NoFollow Affiliate links from (very) shady websites will effect rankings?

[KSafer]

Should I be worried , and if so what to do, if affiliates are linking from shady / gaming/adult websites?

or dost the fact that the links are nofollow solve this issue completely ?

If they are linking with no follow tags to your site they will not harm you. No worries!

So let me ask it a bit differently:

If Google sees that most of your traffic (or at least a significant volume) is originated from adult websites, (while your website is legit , non adult)
would you not be worried? 
(assuming it's all NF links)

Hi Sagi

If you have a link from a completely unrelated website then I would politely ask them to remove it/them.

If you can't get it removed this way then add it to your disavow file.

Frankly, toxic links are damaging and they need to be dealt with.

If that was my affiliate it would quickly be an ex-affiliate. Warn them first - then take action.

I hope that helps,

Regards

Nigel

If there is a no follow tag it would not matter. Google will ignore those links anyway if no follow tag is insert. If you feel not comfortable with it you can always use Google Search Console to disavow links like Nigel explained.

Some of these affiliates are our affiliates with highest revenue.
the website is totally unrelated but still converts (because of massive traffic volumes)
