Haskell Runway Code of Conduct

All Participants Will:

1. Treat all other participants with respect.
2. Work together to improve and strengthen communications, relations, processes, procedures, and the learning environment of Haskell Runway.
3. Be truthful in conduct behavior, and attitudes and trust others to do the same.
4. Be accountable for words, thoughts, and deeds and engage in conduct and behavior that reflects the institutional values of the organization.

We want all attendees who come to our events to have a great experience. Safety, respect, and consideration are critical. While issues may be rare, we want to be clear about the standards and expectations in place at our events, wherever they are held, because actions can impact others.

This code of conduct explains our expectations. Anyone at the event who behaves in an unacceptable way will be asked to stop doing so immediately, and we can also remove you from the event.

Comfort and Safety

• Never act in a way that puts your own or other participants health, safety, or security at risk.
• If you have a fever or other symptoms that may put others at risk of becoming ill, we encourage you not to attend. Contact the team to discuss other ways to take part.
• Follow all health, safety, or security processes, including emergency procedures and access protocols such as any age limits.
• Do not alter or obscure any safety signage, obstruct any exits, or misuse or move any equipment provided for everyone's safety and protection.
• Help us by reporting any unsafe behavior, security risks or hazards immediately.

Respectful Environment

We have a ZERO tolerance towards any verbal or physical threats, violence, abuse, or harassment at any live, on demand, or official Haskell Runway event or on our digital platforms or community sites.

For the avoidance of doubt, this includes:

• Discrimination, including but limited to race, sex, age, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, national origin, religion, disability, and marital status.
• Offensive language and gestures, whether it is verbal harassment or abuse, sexually explicit language or gestures, profanity, obscenity or racial, religious or ethnic slurs.
• The use, display or distribution of inappropriate or offensive materials, and any content that is intimidating, harassing, abusive, discriminatory, or derogatory or demeaning, including the inappropriate use of nudity or sexual images in public spaces.
• Sexual harassment, including inappropriate physical contact and unwelcome sexual attention whether verbal, physical or otherwise, in person or online.
• Stalking, or behavior that causes apprehension to others including following, photography, and recording.
• Physical harassment, or threats and acts of violence, including pushing, shoving and the use of any physical force.
• Display of any weapon or other item used to threaten or intimidate.
• Deliberately damaging the venue or other people's property.
• Assembling for the purpose of disturbing the peace or committing an offense.

Participation and Engagement

We want everyone to be able to participate and fully engage in our events in comfort. Disrupting all or part of any live or on demand event, whether physically or verbally, in a sustained or deliberate way, goes against this.

• Do not deliberately prevent others from attending or participating in any portion of this event.
• Do not heckle or catcall, or interrupt others in a sustained or disruptive way, whether verbally, with music or other noise or behavior.
• Never act in a way that endangers others or prevents them from acting safely.

Acting Sustainably

Sustainability features are an important part of delivering a great all-round experience. At live events, please:

• Consider any local guidance on sustainable travel and use of reusable drinking or food containers.
• Make use of any recycling and sustainable waste disposal provided.

Responsible Consumption

• Anyone found under the influence of any substance, whether lawful or otherwise, and acting in a way that negatively impacts others may be removed from the event.
• Follow the rules of the venue and event organizer in relation to consuming alcohol, smoking, vaping and using tobacco products. Only consume these products where and when permitted.
• If you are handling or demonstrating machinery or equipment that has a higher risk of impacting the health or safety of others, you must not consume any substance, lawfully or otherwise, that might impair your behavior or judgment or impact the correct and safe performance of that activity.

Event Attire

• Dress appropriately for a live and in cases where you will be visible to others at an on demand event.
• Avoid clothing that may offend other participants or the local culture, including images, patterns or slogans.

Respect and Consideration Online

The expectations in this Code of Conduct also apply to our digital platforms and community sites. Content, posts, and comments shared and created must not contain:

• Accusatory, negative, or destructive comments about other participants or the event.
• Knowingly false or misleading comments or claims about products or companies.

Content found in breach may be deleted or removed without warning.

Reporting Concerns

We encourage anyone who experiences or witnesses any behavior that goes against this Code of Conduct, or has any other concerns, to report it to their event team so that we can investigate promptly and take action as required.
