Account and privacy: passwordless sign-in, open rules, full deletion

People usually ask three account questions only when something has gone wrong: how do I sign in, what is kept about me, how do I delete it all. Here are the answers up front.

No password — a one-time code instead

Signing in to Prayk needs no password. Enter your email or phone number, type the 6-digit one-time code that arrives, and you're in. With no password there is nothing to steal: leaked credential lists, reused passwords and the whole "forgot my password" ordeal simply don't apply.

You don't need to register in advance to post, either: you fill the form as a guest and confirmation appears as one step at the end.

Your number isn't in the open

Your phone number is never printed openly on the listing page — it shows masked and is revealed only when someone clicks "Show number". That blocks bulk harvesting and spam calls; the mechanism is explained separately.

The cookie choice is yours

On your first visit a cookie notice appears with a real choice. Analytics only starts after consent, and the Cookie settings link in the footer lets you change your mind later. The ones strictly needed to run the site are described separately.

The rules are written down

Three documents sit at the bottom of every page: the Privacy policy, the User agreement and the Public offer. They also state where artificial intelligence is used (listing drafts, categories, moderation).

You delete the account yourself

No need to email anyone: there is an account deletion page that lists openly what is deleted and what is kept (transaction records that must be retained by law, for instance). The steps for deleting from the app are on the same page.

And to take down a listing you don't need to delete the account — every listing can be deactivated or removed individually from your cabinet.
