## Goals of This Document

Tilt is committed to providing a friendly, safe, and welcoming environment for
all of our users, contributors, followers, and Fans, regardless of: gender
identity or expression; sexual orientation; disability; neurodivergence;
physical appearance; body size; ethnicity; nationality; race; age; religion;
level of technical experience; education; socio-economic status; or similar
personal characteristics.

The first goal of the Code of Conduct is to specify a baseline standard of
behavior so that people with different social values and communication styles
can talk effectively, productively, and respectfully.

The second goal is to provide a mechanism for resolving conflicts in the
community when they arise.

The third goal of the Code of Conduct is to make our community welcoming to
people from different backgrounds. Diversity is critical to the project; for
Tilt to be successful, it needs contributors and users from all backgrounds.

We believe that healthy debate and disagreement are essential to a healthy
project and community. However, it is never okay to be disrespectful. We value
diverse opinions, but we value respectful behavior more.

## Code of Conduct

### Our Pledge

In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender
identity or expression, sexual orientation, disability, neurodivergence,
physical appearance, body size, ethnicity, nationality, race, age, religion,
level of technical experience, education, socio-economic status, or similar
personal characteristics.

### Our Standards

Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
include:

  * Using welcoming and inclusive language
  * Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
  * Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
  * Focusing on what is best for the community
  * Showing empathy towards other community members

Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:

  * The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or advances
  * Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
  * Public or private harassment
  * Unwelcome comments regarding a personâs lifestyle choices and practices, including those related to food, health, parenting, drugs, and employment
  * Publishing othersâ private information, such as a physical or electronic address, without explicit permission (also known as âdoxingâ)
  * Deliberate [misgendering](https://www.healthline.com/health/transgender/misgendering#why-it-happens). This includes [deadnaming](https://www.healthline.com/health/transgender/deadnaming) or persistently using a pronoun that does not correctly reflect a personâs gender. You must address people by the name they give you when not addressing them by their username or handle
  * Physical contact and simulated physical contact (e.g., textual descriptions like `*hug*` or `*backrub*`) without consent or after a request to stop
  * Threats of violence, both physical and psychological
  * Incitement of violence towards any individual, including encouraging a person to commit suicide or to engage in self-harm
  * Harassing photography or recording, including logging online activity for harassment purposes
  * Continued one-on-one communication after requests to cease
  * Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting

Our open source community prioritizes marginalized peopleâs safety over
privileged peopleâs comfort. We will not act on complaints regarding:

  * âReverseâ -isms, including âreverse racism,â âreverse sexism,â and âcisphobiaâ
  * Reasonable communication of boundaries, such as âleave me alone,â âgo away,â or âIâm not discussing this with youâ
  * Refusal to explain or debate social justice concepts
  * Communicating in a âtoneâ you donât find congenial
  * Criticizing racist, sexist, cissexist, or otherwise oppressive behavior or assumptions

### Our Responsibilities

Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.

Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
threatening, offensive, or harmful.

### Scope

This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
representing a project or community include: using an official project e-mail
address; posting via an official social media account; or acting as an
appointed representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a
project may be further defined and clarified by project maintainers.

This Code of Conduct also applies outside the project spaces when the project
maintainers have a reasonable belief that an individualâs behavior may have
a negative impact on the project or its community.

### Conflict Resolution

We do not believe that all conflict is bad; healthy debate and disagreement
often yield positive results. However, it is never okay to be disrespectful or
to engage in behavior that violates the projectâs Code of Conduct.

If you see someone violating the Code of Conduct, you are encouraged to
address the behavior directly with those involved. Many issues can be resolved
quickly and easily, and this gives people more control over the outcome of
their dispute. If you are unable to resolve the matter for any reason, or if
the behavior is threatening or harassing, report it. We are dedicated to
providing an environment where participants feel welcome and safe.

Reports should be directed to **conduct@tilt.dev**.

We will investigate every complaint, but you may not receive a direct
response. We will use our discretion in determining when and how to follow up
on reported incidents, which may range from not taking action to permanent
expulsion from the project and project-sponsored spaces. We will notify the
accused of the report and provide them an opportunity to discuss it before any
action is taken. The identity of the reporter will be omitted from the details
of the report supplied to the accused. In potentially harmful situations, such
as ongoing harassment or threats to anyoneâs safety, we may take action
without notice.
