Pinterest API
Kitchaneers uses the Pinterest API to publish images and Pins from our own website (kitchaneers.com) to our own Pinterest account.

If this connection is disconnected or revoked, we delete that token and any associated Pinterest data within 30 days. Deletion can also be requested at any time by emailing [email protected].
We do not sell, resell, rent, or otherwise redistribute Pinterest content or any Pinterest-derived data to third parties.
