TechEmpower projects follow the Contributor Covenant v2.1.
We commit to making participation in our projects a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
We pledge to act in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming, diverse, inclusive, and healthy community — especially for people from groups underrepresented in tech, who are at the heart of our mission.
Examples of behaviour that contributes to a positive environment:
- Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward others.
- Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences.
- Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback.
- Accepting responsibility, apologising to those affected by mistakes, and learning from the experience.
- Focusing on what is best for the broader community, not individual gain.
Examples of unacceptable behaviour:
- Sexualised language, imagery, or unwelcome sexual attention.
- Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, personal or political attacks.
- Public or private harassment.
- Publishing others' private information (physical or email address) without explicit permission.
- Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting.
Report violations to conduct@techempower.org. All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
Maintainers are responsible for clarifying and enforcing standards of acceptable behaviour and will take appropriate corrective action in response to behaviour they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful.
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.
This Code of Conduct is adapted from the Contributor Covenant, version 2.1.
