We have collected this information from you, your devices, our partners, advertisers, and other third parties.

We do not collect or process sensitive personal information about you for the purpose of inferring characteristics about you.

We keep your information only so long as we need it to provide the Pinterest services to you and fulfill the purposes described here and in our Privacy Policy. When we no longer need to use your information and there is no need for us to keep it to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, we’ll either remove it from our systems or depersonalize it so that we can't identify you.

To show you advertisements about Pinterest on other sites and apps, we sometimes allow third parties to collect information about you through cookies and similar technologies or disclose information to them for the purpose of promoting Pinterest. Under California law, these activities may constitute “sharing” or “selling”. In the preceding 12 months, such activities involved collecting the following categories of personal information and sharing them with the following categories of third parties:

We do not knowingly “share” or “sell” information about users under 16.
