Your info

You don’t need an account to use this site, and we never ask for your name. Most of what you do here stays on your phone, like your streak and your Basecamp check-offs.

When you tap Done, your phone sends us a random ID (just letters and numbers) and the day you read. That’s how we count how many people read each day and move the dots up the mountain. The ID isn’t tied to your name, and tapping Undo takes your mark back off.

If you turn on reminders, your browser gives us an address to send them to. It comes from Apple, Google or Mozilla, depending on your phone, and it doesn’t say who you are. We keep it along with the date you turned reminders on, so we can send the Tue/Thu alert. Turn reminders off anytime and we delete it.

Basecamp reminders are a separate choice. They stay off unless you check the box, and they stop on their own after 4 years or 16 nudges, whichever comes first.

Save your progress is optional. Tap it and you get a three-word code, like brave-cedar-trail. We keep your reading progress under that code: the days you marked done (that’s where your streak comes from) and your Basecamp and patch progress. Anyone with the code can bring your progress back, so keep it to yourself. We can’t look up a lost code, so write it down somewhere. When you want it gone, tap Forget this code in the menu and we delete it from our servers. Parents can ask too. Email the code to hello@bofdevo.com and we’ll delete it.

Group trails are for adult small group leaders at a church. A leader signs in with an email address. We use it to send a one-time sign-in link, and after that we keep only a scrambled version of it. Signing in also puts a cookie in the leader’s browser so they stay signed in for up to 30 days. The leader names the group and shares its link. When a student opens that link and taps Done, the leader sees a made-up nickname like quiet-river-summit, initials if the student chooses to add them, and which days they read that week. Leaders never see a name or a save code. Deleting the group erases its counts and nicknames.

The site runs on Cloudflare. We use their analytics to see how many people visit, and it doesn’t use cookies or collect names. When someone opens a link we shared, like the one in the group text, we count the date and where the link came from. To stop people from guessing save codes, we hold on to a scrambled version of your internet address for a little while, and it clears on its own within a couple of hours. Besides Cloudflare, and the phone service that delivers reminders, nobody else handles any of this, and we never sell it.

This site is meant for students. It doesn’t knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
