Code of Conduct

All participants of Vessy.com’s online community and events are required to agree with the following code of conduct.

We value the diversity and inclusion of underrepresented and marginalized people.

Be mindful that this will likely be the most diverse group of people that you have been around and can expect to meet people from a wide range of religions, ethnicities, genders, gender identities, nationalities, sexual orientations, body sizes, physical appearance, mental abilities and physical abilities.

Use this as an opportunity to respectfully interact with a diverse group of individuals in a professional and safe environment.

We are all here to learn and grow. This community, being a professional and safe environment, is not the appropriate venue to question individuals on their underrepresented status.

How we define harassment

Offensive verbal or written comments related to gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, unwelcome photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention are also considered inappropriate behaviour.

How we respond to harassment

Anyone found to be behaving in any way that makes participants uncomfortable or impedes the intended goals of this event and/or the community will be in violation of this Code of Conduct and will be ejected from the event/community.

If you or someone else are subjected to inappropriate behaviour or have any other concerns please follow the Reporting steps below.
