# Zom.bi Code of Conduct
## 1. Purpose
A primary goal of Zom.bi 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, physical
appearance and socioeconomic status.
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 Zom.bi 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:
* Try to 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.
* 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, antisemitic, 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, physical appearance 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).
* Sustained disruption of community events, including talks and presentations.
## 5. Weapons Policy
No weapons will be allowed at Zom.bi 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.
The only exception to this policy are fireworks for community events on New
Year's Eve. Community members however are expected to refrain from lighting or
launching fireworks until midnight local time. This exception must be provided
with any invitation to said community event.
## 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.

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 any administrator 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.
## 10. Contact info
The responsible contact is still being decided on. In the mean time feel free to
contact any member of the admin team in case of questions.
