This policy was approved during the
|
|
[Annual_Meeting_2013](Annual_Meeting_2013 "wikilink") by member vote.
|
|
|
|
*This anti-harassment policy is based on [the example policy from the
|
|
Geek Feminism
|
|
wiki](http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/wiki/Conference_anti-harassment),
|
|
created by the Ada Initiative and other volunteers.*
|
|
|
|
HacDC is dedicated to being a harassment-free hackerspace for everyone.
|
|
We do not tolerate harassment of members or visitors in any form.
|
|
|
|
Harassment includes but is not limited to offensive verbal comments
|
|
related to gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance,
|
|
body size, race, or religion; sexual images in public spaces; deliberate
|
|
intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording;
|
|
sustained disruption of talks or other events; inappropriate physical
|
|
contact; unwelcome sexual attention; or violation of any applicable
|
|
laws. Members and visitors asked to stop any harassing behavior are
|
|
expected to comply immediately.
|
|
|
|
If a member or visitor engages in harassing behavior, the board of
|
|
directors or event organizer may take any action they deem appropriate,
|
|
including warning the offender or expulsion from the space or event with
|
|
no refund. Members violating these rules may be subject to termination
|
|
of their HacDC membership. If you are being harassed, notice that
|
|
someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please
|
|
contact a member of the board of directors or the event organizer
|
|
immediately.
|
|
|
|
Members of the board of directors and event organizers will happily help
|
|
members and visitors contact building security or local law enforcement,
|
|
provide escorts, or otherwise assist those experiencing harassment to
|
|
feel safe and prevent harassment for the duration of their visit at
|
|
HacDC. We value your attendance.
