 - `application#url_after_denied_access_when_signed_out`
 - `sessions#url_after_destroy`
 
-They both default to `sign_in_url`. Override this method to change both of their
-behavior, or override them individually to just change one.
+You can override the appropriate method in your subclassed controller or you
+can set a configuration value for either of these URLs:
+
+- `Clearance.configuration.url_after_denied_access_when_signed_out`
+- `Clearance.configuration.url_after_destroy`
+
+Both configurations default to `nil` and if not set will default to
+`sign_in_url` in `sessions_controller.rb` and `authorization.rb` for backwards
+compatibility.
