GUADEC is a welcoming and friendly event, during which GNOME
contributors often become friends and make resolves to come to the
next one.

GUADEC is dedicated to providing a safe and friendly conference
experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and
expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body
size, race, age or religion. We do not tolerate harassment of
conference participants in any form. Harassment includes offensive
verbal comments related to any of the above qualities, 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. Sexual language and imagery is not appropriate for any
conference venue, including talks. Participants asked to stop any
harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.

Exhibitors in the sponsor exhibit space are also subject to the
anti-harassment policy. In particular, exhibitors should not use
sexualized images, activities, or other material.

If a participant engages in harassing behavior, the conference
organizers may issue a warning for an unintentional or minor offense
or expel the participant from the conference with no refund for repeat
or serious offense. If you are being harassed, notice that someone
else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please immediately
contact Alexandre Franke, Marina Zhurakhinskaya, anyone on the GUADEC
organizing team, or anyone on the GNOME board of directors. These
people will be introduced at the opening for the conference and
conference volunteers will be able to help you identify one of them.

Conference organizers and the GNOME Foundation directors will be able
to address the harassing behavior with the offender, provide escorts,
contact local law enforcement, or otherwise assist those experiencing
harassment to feel safe for the duration of the conference. We value
your attendance.

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