Our events are dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of sex, gender, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion (or lack thereof). We do not tolerate harassment of attendees in any form. Sexual language and imagery are not appropriate for these events, including talks, workshops, parties, Twitter, and other online media. Event participants violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the event at the discretion of the organisers.

The Full Quick Version

Harassment includes offensive verbal comments related to sex, gender, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention.

Participants asked to stop any harassing behaviour are expected to comply immediately.

Sponsors are also subject to the anti-harassment policy. In particular, sponsors should not use sexualised images, activities, or other material.

If a participant engages in harassing behaviour, the event organisers may take any action they deem appropriate, including warning the offender or expulsion from the event with no refund.

If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact a member of the event organisers immediately.

Organisers will be happy to help participants contact local security or law enforcement, provide escorts, or otherwise assist those experiencing harassment to feel safe for the duration of the event. We value your attendance.

We expect participants to follow these rules at event venues and event-related social events. This Code of Conduct was derived from codeofconduct.org and is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License.

Anti-Harassment Policy

Our Python Meetup Community is committed to providing a safe and harassment-free experience for all participants, regardless of sex, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, nationality, age, religion, or any other characteristic.

This Anti-harassment policy applies to all community spaces, including physical meetups, online platforms, social media, and any other communication channels associated with the community.

Harassment

Harassment includes offensive comments or actions related to sex, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, nationality, age, religion, or any other characteristic. Harassment also includes unwelcome sexual advances, intimidation, stalking, photography or recording without consent, sustained disruption of talks or other events, and any other inappropriate behaviour that creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive environment.

Respectful Communication

Engage in respectful and constructive communication. Treat others with kindness, empathy, and respect. Disagreements are bound to happen, but it is important to do so respectfully, focusing on the issues rather than attacking individuals.

Inclusive Language

Use inclusive language and avoid any offensive or exclusionary comments, jokes, or imagery that could create discomfort or harm to others. Be mindful of the impact of your words and actions on others, even if they were unintentional.

Personal Boundaries

Respect personal boundaries of others. Do not touch others without their consent. Be mindful of personal space and do not engage in any behavior that makes others uncomfortable.

Reporting and Enforcement

If you witness or experience harassment or any violation of this Code of Conduct, please report it to the organizers immediately. Reports can be made in person, via email, or through any other official communication channels. All reports will be kept confidential and will be reviewed and addressed promptly. Appropriate actions will be taken, which may include warnings, expulsion from the event or community, or banning from future events.

Consequences

Violations of this Code of Conduct may result in disciplinary actions deemed appropriate by the organizers, including but not limited to warnings, temporary or permanent bans from the community, and involvement of law enforcement if necessary.
