2.1 Service content

The content of this service refers to the service provided by CMHK for users to log in to Internet applications based on their mobile phone numbers (‘the Service’). The specific content of the Service is as follows: i.e. through the network authentication capability of Mobile Authentication, it realises the ability of Internet application users to automatically log in using their local mobile phone numbers without entering account passwords.
