DMCA Policy

PinsVid respects the work of creators. We respond to copyright notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and similar laws, and we act quickly on every valid request.

Send a DMCA notice

Good to know: PinsVid does not host or store videos. Our tool retrieves files that are already publicly available on Pinterest when a user requests them. To remove a video from the internet entirely, you should also report it to Pinterest through its own copyright process. We can block specific Pin links from being processed by PinsVid.

The process

How a DMCA request works

1

You send a notice

Email us a complete notice with the details listed below.

2

We review it

We check that the notice is complete and valid, usually within 2 to 3 business days.

3

We take action

We block the reported Pin links from our tool and confirm by email.

4

Counter-notice

If someone believes the action was a mistake, they can send a counter-notice.

What your notice must include

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3), a valid notice includes:

  1. Your physical or electronic signature, as the copyright owner or a person authorised to act for them
  2. A description of the copyrighted work you believe is being infringed
  3. The exact Pinterest Pin link(s) you want blocked on PinsVid
  4. Your contact details: full name, postal address, phone number and email address
  5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law
  6. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the owner or authorised to act on the owner’s behalf

If you think we made a mistake

Filing a counter-notice

If a Pin link was blocked and you believe this was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g). It should include your signature, the blocked link, a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe the material was blocked by mistake, your name, address and phone number, and your consent to the jurisdiction of the appropriate court. We will forward valid counter-notices to the original complainant and may restore access in 10 to 14 business days unless they inform us that they have filed a court action.

Please note

  • Incomplete notices may delay our response.
  • Knowingly false claims can lead to legal liability under § 512(f).
  • We may block access for users who repeatedly misuse the service.
