This code of conduct outlines expectations for participation in Definity-managed communities, as well as steps for reporting unacceptable behavior. People violating this code of conduct may be banned from the community.
We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our community welcoming and harassment-free for everyone, regardless of age, disability, gender identity, race, religion, sexual identity and orientation, or numerous other diversifying features. We pledge to act, interact, and provide in ways that contribute.
Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our community include:
- Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
- Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
- Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
- Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes, and learning from the experience
- Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the overall community
Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
- The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or advances of any kind
- Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
- Public or private harassment
- Disruptive behavior, such as harassment, unnecessary hostility, and starting unneeded arguments
- Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email address, without their explicit permission
- Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting
Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful.
Community leaders 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, and will communicate reasons for moderation decisions when appropriate.
This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces. Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed representative at an online or offline event.
This Code of Conduct also applies to actions taken outside of these spaces, and which have a negative impact on community health.
Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at support@definityteam.com. All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly. Your report should include the username of the user, a screenshot or direct link to what you are complaining about and why you believe this is in violation of our Code of Conduct, and, if possible, what section of it.
All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the reporter of any incident.
