Your information

What is kept, and where

There are two places, and they are not the same.

On this device. Everything you do here is saved in this browser: which units you have passed, your scores, which textbook and required-reading tests you have passed, any honours readings you have recorded, the name you registered with, and which programme you chose. If you have not registered, it stays here; once you register, it is also kept at the seminary, as described next.

At the seminary. If you registered, a copy is kept in the seminary’s records so your work survives losing your phone or changing browsers, and so the seminary can keep its student roll and confirm your degrees. That copy holds:

the name you gave
your email address, if you gave one, and whether you confirmed it — a confirmed email is needed to claim a certificate, and is used to send it to you. If you ask (“Email me my code”), your student code is sent to this address and nowhere else; that is also how a second registration under the same name and email is sent back to the record you already have
your country, if you gave one
which programme you are studying, and your stated goal
how you heard about the seminary, if you said
which units you have passed, and when
which textbook and required-reading tests you have passed, and when — on the M.Div. and Th.M. tracks a course with such a test is complete only when it is passed
your written answers (short answers and fill-ins), the result for each, and the feedback you were given
which courses you have completed, and at which level
any certificates issued to you
the language you read the site in, and any notes the seminary has sent you about your progress

If you gave an email and go three weeks without passing a unit, the seminary may write to you once to ask how you are getting on and whether something on the site got in your way (and once, a week after you register, if you have not started). Every note has a link to stop them.

It is not kept under your name or your email. It is kept under a student code, which is the only thing that can reach it. Honours readings you record stay in this browser and are not sent.

Your written answers are sent to our server. When you submit a fill-in or a short answer, it is graded by an AI model running on Cloudflare, the company that hosts this site. The answer and its result are kept as part of your academic record, under your student code. Cloudflare does not use them to train its models. Delete my record, below, erases them with the rest. A faculty member can review any result on request.

The seminary’s records can’t be reached right now

This page could not reach the seminary’s records — your connection may be down, or the records server may be briefly unavailable. Your work on this device is unaffected. Try again later, and this page will show you what is held under your student code and let you delete it.

This is your student code. Anyone who has it can reach your record, so keep it as you would a password.

Delete the seminary’s copy

This removes your name, email, country, programme, every unit record, every test pass, every written answer with its result, and every certificate from the seminary’s records. It cannot be undone, and the seminary keeps no backup of it.

It does not touch your work on this device. Your progress here stays exactly as it is, and you can carry on studying. This browser will simply stop sending anything to the seminary until you say otherwise.

If you also want your work gone from this device, use the last section on this page — and back it up first if you may want it again.

This browser is not sending anything

You asked the seminary to forget you, so nothing from this browser is being sent or kept. Your studies continue here as normal. If you would like the seminary to keep your work safe again, you can say so — a new record is started the next time you pass a unit, with a new student code.

Erase everything in this browser

This removes every trace of your studies from this browser: passed units, scores, your name, your programme, your student code. It cannot be undone and nobody can recover it for you.

If there is any chance you want this work again, make a backup first.

Ask a person

If any of this is unclear, or you would rather someone did it for you, write to the seminary at info@chapalaseminary.org and say what you would like done.
