“ je t’en prie/ je vous en prie” .It is polite.
“Il n’y a pas de quoi” . It is friendly and can be slightly familiar but it’s informal and acceptable.
French etiquette simply would advise you not to answer.
“c’est un plaisir” or “avec plaisir” “c’est mon plaisir” is polite.
“De rien” is not correct although it is often heard. Avoid it. It should be “Ce n’est rien”.

“Pas de problème” is common and sounds uneducated. It’s often used though.
