How to temporarily disable your Pinterest account
When you deactivate a Pinterest account
If you have chosen to disable your profile, your folders will no longer be visible on Pinterest and the platform will unlink your Facebook and Twitter accounts , if they are connected. You can take a test and access your profile URL (pinterest.com/name) to make sure your account is no longer active or visible.
Worth the warning:
Do not sign in to your account to confirm the deactivation. Upon logging in , the account is activated.

- Sign in to Pinterest;
- Click on “…” in the upper right corner;

- Click on “Deactivate account” at the bottom of “Basic account information”;
