Pinterest can change these terms at any time, and continuing to use Pinterest after receiving notice means you accept the new terms; your only alternative is to stop using the service.

This provision means that Pinterest can alter the terms governing your use of the platform and your content license obligations, with continued use constituting acceptance, which limits your ability to negotiate or preserve prior terms.
Interpretive note: EU and UK consumer contract law may limit the enforceability of unilateral modifications that materially alter user rights, even with notice, depending on the specific change and jurisdiction.
If Pinterest updates its terms, including the content license or arbitration provisions, continued use of the platform constitutes acceptance of those updated terms; the only way to avoid being bound by changes is to stop using Pinterest and close your account.

"We may update these Terms from time to time. If we update these Terms, we'll notify you of the changes via email or other communication. If you don't accept the changes, you should stop using Pinterest and may close your account. Your continued use of Pinterest following any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms.— Excerpt from Pinterest's Pinterest Terms of Service
1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: For EEA users, unilateral modification of terms is subject to EU consumer contract law, including the Unfair Contract Terms Directive, which may limit Pinterest's ability to make material changes without adequate notice and genuine consent. GDPR also requires that changes affecting the legal basis for data processing be communicated clearly and that consent be re-obtained where required. UK consumer contract regulations contain equivalent protections. 2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The terms assert that notification via email or other communication is sufficient notice, and that continued use constitutes acceptance. In consumer-facing contexts, particularly in the EU and UK, the adequacy of this notice mechanism for material changes may be evaluated under unfair contract terms frameworks. 3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EEA and UK users have the strongest statutory protections against unfair unilateral modification. California and other US states with consumer protection statutes may also limit the enforceability of modifications that materially alter consumer rights without adequate notice and opportunity to reject. 4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Organizations relying on Pinterest's terms for business operations should implement a monitoring process for terms updates, particularly given that changes to the content license or arbitration clause could affect operational and legal risk assessments. 5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should establish a process for reviewing Pinterest terms update notifications and assessing materiality of changes. For EEA-based operations, any changes affecting data processing terms should trigger a review of whether additional consent or notification steps are required under GDPR.
