P.S. Shelf is a browser extension for organizing Pinterest pins. This policy explains what data it handles and where it goes.
Everything you save — pin images, titles, your notes, projects, budgets, tags, and status — is stored in your browser's local extension storage. By default, none of this leaves your device.
If you choose to enable cloud sync in Settings, your saved pins are sent to the backend configured there, so you can access them from another device. This is off unless you turn it on.
If you choose to enable AI summaries, tags, or similar-pin detection, the title, description, and notes of the specific pin you're acting on are sent to the AI service configured in Settings to generate that result. This is off unless you turn it on, and only runs for pins you explicitly ask it to process (or, if you enable auto-enrich, for pins as you save them).
P.S. Shelf can optionally connect to your Pinterest account so you can view, create, delete, and export your own boards from within the extension. This uses Pinterest's official OAuth login — you sign in directly with Pinterest, and P.S. Shelf never sees or stores your Pinterest password.
We request the following Pinterest permissions:
Your Pinterest access token is stored only in your own browser's local extension storage. It is never sent to any server we operate other than the token-exchange step required by Pinterest's own OAuth process, and that step only ever forwards the token itself — not your Pinterest password or any other account data.
P.S. Shelf only acts on the Pinterest account you personally authenticate with. It cannot access, view, or modify any other user's boards or pins. You can disconnect your Pinterest account at any time from Settings, which removes the stored token from your browser immediately.
We do not sell your data. We do not share it with advertisers or data brokers. We do not use your Pinterest data for anything other than displaying and organizing it for you inside the extension.
You can delete any saved pin, project, or box at any time within the extension. Disconnecting Pinterest removes your stored access token. Uninstalling the extension removes all locally stored data from your browser.
