4. Data Storage and Security

Your Pinterest OAuth tokens are stored in encrypted, HTTP-only cookies on your browser. We do not store your tokens, personal information, or pin content in any database or server-side persistent storage. All data transmission between your browser and our servers, and between our servers and Pinterest’s API, is encrypted using TLS (Transport Layer Security).

While we implement commercially reasonable security measures, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your information.
