Our Commitment to Transparency
ExecEdge is committed to maintaining the highest standards of transparency regarding our advertising relationships and business partnerships. This Advertising Disclosure explains how we may earn revenue through various partnerships while maintaining the integrity and educational quality of our executive training programs.
We believe that our participants and website visitors deserve complete clarity about any financial relationships that might influence the content, recommendations, or resources we provide.
Affiliate Relationships
Affiliate Programs Participation
ExecEdge participates in affiliate marketing programs where we may earn commissions from qualifying purchases or referrals:
- • We may include affiliate links to educational resources, professional development tools, business publications, and technology platforms that we believe enhance executive learning.
- • When you click on certain links and make purchases, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.
- • These commissions help support our platform operations and enable us to provide high-quality executive training content.
- • Our participation in affiliate programs does not influence the educational integrity of our course curriculum or program design.
Commission-Based Link Explanations
Understanding how affiliate compensation works:
- 1. Link Identification: Affiliate links may appear in program materials, resource recommendations, or supplementary content sections.
- 2. Commission Structure: We typically earn a percentage of the sale price when a participant purchases through our affiliate links.
- 3. No Extra Cost: Affiliate commissions do not increase the price you pay for products or services.
- 4. Tracking Technology: Cookies and tracking pixels may be used to attribute purchases to our referral.
- 5. Alternative Options: You are always free to search for products independently rather than using our affiliate links.
