How to deactivate your Pinterest account Oct 4th 2013, 13:00, by Nick Mediati You've pinned your last pin and you want to leave Pinterest. The good news is that Pinterest makes it easy to walk away. The bad news? You can only sort of leave. As it turns out, you can't compltely delete your account on Pinterest. Instead, you can deactivate your account, which removes your profile and pins from Pinterest and puts it in a state of suspended animation. To deactivate your account, visit Pinterest.com and click your username in the upper right corner, then select Settings from the menu that pops up. Next, scroll to the bottom of the Settings page and press the Deactivate Account button. Are you sure you want to leave? Pinterest will ask you to confirm that you want to say goodbye. At this point, Pinterest will ask you to confirm that you really want to deactivate your account. Press the Deactivate Now button, and Pinterest will remove your account pages and pins from the site, and it will unlink your Pinterest account from your Facebook and Twitter accounts (if you happened to link them). Note that you have to visit the Pinterest website to say goodbye; you can't deactivate your account from the phone or tabet apps.
