Code of Conduct

Everyone attending Wagtail Space 2025 must agree and adhere to our Code of Conduct, which applies to any event (conference, workshop, video streams, Slack, social media, etc.) that is associated with Wagtail. Everyone means attendees, speakers, sponsors, Wagtail Space organizers, volunteers, sketch noters, videographers, photographers, virtual venue staff, etc.

This code of conduct will be enforced strictly; everyone is expected to cooperate so we can have a safe and inclusive event.

The Quick Version

• Wagtail Space is dedicated to providing a harassment-free conference experience for everyone, regardless of gender, sex, identity, expression, orientation, age, ability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, immigration status, family status, religion (or lack thereof), education, social class, economic class, or technology choices.
• We do not tolerate harassment of participants in any form.
• Sexual language and imagery are not appropriate for any virtual Wagtail Space venue, including talks, workshops, parties, Slack, Bluesky, LinkedIn, Mastodon, and other online media.
• When organizers receive a report, they will review what happened and document the resolution. Depending on the severity of the offense, anyone violating these rules will receive either a warning, expulsion from the event at the discretion of the Wagtail Space organizers, ban from future events, or legal action (with the consent of the victim). If you receive a warning to stop harassing behavior, you must comply immediately.

The Less Quick Version

Harassment includes offensive verbal comments related to gender, sex, identity, expression, orientation, age, ability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, immigration status, family status, religion (or lack thereof), education, social class, economic class, technology choices, sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention.

Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.

Sponsors are also subject to the anti-harassment policy. In particular, sponsors should not use sexualized images, activities, or other material.

If a participant engages in harassing behavior, the Wagtail Space organizers may take any action they deem appropriate, including warning the offender, expulsion, or banning from future Wagtail Space events.

Wagtail Space organizers will cooperate with and assist attendees if they decide to explore legal options, or otherwise assist those experiencing harassment to feel safe for the duration of the conference. We value your attendance.

If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact a Wagtail Space organizer immediately. Organizers can be identified by their roles in Zoom Events. You can also find a list of organizers on our About page.

We expect participants to follow these rules at conference venues and Wagtail Space-related social events.
