Code of Conduct and Anti-Harassment Policy

We want a great convention experience for everyone, regardless of gender, sexuality, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion. For this reason, we will not tolerate harassment of convention participants. Con participants found to be engaging in harassment may be sanctioned or expelled from the con without a refund.

What is harassment?

Harassment includes:

  • offensive verbal comments about gender, sexuality, disability, physical appearance, body size, race or religion
  • intimidation, stalking or following
  • uninvited physical contact
  • uninvited sexual attention

  • What should I do if I am being harassed?

    You may find harassment stops if you clearly say ‘no’ or ‘please leave me alone’ or simply walk away. We would appreciate it if a volunteer was still informed, to help us identify any repeat offenders. If you continue to be harassed or notice someone else being harassed, please contact a volunteer immediately. Con volunteers will help participants contact venue security, provide escorts, or otherwise assist those experiencing harassment. The con volunteer will take whatever steps they can to assist you in feeling safe and will put you in contact with or bring you to an appropriate staff member.
