Code of Conduct

PLEASE READ THIS POLICY CAREFULLY

UNLEASH AMERICA CODE OF CONDUCT

UNLEASH America is committed to fostering a positive, inclusive experience for all participants, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age, or religion. We prohibit harassment in any form and uphold the highest standards of professionalism at the event. Participants include attendees, speakers, sponsors, exhibitors, volunteers, and staff.

Inappropriate language or imagery, including sexually explicit content, is not allowed at the conference or in presentations. Harassment may consist of offensive verbal comments, displaying sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, unauthorized photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual advances.

Participants who engage in harassment or are asked to cease any harassing behaviour must comply immediately.

Event organizers reserve the right to take necessary actions to maintain a welcoming environment, which may include warning the offender or expelling them from the conference without refund. Organizers may also address any disruptions or hostile environments caused by participants.

These rules apply to all event venues and event-related social activities.

If you experience harassment, witness someone else being harassed, or have other concerns, report it immediately to a member of the UNLEASH America Management Team, a volunteer, or the conference contacts listed below. Management Team members and volunteers can be identified by their name badges.

Our team is ready to assist with contacting venue security, local law enforcement, local support services, providing escorts, or helping you feel safe throughout the event. We value your attendance and expect participants to adhere to these rules at all conference venues and conference-related social events. If you find this policy restrictive, please refrain from attending or speaking at the conference.

PURPOSE

We believe in creating an open and inclusive community for everyone. To ensure a friendly, safe, and welcoming environment, we have established this code of conduct outlining our expectations for participant behaviour and the consequences for unacceptable behaviour.

We invite all sponsors, speakers, attendees, media, exhibitors, and other participants to help us achieve a safe and positive conference experience for everyone.

All determinations of appropriate or inappropriate behaviour are at the sole discretion of the organizers of UNLEASH America, and the decisions made by on-site representatives are final.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR

Be considerate, respectful, kind and collaborative.

Avoid demeaning, discriminatory, or harassing behaviour, materials, and speech.

Be aware of your surroundings and fellow participants. Alert conference organizers if you notice a dangerous situation or someone in distress.

Foster a culture of reciprocity by treating others with respect, fairness, and kindness, and expecting the same in return. Actively contribute to creating a positive and inclusive environment for all participants.

If a participant engages in unacceptable behaviour, the conference organizers may take any action they deem appropriate, up to and including expulsion from the conference without warning or refund.

REPORTING UNACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOR
