Code of Conduct
The open exchange of ideas and the freedom of thought and expression are central to the aims and goals of ACM and ACM-W. These require an environment that recognizes the inherent worth of every person and group, that fosters dignity, understanding, and mutual respect, and that embraces diversity. For these reasons, the Celebrations project is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience at our events.
Harassment is unwelcome or hostile behavior, including speech that intimidates, creates discomfort, or interferes with a person’s participation or opportunity for participation, in a conference or event. Harassment in any form, including but not limited to harassment based on alienage or citizenship, age, color, creed, disability, marital status, military status, national origin, pregnancy, childbirth- and pregnancy-related medical conditions, race, religion, sex/gender, veteran status, or any other status protected by laws in which the conference is being held, will not be tolerated. Harassment includes the use of abusive or degrading language, intimidation, stalking, harassing photography or recording, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention. A response that the participant was “just joking,” or “teasing,” or being “playful,” will not accepted.
Event participants violating these standards may be sanctioned or excluded from further participation at the discretion of the organizers.
