Our User Content Policy

Unless you really enjoy reading legal terms, you're probably here because we noticed something wonderful you posted on social media, and we asked for permission to use it. So first of all, thanks for being your fun, creative self. We love it when you use Pier 1 as your inspiration to do something unique, beautiful and totally you.

 Also, you may be wondering why we asked you to respond to our request with #sharemypier1. That's your way of giving us permission to reproduce your photo on our social media channels, emails, website, catalogs or other marketing pieces. Whenever possible, we'll give you credit by posting your handle or byline.

But without further ado, let's get to the exciting stuff. Here are our terms and conditions explaining exactly what happens when you respond to our request with #sharemypier1 and/or submit, post, upload and/or display user content to other hashtags sponsored or affiliated with the Pier 1 Imports brand.
