Summary

These Terms govern how you can use Pinterest and what rights you give up when you post content. When you post anything, Pinterest and others can use, modify, and monetize it worldwide without paying you. If you have a dispute with Pinterest, you must use arbitration rather than a court, and you cannot join a class action—and Pinterest's maximum financial liability to you for any harm is $100.

Analysis

Pinterest's Terms of Service establish the conditions under which users may access and post content to the Service. Users grant Pinterest, its affiliates, service providers, and other users a non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable, worldwide license to use, store, display, reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, monetize, and distribute User Content, with no entitlement to payment or revenue share. Pinterest caps its aggregate liability to any user at $100 and excludes all indirect, incidental, special, consequential, and punitive damages, including lost profits, revenues, data, and goodwill. All disputes arising from the Terms or the Service must be resolved through binding arbitration or, for qualifying claims, small claims court, with users waiving jury trial and class or representative proceedings. Commercial use of the Service requires a separate business account and acceptance of Pinterest's Business Terms, and users who engage in commercial activity without that agreement bear indemnification obligations toward Pinterest, Inc., Pinterest Europe Ltd., and their affiliates.

What this means for you

As a Pinterest user, your posted content may be used, modified, and monetized by Pinterest, its affiliates, service providers, and other users worldwide, and you are not entitled to any share of that revenue. Pinterest's total financial liability to you for any harm related to the Service is capped at $100, and categories such as lost data, lost income, or loss of goodwill are excluded entirely. Disputes must go through binding arbitration rather than court, and you waive the right to participate in a class or representative proceeding. If your account has been disabled for violating Pinterest's Terms, policies, or for legal reasons, you may not create a new account without Pinterest's express written permission, granted at its sole discretion. If you wish to use Pinterest for commercial purposes, you must create a business account and agree to Pinterest's Business Terms of Service before doing so.
