<p>
STEMMechanics supports the international community open to
everyone without discrimination. We want this community to be a
safe and welcoming place for both newcomers and current members.
Everyone should feel comfortable and accepted regardless of
their personal background and affiliation our projects and
workshops.
</p>
<SMHeader text="Philosophy" />
<p>
In the STEMMechanics community, participants from all over the
world come together to create and work on STEM projects. This is
made possible by the support, hard work, and enthusiasm of
people who collaborate towards the common goal of creating great
ideas. Cooperation at such a scale requires common guidelines to
ensure a positive and inspiring atmosphere in the community.
</p>
<p>
This is why we have this Code of Conduct: it explains the type
of community we want to have. The rules below are not applied to
all interactions with a simple matching algorithm. Human
interactions happen in context and are complex. Perceived
violations are evaluated by real humans who will try to
interpret the interactions and the rules with kindness.
Accordingly, there is no need to hypothesize on how these rules
would affect normal interactions. Be reasonable, the
<a href="#coc-team">Code of Conduct team</a> surely will be as
well.
</p>
<SMHeader text="Application" />
<p>
This Code of Conduct applies to all users, contributors and
participants who engage with the STEMMechanics workshops,
projects and its community platforms.
</p>
<SMHeader text="Expectations" />
<ul>
<li>
Politeness is expected at all times. Be kind and courteous.
</li>
<li>
Always assume positive intent from others. Be aware that
differences in culture and English proficiency make written
communication more difficult than face-to-face communication
and that your interpretation of messages may not be the one
the author intended. Conversely, if someone asks you to
rephrase something you said, be ready to do so without
feeling judged.
</li>
<li>
Feedback is always welcome but keep your criticism
constructive. We encourage you to open discussions,
proposals, issues, and bug reports. Use the community
platforms to discuss improvements, not to vent out
frustration. Similarly, when other users offer you feedback
please accept it gracefully.
</li>
</ul>
<SMHeader text="Restricted conduct" />
<p>
Participating in restricted conduct will lead to a warning from
community moderators and/or the Code of Conduct team and may
lead to exclusion from the community in the form of a ban from
one or all platforms.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
STEMMechanics is committed to providing a friendly and safe
environment for everyone, regardless of level of experience,
gender identity and expression, sexual orientation,
disability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity,
language proficiency, age, political orientation,
nationality, religion, or other similar characteristics. We
do not tolerate harassment or discrimination of participants
in any form.
</li>
<li>
In particular, we strive to be welcoming to all and to
ensure that anyone can take a more active role in the
community and a project. Targeted harassment of minorities
or individuals is unacceptable.
</li>
<li>Aggressive or offensive behavior is not acceptable.</li>
<li>
You will be excluded from participating in the community if
you insult, demean, harass, intentionally make others
uncomfortable by any means, or participate in any other
hateful conduct, either publicly or privately.
</li>
<li>
Likewise, any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting, or other
attention-stealing behavior is not welcome and will result
in exclusion from the community.
</li>
<li>
Any form of retaliation against a participant who contacts
the Code of Conduct team is completely unacceptable,
regardless of the outcome of the complaint. Any such
behavior will result in exclusion from the community.
</li>
<li>
For certainty, any conduct which could reasonably be
considered inappropriate in a professional setting is not
acceptable.
</li>
</ul>
<SMHeader text="Reporting a breach" />
<p>
If you witness or are involved in an interaction with another
community member that you think may violate this Code of
Conduct, please contact STEMMechanics

STEMMechanics recognizes that it can be difficult to come
forward in cases of a violation of the Code of Conduct. To make
it easier to report violations, we provide a single point of
contact via email at:
<a href="conduct@stemmechanics.com.au"
>conduct@stemmechanics.com.au</a
>. If you are more comfortable reaching out to a single person,
you are also welcome to contact one or more members of the team
using their personal emails listed below, or via direct
messaging on community platforms where they are present.
