# Citizen Code of Conduct
|
|
|
|
## 1. Purpose
|
|
|
|
A primary goal of danjones000/object-spy is to be inclusive to the largest number of
|
|
contributors, with the most varied and diverse backgrounds possible. As such, we
|
|
are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all,
|
|
regardless of gender, sexual orientation, ability, ethnicity, socioeconomic
|
|
status, and religion (or lack thereof).
|
|
|
|
This code of conduct outlines our expectations for all those who participate in
|
|
our community, as well as the consequences for unacceptable behavior.
|
|
|
|
We invite all those who participate in danjones000/object-spy to help us create safe and
|
|
positive experiences for everyone.
|
|
|
|
## 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.
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
The following behaviors are expected and requested of all community members:
|
|
|
|
* 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.
|
|
* Remember that community event venues may be shared with members of the
|
|
public; please be respectful to all patrons of these locations.
|
|
|
|
## 4. Unacceptable Behavior
|
|
|
|
The following behaviors are considered harassment and are unacceptable within
|
|
our community:
|
|
|
|
* Violence, threats of violence or violent language directed against another
|
|
person.
|
|
* Sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, ableist or otherwise discriminatory
|
|
jokes and language.
|
|
* Posting or displaying sexually explicit or violent material.
|
|
* Posting or threatening to post other people's personally identifying
|
|
information ("doxing").
|
|
* Personal insults, particularly those related to gender, sexual orientation,
|
|
race, religion, or disability.
|
|
* Inappropriate photography or recording.
|
|
* Inappropriate physical contact. You should have someone's consent before
|
|
touching them.
|
|
* Unwelcome sexual attention. This includes, sexualized comments or jokes;
|
|
inappropriate touching, groping, and unwelcomed sexual advances.
|
|
* Deliberate intimidation, stalking or following (online or in person).
|
|
* Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior.
|
|
* Sustained disruption of community events, including talks and presentations.
|
|
|
|
## 5. Weapons Policy
|
|
|
|
No weapons will be allowed at danjones000/object-spy events, community spaces, or in other
|
|
spaces covered by the scope of this Code of Conduct. Weapons include but are not
|
|
limited to guns, explosives (including fireworks), and large knives such as
|
|
those used for hunting or display, as well as any other item used for the
|
|
purpose of causing injury or harm to others. Anyone seen in possession of one of
|
|
these items will be asked to leave immediately, and will only be allowed to
|
|
return without the weapon. Community members are further expected to comply with
|
|
all state and local laws on this matter.
|
|
|
|
## 6. 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).
|
|
|
|
## 7. Reporting Guidelines
|
|
|
|
If you are subject to or witness unacceptable behavior, or have any other
|
|
concerns, please notify a community organizer as soon as possible.
|
|
danjones@goodevilgenius.org
|
|
|
|
<!-- Provide a URL or instructions for reporting code of conduct issues. -->
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
## 8. Addressing Grievances
|
|
|
|
If you feel you have been falsely or unfairly accused of violating this Code of
|
|
Conduct, you should notify the danjones000/object-spy project lead(s) <!-- Provide the name of your code of conduct committee. --> with
|
|
a concise description of your grievance. Your grievance will be handled in
|
|
accordance with our existing governing policies.
|
|
|
|
<!-- Provide a URL or details for governing polcies. -->
|
|
|
|
<!--
|
|
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.
|
|
-->
|
|
|
|
## 9. Scope
|
|
|
|
We expect all community participants (contributors, paid or otherwise; sponsors;
|
|
and other guests) to abide by this Code of Conduct in all community
|
|
venues--online and in-person--as well as in all one-on-one communications
|
|
pertaining to community business.
|
|
|
|
This code of conduct and its related procedures also applies to unacceptable
|
|
behavior occurring outside the scope of community activities when such behavior
|
|
has the potential to adversely affect the safety and well-being of community
|
|
members.
