How the Pinterest Application Uses Information
When operational, Garter Girl Creative Pin Scheduler will use authorized Pinterest account information and user-provided content to:
Connect Pinterest accounts with user authorization.
Retrieve available Pinterest boards.
Allow users to upload and organize Pin graphics.
Create and edit Pin titles, descriptions, and destination URLs.

Support the management of multiple authorized Pinterest business accounts.
Content publishing will be based on user instructions and approvals.
The Application will not independently select new content for publication without user authorization.
We will not sell Pinterest API data or use Pinterest account information to train artificial intelligence models.
4. Pinterest Integration and Authorization
Garter Girl Creative Pin Scheduler is intended to integrate with Pinterest through Pinterest's official API.
Connecting a Pinterest account requires authorization through Pinterest's authentication process. Users control whether they authorize the Application to access their Pinterest account.
The Application will use Pinterest information only as necessary to provide authorized services and in accordance with applicable Pinterest developer requirements.
Users may revoke the Application's access through the applicable Pinterest account settings.
Revoking authorization may prevent the Application from accessing the account or publishing previously scheduled content.
The Application will not continue publishing through an account after its authorization has been revoked.
When operational, the Application will provide a process for requesting account disconnection and deletion of associated information.
Pinterest operates independently of the Company. Information collected or processed directly by Pinterest is subject to Pinterest's own Privacy Policy:
https://policy.pinterest.com/en/privacy-policy
5. How We Protect Your Information
We take reasonable measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, misuse, and loss.
Our security practices are intended to be appropriate for the nature of the information collected and the services provided.
As the Application is developed, we intend to implement security measures appropriate for connected Pinterest accounts, including secure authentication, restricted access to account information, and appropriate protection of authorization credentials.
The specific technical safeguards, hosting services, and storage systems used by the Application will be determined during development and reflected in this policy before public launch.
Although we work to protect information, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
If a security incident occurs, we will take appropriate action and provide notifications when required by applicable law.
6. How Long We Keep Your Information
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our services, maintain legitimate business records, resolve disputes, meet legal obligations, or fulfill other lawful purposes.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.
You may request deletion of your personal information by contacting us using the information in Section 15, subject to applicable legal exceptions.
Pinterest Data Retention and Deletion
Information obtained through Pinterest's API will be handled in accordance with Pinterest's applicable developer requirements, including restrictions on storing and retaining Pinterest data.
When required by Pinterest's policies or applicable law, we will delete Pinterest information within the applicable required period.
We will establish appropriate procedures for removing connected account information, revoking stored credentials, and managing scheduled publishing jobs when an account is disconnected or a valid deletion request is received.
These procedures will be finalized before the Application becomes publicly available.
Revoking Pinterest authorization does not necessarily delete information previously provided directly to the Application. Users may separately request deletion of information maintained by the Company.
7. Sharing Information With Third Parties
We do not sell your personal information or Pinterest account data.
We may share information with trusted third-party service providers when reasonably necessary to operate our business, Website, and Application.
Depending on the services being used, these providers may include:
Website Hosting and Technical Services: Providers that host our Website, maintain databases, store files, or support application infrastructure.
Email Marketing Providers: Services that help us deliver newsletters, educational materials, and other communications to individuals who have requested or consented to receive them.

Customer Service and Business Support Providers: Services that assist with support requests, communications, and business operations.
Pinterest: Information necessary to publish content and perform authorized actions will be transmitted to Pinterest through its API.
Third-party providers may process information only as permitted by their agreements with us and applicable law.
We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with legal obligations, respond to lawful requests, protect our rights, investigate misuse, or protect the security of our services.
If our business undergoes a merger, acquisition, or transfer of assets, relevant information may be transferred subject to applicable legal requirements.
8. Email Marketing and Communications
When you voluntarily subscribe to our email list or request marketing communications, we may send you educational content, updates, promotional offers, and information about our products or services.
You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link provided in those communications or contacting us directly.
Unsubscribing from marketing communications does not prevent us from sending essential transactional, account-related, or service communications when appropriate.
We will not automatically add users to marketing email lists solely because they authorize a Pinterest account connection, unless they separately consent or another lawful basis applies.
