There are a few ways you can choose how cookies are used on Pinterest:
If you’re located in the EU or UK, you can adjust your cookie preferences at any time by visiting your Privacy settings and editing your Cookies Preferences. If you’ve consented to a category of non-essential cookies and change your mind later, you can immediately revoke consent by turning off that cookie category in your settings.
In the Personalisation section of your settings, you can decide whether we use info from our partners and other services to personalise Pinterest for you or whether we use information we learn about you on Pinterest to market Pinterest to you on other sites and apps. Learn more about your options in the Help Centre.
There are also online tools, such as the Digital Advertising Alliance's Browser Check site, which allow you to choose how cookies are used throughout the web based on the device and browser you are using.
Your browser probably gives you cookie choices. For example, most browsers let you block 'third-party cookies', which are cookies from sites other than the one you’re visiting. Those options vary from browser to browser, so check your browser settings for more info.
Some browsers also have a privacy setting called “Do Not Track”, which we support. This setting is another way for you to decide whether we use info from our partners and other services to customise Pinterest for you. Learn more in the Help Centre.
Finally, your mobile device has settings that allow you to control how ad partners can use information about your use of mobile applications to show ads to you. On Android devices, this setting is called 'Opt out of Ads Personalization'. On Apple devices, you can adjust your choice by selecting Privacy, then Tracking. Learn more in the Help Centre.
