Code of Conduct

All participants, including attendees, speakers, sponsors, and volunteers, are expected to behave professionally at all times. This includes treating all participants with respect and consideration, valuing a diversity of views and opinions, and avoiding any form of harassment or discriminatory behavior.

Unacceptable behaviors include intimidating, harassing, abusive, discriminatory, derogatory, or demeaning conduct by any attendees of the conference and related events. All sponsors are also subject to the anti-harassment policy.

If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact a member of the conference staff immediately. All reports will be handled with discretion and confidentiality.

Unacceptable behavior will not be tolerated whether by other attendees, organizers, venue staff, sponsors, or other patrons of the conference venues. Anyone asked to stop unacceptable behavior is expected to comply immediately. If a participant engages in unacceptable behavior, the conference organizers may take any action they deem appropriate, including expulsion from the conference without warning or refund.

If you feel you have been falsely or unfairly accused of violating this Code of Conduct, you should notify the conference organizers with a concise description of your grievance. Your grievance will be taken seriously and investigated thoroughly.
