Your visual content, product photos, or brand assets on Pinterest may be "pinned" without your permission and shared across different boards. This is a common issue especially for e-commerce and design-focused brands.
Reporting a single pin
Tap the three-dot menu in the top right of the pin and select "Report Pin," specifying the violation type (copyright, trademark, misleading content).
Copyright / trademark complaints
Pinterest offers separate official forms for copyright and trademark violations. These forms require you to submit documents proving the work/mark belongs to you.
Why is this such a common problem?
Pinterest's "pin" and "repin" mechanism means an image can break away from its original source and be re-shared across thousands of different boards — making it difficult to track the original source and permission status.
Achernar's Link Isolation service detects unauthorized use on visual sharing platforms, including Pinterest, and manages the removal process.
