to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for | ||
all, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, ability, | ||
ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and religion (or lack | ||
thereof). | ||

## 2. Open [Source/Culture/Tech] Citizenship | ||
|
||
A supplemental goal of this Code of Conduct is to | ||
increase open [source/culture/tech] citizenship by encouraging | ||
participants to recognize and strengthen the relationships | ||
between our actions and their effects on our community. | ||
A supplemental goal of this Code of Conduct is to | ||
increase open [source/culture/tech] citizenship by encouraging | ||
participants to recognize and strengthen the relationships | ||
between our actions and their effects on our community. | ||
|
||
Communities mirror the societies in which they exist and positive action is essential to counteract the many forms of inequality and abuses of power that exist in society. | ||
|
||
If you see someone who is making an extra effort to | ||
ensure our community is welcoming, friendly, and encourages | ||
all participants to contribute to the fullest extent, we | ||
want to know. | ||
|
||
## 3. Expected Behavior | ||
|
||
* Participate in an authentic and active way. In doing so, you contribute to the health and longevity of this community. | ||
* Exercise consideration and respect in your speech and actions. | ||
* Attempt collaboration before conflict. | ||
* Refrain from demeaning, discriminatory, or harassing behavior and speech. | ||
* Be mindful of your surroundings and of your fellow participants. Alert community leaders if you notice a dangerous situation, someone in distress, or violations of this Code of Conduct, even if they seem inconsequential. | ||
|
||
## 4. Unacceptable Behavior | ||
|
||
Unacceptable behaviors include: intimidating, harassing, abusive, | ||
discriminatory, derogatory or demeaning speech or actions by | ||
any participant in our community online, at all related | ||
events and in one-on-one communications carried out in the | ||
context of community business. Community event venues may be | ||
shared with members of the public; please be respectful to | ||
all patrons of these locations. | ||
|
||
Harassment includes: harmful or prejudicial verbal or written | ||
comments related to gender, sexual orientation, race, | ||
religion, disability; inappropriate use of nudity and/or | ||
sexual images in public spaces (including presentation | ||
slides); deliberate intimidation, stalking or following; | ||
harassing photography or recording; sustained disruption of | ||
talks or other events; inappropriate physical contact, and | ||
unwelcome sexual attention. | ||
|
||
## 5. Consequences of Unacceptable Behavior | ||
|
||
Unacceptable behavior from any community member, including | ||
sponsors and those with decision-making authority, will not | ||
be tolerated. | ||
|
||
Anyone asked to stop unacceptable behavior is expected to | ||
comply immediately. | ||
|
||
If a community member engages in unacceptable behavior, the | ||
community organizers may take any action they deem | ||
appropriate, up to and including a temporary ban or | ||
permanent expulsion from the community without warning (and | ||
without refund in the case of a paid event). | ||
|
||
## 6. If You Witness or Are Subject to Unacceptable Behavior | ||
|
||
If you are subject to or witness unacceptable behavior, or | ||
have any other concerns, please notify a community organizer | ||
as soon as possible. [CONTACT_INFO_HERE] | ||
|
||
Additionally, community organizers are available to help | ||
community members engage with local law enforcement or to | ||
otherwise help those experiencing unacceptable behavior feel | ||
safe. In the context of in-person events, organizers will | ||
also provide escorts as desired by the person experiencing | ||
distress. | ||
|
||
## 7. Addressing Grievances | ||
|
||
If you feel you have been falsely or unfairly accused of | ||
violating this Code of Conduct, you should notify | ||
GOVERNING_BODY with a concise description of your grievance. | ||
Your grievance will be handled in accordance with our | ||
existing governing policies. [LINK_TO_POLICY] | ||
|
||
[NOTE: Every organization's governing policies should dictate | ||
how you handle warnings and expulsions of community members. | ||
It is strongly recommended that you mention those policies | ||
here or in Section 7 and that you include a mechanism | ||
for addressing grievances.] | ||
