  • The affiliate program ONLY supports activity that results in sending purchase referrals to Sex Ed Rescue and the Sex Ed Shop. Commissions will NOT be approved if they are suspected or proven to originate outside your affiliate link, even if the customer uses your link to purchase. Specifically, affiliate links on “coupon code” sites will not be approved for commissions attributed to said site(s).
