Shuffles Privacy Notice
California Residents: Please see our California Privacy Statement and Notice at Collection here.
The Pinterest team created the Shuffles app to give you a simple and powerful tool for collaborative collages.
You can only use Shuffles by logging in with an existing Pinterest account, and our Pinterest Privacy Policy also applies to Shuffles. This Shuffles Privacy Notice explains some additional things we’d like you to know about the info we collect and use in connection with Shuffles and the choices you have when you use Shuffles.
We will only use your information when we have a proper legal basis for doing so, such as where we have a legitimate interest in using your information (for example, recommending to you Pins to use as a base for collages), or where we obtain your consent to the use of your information (for example, where we ask you for consent, we will use the data for the purpose which we explain at that time).
You have the same profile for Shuffles as you do for the rest of Pinterest, so some Pinterest account info, like your name and profile photo, will be shown in Shuffles. When people you interact with on Pinterest join Shuffles, we’ll help you connect.
We’ll also use some info from your activity on Pinterest to improve your experience on Shuffles. For example, we’ll recommend Pins you could use to create collages in Shuffles based on Pins you’ve saved to your profile on Pinterest. We also use some info from your activity on Shuffles to make recommendations on Shuffles. For example, we’ll recommend Shuffles or Shufflers you may like based on other Shuffles you’ve liked or commented on. Additionally we’ll also use some info from your activity on Shuffles to improve your experience on Pinterest.
Here are a few other things to know about Shuffles:
- Phone Numbers: When you sign up for Shuffles, we may prompt you to provide your phone number. We’ll use your phone number to help you and your friends find each other on Shuffles, and for account management and security.
- Contacts: In certain countries and depending on your age, you’ll have the option to provide Shuffles with access to your contacts. We’ll use this information to help you and your friends find each other on Shuffles, and to let you invite friends to join Shuffles who haven’t yet.
- Collages: When you create a collage, you’ll have the option to keep it private, share it with selected friends on Shuffles, or post it publicly within Shuffles, depending on your age. When you post a collage publicly on Shuffles, it will be posted publicly on your Pinterest profile, too, unless you opt out in your settings. You can also delete any collage after you post it. If you make your collage visible to others, they will be able to add comments or reactions to it, or share it themselves. Shuffles includes a few other collaboration features you can choose to use. For example, if you add content (like photos or art) to a public collage, other Shuffles users will be able to use this content in their collages, too. If you share your collage, users with access to it will be able to create a “remix” – a new collage based on the one you originally created.
- Comments: You can delete or edit any comment you’ve made on a collage. Regardless of the setting associated with your Comments in your Pinterest account, Comments are available on all public collages within Shuffles.
- Shuffles Messages: If you use Shuffles messaging, depending on your age, you can leave message threads you no longer want to be a part of and you can block other users you don’t want to interact with.
- Notifications: You can choose whether to receive push notifications from Shuffles. You will be asked if you want to receive them when you first access Shuffles. You can turn off or adjust push notifications preferences within your device settings menu or in the Shuffles settings. If we send you marketing materials by email, you can unsubscribe by following the instructions in those communications.
- Profile: Because Shuffles is part of your Pinterest account, when you update your profile on Pinterest, any profile info we show on Shuffles will also update. To update your profile, please visit the settings menu of your Pinterest account. Regardless of the setting associated with your Profile in your Pinterest account, depending on your age, Profiles are public on Shuffles.
- Share settings: If you delete a collage or make it private on Shuffles, it will automatically be deleted from your Pinterest profile. If you delete a collage or move it to a secret board on Pinterest, it will not automatically be deleted or made private on Shuffles.
- Other Account Options: To access, edit, or delete your account data visit the Pinterest Help Center.
