    I believe "they are sent" is the correct and intended language here.

    agree with @gmaxwell

    Meta comment: now that BIPs are on github, under what rules can modifications be made? I believe they should require consent from at least the original author.

    "require" is perhaps too strong— what happens if the author is absentee? And if the change is very obviously correct, pure copyediting, etc?

    Ok, my mistake. "data they receive" or "data they are sent to" might make it a bit clearer.

    "Benjyc, did Alice enjoy the package she was sent?"

    Good examples for the grammar.
    Nouns may still be better than pronouns for precision where possible.

    Whether it reduces what is received or what is sent is a non-trivial function of where/how the bloom filter is applied and is significant for network billing and storage concerns. "reduce the amount of transaction data they are sent" - conveys filtered at remote peer, prior to sending (appropriately).

    "reduce the amount of transaction data sent to them by their peers" - slightly more precise as the BIP doesn't filter what is sent to others.

    tl;dr it is fine as it is.
