-IPFS nodes treat the data they store like a cache, meaning that there is no guarantee that the data will continue to be stored. "Pinning" a CID tells an IPFS server that the data is important and mustn't be thrown away.
+When an IPFS node interacts with the network, it automatically stores copies of data that it comes across. If you load a web page through an IPFS gateway `localhost:8080/ipfs/QmXoyp...` then the node your local node will store a copy of the website for a short period of time. Part of the IPFS data lifecycle is _garbage collection_. This is when a node deletes old or unused data from disk to help save space and keep the node efficient. IPFS nodes treat the data they store like a cache, meaning that there is no guarantee that the data will continue to be stored.
 
-You should pin any content you consider important in order to ensure that content is retained over the long term. Since data important to someone else may not be important to you, pinning enables you to have control over the disk space and data retention you need.
+To ensure data stays around, you can _pin_ files to the node and stop them from throw into the _garbage collection_ cycle. _Pinning_ a CID tells an IPFS node that the data is important and should not be deleted. You should pin any content you consider important to ensure that it's retained over the long term. When garbage collection is triggered on a node, any pinned content is automatically exempt from deletion. Non-pinned data may be deleted.
 
-## Pinning in context
-
-Your IPFS node can store data based on different kinds of user events. For instance, you can add a file with `ipfs add ...`. It will also store data you request, such as by loading a web page through the gateway (`http://localhost:8080/ipfs/QmXoypizjW3WknFiJnKLwHCnL72vedxjQkDDP1mXWo6uco`) or with `ipfs cat ...`. Your node will consult with other IPFS peers to find these requested data, and will store the results in the local cache. `ipfs add` will automatically pin the content, but other IPFS commands do not include automatic pinning.
+## Pinning services
 
-When garbage collection is triggered on a node, any pinned content is automatically exempt from deletion. Non-pinned data may be deleted; if you request it again later, the data can be retrieved from another node.
+To ensure that your important data is retained, you may want to use a pinning service. These services run lots of IPFS nodes and allow users to pin data on those nodes for a fee. Some services offer free storage-allowance for new users. Pinning services are handy when:

+- Your computer is a laptop, phone, or tablet that will have intermittent connectivity to the network. Still, you want to be able to access your data on IPFS from anywhere at any time, even when the device you added it from is offline.
+- You want a backup that ensures your data is always available from another computer on the network if you accidentally delete or garbage-collect your data on your own computer.
 
-To ensure that your important data is retained, you may want to use a pinning service. Such a service normally trades money for the service of guaranteeing they'll keep your data pinned. Some cases where this might be important to you:
