Section 01
About PrayAlly
PrayAlly is an anonymous prayer support platform that connects people seeking prayer ("Seekers") with approved Christian prayer partners ("PrayAllies") for live voice prayer sessions.
Prayer sessions are:
- Anonymous
- Browser-based
- Live
- Not recorded
PrayAlly is a spiritual support platform and is not a counseling, therapy, medical, crisis intervention, or emergency service.
Section 02
Information We Collect

We only ask for a first name — never a last name, phone number, or address. Your first name is shared with your PrayAlly for that prayer session only.
Information from PrayAllies
To become a PrayAlly, we collect:
- Full name

Anonymous Prayer Sessions
Protecting user privacy is central to PrayAlly.
During a prayer session:
- Seekers never see a PrayAlly's personal information.
- PrayAllies only see a Seeker's first name — no other personal information.
- No phone numbers are shared.
- No email addresses are shared.
- No last names are displayed during matching or prayer sessions.
Only the information necessary to facilitate the prayer session—such as an optional prayer note—is shared between participants.

- Improve the platform
When information is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymized.
