# Citizen Code of Conduct

## 1. Purpose

A primary goal of @ivuorinen's repositories 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 @ivuorinen's repositories 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 @ivuorinen's repositories 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:
<ismo@ivuorinen.net>

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 @ivuorinen with a concise description of your
grievance. Your grievance will be handled in accordance with our existing
governing policies.

## 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.
