        <p>In addition to the informal fun-governing Hacks 'R' Us <a href="/#policy">Policy</a>, we also all agree to
            follow and respect our Code of Conduct, a derivative of <a href="https://community-covenant.net/">Community
                Covenant</a>.</p>
        <div class="code-of-conduct">
            <h1>Community Covenant</h1>

            <h2>Our Goal</h2>

            <p>This community is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone. We do not tolerate
                harassment of participants in any form.</p>

            <h2>Applicability and Scope</h2>

            <p>This code of conduct applies to all of this community's spaces, including public channels, private
                channels and direct messages, both online and off. Anyone who violates this code of conduct may be
                sanctioned or expelled from these spaces at the discretion of the administrators.</p>

            <p>Where the community's Policy and this Code of Conduct could be seen to be in conflict, this Code of
                Conduct takes precedence.</p>

            <h2>Toward a Welcoming and Safe Environment</h2>

            <p>We hope to create an environment in which diverse individuals can collaborate and interact in a positive
                and affirming way. Examples of behaviour that contributes to creating this sort of environment include:
            </p>

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

            <h2>Anti-Harassment Statement</h2>

            <p>This community will not tolerate harassment of any kind. Examples of harassment include:</p>

            <ul>
                <li>Offensive comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation,
                    disability, mental illness, neuro(a)typicality, physical appearance, pregnancy status, veteran
                    status, political affiliation, marital status, body size, age, race, national origin, ethnic origin,
                    nationality, immigration status, language, religion or lack thereof, or other identity marker. This
                    includes anti-Indigenous/Nativeness and anti-Blackness.</li>
                <li>Unwelcome comments regarding a person's lifestyle choices and practices, including those related to
                    food, health, parenting, relationships, drugs, and employment.</li>
                <li>Deliberate misgendering, using inappropriate pronouns, or use of "dead" or rejected names.</li>
                <li>Gratuitous or off-topic sexual images or behaviour in spaces where they're not appropriate.</li>
                <li>Physical contact and simulated physical contact (eg, textual descriptions like "hug" or "backrub")
                    without consent or after a request to stop.</li>
                <li>Threats of violence.</li>
                <li>Incitement of violence towards any individual or group, including encouraging a person to commit
                    suicide or to engage in self-harm.</li>
                <li>Deliberate intimidation.</li>
                <li>Stalking or following - online or in the physical world.</li>
                <li>Harassing photography or recording, including logging online activity for harassment purposes.</li>
                <li>Sustained disruption of discussion.</li>
                <li>Unwelcome sexual attention.</li>
                <li>Patterns of inappropriate social contact, such as requesting/assuming inappropriate levels of
                    intimacy with others.</li>
                <li>Continued one-on-one communication after requests to cease.</li>
                <li>Deliberate "outing" of any aspect of a person's identity without their consent except as necessary
                    to protect vulnerable people from intentional abuse.</li>
                <li>Publication of non-harassing private communication.</li>
                <li>Jokes that resemble the above, such as "hipster racism", still count as harassment even if meant
                    satirically or ironically.</li>
            </ul>

            <p>If you have questions or concerns about these issues please feel free to message a member of the conduct
                group, ask in the #policy channel, or ask for an opportunity to explore the issue with a moderator and
                volunteers.</p>

            <h2>Reporting</h2>

            <p>If you are being harassed by a member of our community, notice that someone else is being harassed, or
                have any other concerns, please contact any of the conduct group who are in the @mods Discord
                group via Direct Message. If the person who is harassing you is on the conduct group, they will not be
                involved in handling or resolving the incident.</p>

            <p>The conduct group will respond to any complaint as promptly as possible we can. If you do not get a
                timely response (for example, if no members of the @mods group are currently online) then please put
                your personal safety and well-being first, and consider logging out. Messages left for offline members
                of the team on Discord will be responded to asynchronously as soon as possible.
            </p>

            <p>This code of conduct applies to our community's spaces, but if you are being harassed by a member of our
                community outside our spaces, we still want to know about it. We will take all good-faith reports of
                harassment by our members, especially the conduct group, seriously. This includes harassment outside
                our spaces and harassment that took place at any point in time. The conduct group reserves the right to
                exclude people from the community based on their past behaviour, including behaviour outside of our
                spaces
                and behaviour towards people who are not in this community.</p>

            <p>In order to protect volunteers from abuse and burnout, we reserve the right to reject any report we
                believe to have been made in bad faith. Reports intended to silence legitimate criticism may be
                disregarded without response.</p>

            <h2>Enforcement Process</h2>

            <p>Every code of conduct violation report will be treated with seriousness and care. If a member's immediate
                safety and security is threatened, an individual conduct group member may take any action that they deem
                appropriate, up to and including temporarily banning the offender from the community. In less urgent
                situations, at least two conduct group members will discuss the offense and mutually arrive at a
                suitable response, which will be shared with the offender privately. Whatever the resolution that they
                decide upon, the decision of the conduct group members involved in a violation case will be considered
                final.</p>

            <p>We will respect confidentiality requests for the purpose of protecting victims of abuse. At our
                discretion, we may publicly name a person about whom we've received harassment complaints, or privately
                warn third parties about them, if we believe that doing so will increase the safety of our members or
                the general public. We will not name harassment victims without their affirmative consent.</p>

            <h2>Consequences</h2>

            <p>Participants asked to stop any harassing behaviour are expected to comply immediately. If a participant
                engages in harassing behaviour, the conduct group may take any action they deem appropriate, up to and
                including expulsion from the community and identification of the participant as a harasser to other
                members. At the discretion of the conduct group team, or by request, one or more of the parties involved
                may request to discuss the violation and how to avoid similar situations in the future.</p>
