Overseeing our efforts

Composed of 11 individuals diverse in skills, tenure, gender and age, Pinterest’s Board of Directors oversees the company’s strategic direction and stewards our commitment to accountability and transparency. 

Promoting ethical conduct for employees and suppliers

As we advance our mission to create a positive and inspiring place on the internet, it’s not just what we do that matters, but how we do it. Our Ethics and Compliance program serves as the cornerstone of our operations, fostering a culture rooted in integrity.

For employees

All employees must adhere to our Code of Business Conduct & Ethics, which outlines the conduct expected from everyone at Pinterest, and complete Code of Conduct training upon hire and again every two years.

For suppliers

Before working with Pinterest, all suppliers must read and acknowledge our Supplier Code of Conduct, which establishes expectations for operating lawfully, ethically and responsibly.

Transparency reporting

Published twice yearly, Pinterest’s transparency reports detail how we’re evolving our content moderation and enforcement practices to keep up with new trends and user behaviors, ensuring we continue to create a safe and inclusive environment on our platform.
