WHAT INFORMATION DO I NEED TO SIGN UP?

To create your Pickeenoo account, you need to provide basic personal information that helps us verify your identity and connect you with the right community.

1. Required information for registration

When you visit the registration page at https://www.pickeenoo.com/community/registers, you will be asked to fill in the following mandatory fields:

• Name – Your real first and last name. This helps other community members recognize and trust you.

• Username – A unique username that you will use to log in. Choose something memorable that represents you. This username will be visible to other members.

• Email – A valid email address. This is crucial because we will send you a confirmation link to activate your account. Make sure you have access to this email.

• Password – A secure password to protect your account. Choose a strong password with a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols.

• City – The city where you currently live. This helps connect you with local members and relevant ads.

• Country – The country where you are currently based. This is essential for location-based searches and community matching.

• Address – Your street address or general area. You can be as precise or general as you feel comfortable. You can adjust this later in your profile settings.

• Phone number – A contact phone number. While this field may be optional in some cases, providing it makes communication with buyers and sellers much easier and faster.

2. Why we ask for this information

Each piece of information serves a specific purpose:

• Name and username help build trust and recognition in the community.
• Email is used for account verification, security notifications, and important updates.
• Password protects your account from unauthorized access.
• Location details (city, country, address) power the member search engine and help you find relevant local ads and connections.
• Phone number enables quick communication for transactions and community networking.

3. Privacy and security

Your personal information is handled with care:

• Your email and phone number are NOT publicly visible by default.
• You control what information appears on your public profile.
• Your address helps with location-based features but can be kept general (neighborhood level) if you prefer.
• Only share detailed contact information (phone, exact address) with people you choose to connect with through messages.

4. After providing this information

Once you submit the registration form with all required fields:

• You will receive a confirmation email within 2 minutes.
• Click the link in that email to verify your account.
• Log in at https://www.pickeenoo.com/cb-login with your username and password.
• Complete your detailed profile (languages, interests, expat status) to maximize your visibility in the community.

5. What you DON'T need at registration

Registration is simple and quick. You do NOT need:

• Credit card or payment information
• Government ID or passport (only needed later if you want the optional Verified badge)
• Business license or company details
• Social media accounts
• References or recommendations

IMPORTANT: Make sure all information is accurate, especially your email address. An incorrect email means you won't receive the confirmation link and won't be able to activate your account.
