Affiliate terms

Commission

• You earn 30% of the first purchase of a customer you referred. A customer is an account that has never paid us before.
• Only the first purchase counts. Later purchases of the same customer earn nothing.
• The commission is on the amount actually paid, after any refund. A refunded order earns nothing; a partly refunded order earns 30% of what was kept.

Cookie window and attribution

• A visit through your link (?aff=YOURCODE on any address of Every Debut) sets a first-party cookie for 60 days that holds only a random visit id. If the person makes their first purchase within those 60 days, the purchase is yours.
• Visitors from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, and visitors whose country we cannot tell, get no cookie. For them the purchase is yours only if they start the checkout in the same visit, from the page your link opened (the address carries the visit, and it is lost on the first click to another page). In practice only links straight to an order form (/advertise/order?aff=YOURCODE or /stories/order?aff=YOURCODE) can earn from them. If they leave and come back later, the purchase is not credited.
• If the person later follows another affiliate's link, the newer link counts.
• We record the attribution on the order when it is placed. Our records decide.

Pending, approval and payment

• Each commission is pending for 30 days, the refund window, and then approved.
• Once a month we pay approved commissions by PayPal or Wise to the address you give in your dashboard, from $50 in total. Below that, the amount carries over to the next month.
• We may ask for tax forms (for example a W-9 or W-8BEN) before we pay. We pay in US dollars; fees of your payment service are yours.
• If an order is refunded after its commission was paid, we deduct that commission from your next payout; your dashboard shows each deduction.

Not allowed

• Paid search ads on our brand name or its misspellings, and ads that look like they come from us.
• Spam of any kind: unsolicited e-mail, messages, comments or posts.
• Self-referral: buying through your own link, from your own account or a second account of yours. We refuse a commission when the buyer is your account, or when the visit or the purchase came from a network your account uses: the same IPv4 address, or the same IPv6 /64, seen when you joined, in a current session, or in your own orders of the last 90 days. We compare keyed hashes, never the addresses. Your dashboard lists every purchase we did not count, with the reason; write to us to ask for a review.
• Promising anything we do not sell: ranks, points, votes, badges, featuring or review speed cannot be bought.
• Cookie stuffing, hidden links, or sending traffic you pay for by the click without telling us.

If you break these terms, we may cancel commissions that are not paid yet and close your affiliate account.

Ending

You can leave at any time by writing to hello@everydebut.com; approved commissions from $50 are still paid. If you delete your account, commissions that are not paid yet lapse; paid commissions and payout records are kept for tax purposes, without your account. We may change or end the program with 30 days' notice on this page; commissions earned before that are paid under the terms that applied.
