1. Information We Collect & How It Is Used

PinFetcher operates primarily as a privacy-focused utility. We do not require account registration, usernames, passwords, credit card information, or contact details to use our basic Pinterest media extraction tools.

  • Log Files & Technical Telemetry: PinFetcher follows standard web server procedures by utilizing automated log files. Information gathered in log files includes Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamps, referring/exit pages, and click counts. These details are not linked to any personally identifiable information and are strictly analyzed for server load management, threat mitigation, and system diagnostic purposes.
  • Extraction Input Queries: URLs submitted into our extraction form are processed in real time by our server nodes to retrieve media metadata from Pinterest servers. Input URLs are not saved into persistent user tracking databases or sold to third parties.
