Pinterest is a new social marketing site that has caught the world's
attention lately. A customer informed us that Pinterest
was infringing on their copyright. As we are big fans of Pinterest we
decided to look into this further and we learned that there is
definitely some copyright issues that you should be aware of. Whatever
your feelings are on the risks vs. rewards of sharing your images
online, you should know that Pinterest may not drive as much traffic
back to your site as you deserve. Furthermore there is some scary
legalese about Pinterest being granted indefinite use to share and
profit from any image shown on their site regardless of who posts it!
Please read the following
blog post to learn more.
If you want to block 'pinning' you should add the following code into the
Custom Header Metatag on each of your pages and galleries:
<meta name="pinterest" content="nopin" />
