Accountability

Covenant Eyes Internet Accountability differs from filtering in that it doesn’t block any websites you visit. Instead, it monitors all the sites you visit and sends a report to your Accountability Partner.

Here’s how it plays out:

Step 1: Pick Your Partner

Your Accountability Partner should be someone you trust and feel comfortable with, and who feels comfortable calling you out if you’re starting to go down sketchy paths, like a friend or mentor. If you’re not sure who to pick, don’t worry! You can always add a partner later. (Who should be my Accountability Partner?)

Accountability Step 2: Sign Up and Download

Once you’ve signed up for Internet Accountability and downloaded the software, just use the Internet like you normally do. While you’re online, Covenant Eyes Accountability works in the background, recording and rating every site you visit. (What do our ratings mean?)

NOTE: You will add your Accountability Partner for free after completing the sign-up process.

Step 3: Receive a Report

Once a week, your Accountability Partner will get a report listing the sites you’ve visited, and you and your partner can view these reports online at our Member Center at any time. Unlike your Internet history, which can be cleared, you can’t delete anything from these activity reports – what you visit, your partner will see. (View a report.)

Accountability Step 4: Start a Conversation

Now that your Accountability Partner has seen your report, he or she should feel free to talk to you about it. Together this online transparency will help you learn to use the Internet with integrity.
