Code of conduct

Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct

Our Pledge

In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

Our Standards

Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment include:

• Using welcoming and inclusive language
• Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
• Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
• Focusing on what is best for the community
• Showing empathy towards other community members

Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:

• The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or advances
• Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
• Public or private harassment
• Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic address, without explicit permission
• Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting

Our Responsibilities

Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.

Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful.

Scope

This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be further defined and clarified by project maintainers.

Communication

Policy overview
Members can send messages to each other using the forums Personal Messaging. We encourage open communication between our members but we don't allow our members to use these options to send spam, offers to buy or sell, threats, profanity, or hate speech. We also don't allow members to offer, reference, or request email addresses, phone numbers or other contact information, physical addresses, web addresses, or links within the messaging systems messages may be monitored between users for fraud, abuse, spam, and other violations of policies.

Make sure you follow these guidelines. If you don't, you may be subject to a range of actions, including your messages being blocked, privileges removed and suspension of your account.

Please remember that we don't have control over communication unless it takes place through contribs.org.

Spam
We don't allow our members to send each other spam. "Spam" is an email (or part of an email) that is both unsolicited and commercial in nature.
Unsolicited means the person who received the message didn't request it. Commercial means the message discusses buying, selling, or trading of goods or services.

Some examples of spam include: Unsolicited email offers of sale of goods Email messages sent to a member on a mailing list without that member's prior permission Invitations to join a mailing list that aren't related to contribs.org

Offers to buy or sell
Email sent using forum messages (or features such as the Contact member link) to send unsolicited commercial offers

If you have received spam from another forums member, please forward it to the forum admin. If you received a warning for violating our spam policy and you believe it was sent in error, or you were suspended for violating our spam policy and would like to learn more, please contact us.

Threats
We don't tolerate threats of physical harm using any method including by email or on our public message boards (such as our discussion boards, groups, and other community areas).
If you receive a threat, report it. You should also consider contacting your the other member's Internet service provider (ISP) if the threat was made through email communication.

Profanity and hate speech
Members aren't allowed to use profanity or hate speech in their communications with other members through contribs.org

Enforcement

Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be reported by contacting the project team at president@koozali.org. All complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident. Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.

Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other members of the project's leadership.
