Code of Conduct
jsday is a community conference intended for networking and collaboration in the developer community. We value the participation of each member of the community and want all attendees to have an enjoyable and fulfilling experience. Accordingly, all attendees are expected to show respect and courtesy to other attendees throughout the conference and at all conference events, whether officially sponsored by jsday or not.
To make clear what is expected, all delegates/attendees, speakers, exhibitors, organizers and volunteers at any GrUSP event are required to conform to the following Code of Conduct. Organizers will enforce this code throughout the event (online and/or in-person).
The short version
No type of harassment, in any form, towards other people will be tolerated during every single event organized and sponsored by the association.
All communication should be appropriate for a professional audience including people of many different backgrounds. Sexual language and imagery are never appropriate.
Be kind to others. Do not insult or put down other attendees. Behave professionally. Remember that harassment and sexist, racist, or exclusionary jokes are never appropriate.
Attendees violating these rules may be asked to leave the conference without a refund at the sole discretion of the conference organizers.
Thank you for helping make this a welcoming, friendly event for all.

Are you witnessing a violation or are you not comfortable with something that happened?
If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact a member of conference staff.
In in-person events, you recognize the people on the team because they are wearing the yellow GrUSP logo t-shirt. You can also contact the venue staff and ask to be put in touch with the people responsible for the conference.
In online events, you can contact the organizing staff by looking for people registered as “name - GrUSP Team”, or you can contact us by sending an email to jsday@grusp.org
Conference staff will be happy to help participants contact hotel/venue security or local law enforcement, provide escorts, or otherwise assist those experiencing harassment to feel safe for the duration of the conference. We value your attendance.
