The reason they have you do this is to prove that your account is linked to
your site. Otherwise anyone could claim ownership of the site and put their own
logo on the pinterest page.
Privacy is only implicated to the extent that you wish to hide the connection
between the website and the pinterest account.
Hope this helps!
