Policy primer burrows
- 1. Danielle Burrows Policy primer Net303 Pinterest Terms of Service
- 2. Pinterest is a social networking site based on the saving, organising and sharing of images. The site allows people to bookmark content in the form of virtual pins. These pins are arranged onto user created boards.
- 3. Users can save content such as photos, links and quotes to their Pinterest boards. Pin content can be user generated, come from elsewhere online, or be re-saved from other users’ pins.
- 4. In order to start pinning, users must create a Pinterest account. The process involves providing personally identifiable information (PII) such as name, email address, age and gender. Pinterest (2016)
- 5. By using Pinterest, users are bound to Pinterest’s Terms of Service. However, these terms are not bought to the attention of the user as they activate their account, nor in the general use of the site. !
- 6. Users must find the Terms of Service document manually. The link can be found tucked away in the footer of a drop down menu. The Privacy documents are also found here. (Pinterest, 2016)
- 7. Unfortunately many people don’t read or fully understand the Terms of Service to which they are bound when using Pinterest and other social media sites (Goettke & Christiana, 2007). (CollegeDegrees360, 2012)
- 8. Make sure this isn’t you! (Agostini, 2007)
- 9. 2There are two important reasons to read and understand these terms.
- 10. 1. Your Privacy Information that you explicitly provide (profile information) and implicitly provide (searches, pins, boards) say a lot about you1.. By default all this information is publicly searchable using search engines2. (1 Barbaro & Zetter, 2006; Leaver, Wilson & Balnaves, 2012; Marwick & boyd, 2014). (2 Pinterest, 2016)
- 11. Your pins indicate what you are interested in. Renovating your bedroom? Organising a child’s birthday party? Advertisers of products related to these activities can target you through Pinterest and their partner sites. Board 1 (Byrd Design, n.d.; Holtum, n.d; Pe, 2011) Board 2 (Amorim, 2012; Style Me Pretty Living, 2012 ; One Charming Party, 2009)
- 12. Other information, including activities on other sites you visit, can also be collected from you by Pinterest and their partners and advertisers, unless you change your Privacy Settings. Changing your settings is as easy as checking the YES options under your profile settings. (Pinterest, 2016)
- 13. 2. Your obligations As a Pinterest user, you are required to abide by “all applicable laws”. This includes copyright law. It is solely your responsibility to ensure content that you post is allowed to be shared on Pinterest3 (3Pinterest, 2016; Carpenter, 2012).
- 14. You can safely respect copyright laws by pinning content: • that you have created and therefore own the copyright of • that encourages you to share by providing the Pinterest “Save” button • is licensed to share through Creative Commons Users may also be able to save images using the fair use defence, however this is subject to interpretation by courts4 (4 Carpenter, 2012)
- 15. Pinterest is a great tool for creatively organising and sharing ideas. Use it and have fun! But remember to read the Terms of Service and adjust your privacy settings as it is a public platform. And respect copyright and other laws in regards to what and how you pin. (MKHMarketing, 2011)
