- We run a referral program to reward past or current learners ["referrers"] who refer our courses to their colleagues. When a referrer uses our referral form to provide us with the email addresses of their colleagues, we send these colleagues ["referees"] an email containing a unique single-use discount code that will reduce the price of any of our courses by 20%. The codes expire six months after they are sent and can only be used once.
- Email
addresses for referees are collected solely for the purpose of the
referral program and are not stored in our system. We only use the email
addresses to provide the referees with the discount codes.
- The first time a referee purchases a course using a referral discount code the referrer will receive an email containing a unique single-use coupon code for a 30% discount. The discount code can be used on any Clear Horizon Academy course. This code expires six months after it is sent and can only be used once. It can only be used to purchase a single course in the name of the referrer.
- Referrers will only receive one discount code. We do not provide the referrer with a discount for every referee who makes a purchase.
