Pinterest Pixel: advertising cookies and consent

Pinterest Pixel is used for advertising, conversion measurement or campaign personalisation. These purposes may involve tracking technologies used to measure or associate visitor behaviour.

Advertising trackers generally require prior consent. Integrating Pinterest Pixel with tarteaucitron makes it possible to control its activation according to the visitor’s choice.

Managing Pinterest Pixel with tarteaucitron

When Pinterest Pixel is integrated through tarteaucitron, its activation is managed according to the visitor's consent choice. The service can therefore be loaded only when the corresponding permission has been granted and the visitor can later change this choice through the consent interface.

Cookies and storage used by Pinterest Pixel

The current tarteaucitron integration declares 8 cookies associated with Pinterest Pixel:

  • _pinterest_sess
  • _pinterest_ct
  • _pinterest_ct_mw
  • _pinterest_ct_rt
  • _epik
  • _derived_epik
  • _pin_unauth
  • _pinterest_ct_ua

This list corresponds to the cookies currently declared in the tarteaucitron service definition. The service provider may change its technical implementation over time.
