There comes a point where you do not want so many social networks, perhaps you are no longer interested in the content that is shared in this.It could be any reason! And luckily, it 's too easy to eliminate one account of Pinterest , a little below will teach you how to get it from both desktop and mobile devices..
How to delete or remove a Pinterest account from Windows, Mac or Linux
The first thing we will have to do is open the web browser that we use and log in to the official Pinterest website . Once we have entered our account, in the upper right corner, we will have to click on the icon in the form of an arrow pointing down.
When it opens, we will see a few options, the one that really interests us is the one that says "Configuration"..
Once we are in configuration, we will go to the left sidebar and we will have to click on "Account Settings".
This way, Pinterest will open a new page. Here we will have to scroll to the end and click on "Delete account". It takes us to a new page called "Delete account" where we will have to click on "Continue"..
In the window "Let's say why you are leaving", we will select the reason why we are deleting the account. After this we will click on "Send email".
The social network will send an email with a link to confirm the cancellation of the account. So we will have to enter the email that is associated and in the inbox should be the confirmation that Pinterest requires. When you open it, the only thing left to do is click on "Yes, delete account."
In case we regret it, we have 14 days to reactivate the account. How? We simply log back in as normal.
Delete account from a mobile device
It is also possible to delete a Pinterest account from a mobile device, be it iPad, iPhone or Android, we are going to use the official application for this. Once open, we go to the bottom bar of the app and click on the profile icon.
Once we are in the profile, we go to the upper right and click on the three ellipsis.
In the drop-down menu, we will click on "Settings" to access the configuration options of our account.
Now, we go to "Account Settings".
We scroll down to the end and we can see that we find the option "Delete account".
When we click on this option, a message will appear where it warns us a little about what it means to delete an account, we simply click on "Continue".
Now we are going to see a menu where it will ask us why we decided to leave the social network, we give our answer and press "Send email".
Next, we will have to check the email that is linked to the account in question and we will have to confirm it. In this way our Pinterest account will be deleted.
