We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our community 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, socioeconomic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming, diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our community include:

- Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
- Public or private harassment
- Publishing others’ private information, such as a physical or email address, without their explicit permission
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 will follow these guidelines in determining the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
- Correction

- Temporary Ban
- Permanent Ban
(See full guidelines: https://www.contributor-covenant.org/version/2/1/code_of_conduct/)
This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces (online and offline), and also applies when an individual is representing the community in public spaces.
Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be reported by contacting the maintainers at committee@brisbanesocialchess.org.au. All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
This Code of Conduct is adapted from the Contributor Covenant, version 2.1.
