Report copied copyrighted creator material on Pinterest

Pinterest provides a copyright reporting route for rightsholders and authorized agents. Its requirements focus on original copyrighted works, the precise allegedly infringing Pins and legally accurate claimant statements.

What to do

  1. Determine whether you own the copyrighted original image or video, or are authorized by its owner.
  2. Collect the original work's identifying information and the specific Pinterest Pin URLs.
  3. Review whether reuse may be licensed, permitted or covered by an exception before asserting infringement.
  4. Use Pinterest's official copyright reporting form or designated agent instructions.
  5. Supply the contact, work and infringing-content information Pinterest requires.
  6. Review any required good-faith and authorization statements carefully before signing.
  7. Save the submission details and note whether Pinterest requests more evidence.
  8. Verify removal at the exact reported Pin URL, and distinguish it from search-result visibility.
Important: Reporting, acknowledgment, a platform decision, source removal, and search removal are distinct outcomes. A report is not a guarantee of removal.

Copyright owner requirement

Pinterest says only a copyright owner or their authorized agent should submit copyright infringement reports.

Intimate imagery is different

If the person depicted does not own copyright, Pinterest's NCII or privacy route may be more appropriate than a false copyright assertion.

Common questions

Can I file because I'm in the picture?

Not necessarily. Being depicted and owning copyright are different facts.

Can an agency submit for a creator?

The agency must have real authorization from the copyright owner.

Use a coordinated case

Reclaim keeps website removal, Google/search removal, deadlines, verification and monitoring separate so one successful step is not mistaken for complete removal.
