Code of conduct

We are committed to making Protolang 7 productive and enjoyable for everyone, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, nationality or religion. We will not tolerate harassment of participants in any form. Please follow these guidelines:

  • Behave professionally. Harassment and sexist, racist, or exclusionary comments or jokes are not appropriate. Harassment includes sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, sexual attention or innuendo, deliberate intimidation, stalking, and photography or recording of an individual without consent. It also includes offensive comments related to gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race or religion.
  • All communication should be appropriate for a professional audience including people of many different backgrounds. Sexualized language and imagery is not appropriate.
  • Be kind to others. Do not insult or put down other attendees.

Attendees violating these rules may be asked to leave the event. If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact, in confidence, a member of conference staff.
