| 5 | == 🎯 Mission & Spirit == | ||
| 6 | |||
| 7 | Équnité™ is a community-powered, open-knowledge platform dedicated to safer, fairer and more transparent volleyball — in France and beyond. | ||
| 8 | This Code of Conduct (CoC) protects that mission by setting clear standards of courtesy, inclusion and integrity. | ||
| 9 | |||
| 10 | * Empower **players, fans, coaches and clubs** to share knowledge without fear. | ||
| 11 | * Preserve **anonymity** where required (e.g. club reviews) while valuing accountability. | ||
| 12 | * Foster **constructive collaboration** across languages, genders, skill levels and backgrounds. | ||
| 13 | |||
| 14 | _The CoC complements the Équnité General License, Privacy Policy, Terms of Use and Moderation Guidelines._ | ||
| 15 | |||
| 16 | == 🌍 Scope == | ||
| 17 | |||
| 18 | This CoC applies to **all** official Équnité spaces: | ||
| 19 | |||
| 20 | * Forum, Tracker, Wiki, Connect, group chats, voice calls, live streams and meet-ups | ||
| 21 | * Direct messages initiated via Équnité platforms | ||
| 22 | * Any event, social-media account or repository under the Équnité / PLANIPIX banner | ||
| 23 | |||
| 24 | == 🔑 Core Principles == | ||
| 25 | |||
| 26 | (% class="table-bordered" %) | ||
| 27 | |= **Principle** |= **In Practice** | ||
| 28 | | 🙌 Respect | Critique ideas, never people. Assume good intent; use welcoming language. | ||
| 29 | | 🌈 Inclusivity | No discrimination by nationality, gender, disability, orientation, age, league or contract status. | ||
| 30 | | 🛡️ Player Safety | Protect anonymity in club reviews; never reveal identities without consent. | ||
| 31 | | 📢 Transparency | Cite sources, show evidence, mark personal opinions clearly. | ||
| 32 | | 🎓 Mentorship | Share expertise, encourage newcomers, translate key points for non-native speakers. | ||
| 33 | | 🔒 Privacy & Consent | Publish only data you own or have permission to share; follow GDPR. | ||
| 34 | | 🛠️ Constructive Action | Focus on solutions; provide actionable feedback and context. | ||
| 35 | |||
| 36 | == ✅ Expected Behaviour == | ||
| 37 | |||
| 38 | * Use inclusive, non-gendered language unless a preference is known. | ||
| 39 | * Provide alternative text for images and respect accessibility needs. | ||
| 40 | * Keep commercial references minimal and fully disclosed. | ||
| 41 | * Flag sensitive or potentially triggering content with a **Content Warning**. | ||
| 42 | * Follow project processes (issue templates, roadmap voting, review guidelines). | ||
| 43 | |||
| 44 | == 🚫 Unacceptable Behaviour == | ||
| 45 | |||
| 46 | * Harassment, slurs, hate speech or personal threats | ||
| 47 | * Publishing private or identifying information without consent (“doxxing”) | ||
| 48 | * Sexualised or violent imagery directed at individuals | ||
| 49 | * Fraud, match-fixing or encouraging illegal behaviour | ||
| 50 | * Persistent unwanted contact (stalking, repeated unsolicited DMs) | ||
| 51 | * Spam, pyramid schemes or undisclosed advertising | ||
| 52 | * Retaliation against anyone who reports misconduct | ||
| 53 | |||
| 54 | == 📝 Reporting Problems == | ||
| 55 | |||
| 56 | # **Document** – take screenshots or copy the URL/time-stamp. | ||
| 57 | # **Report** – click **Report** on the post **or** e-mail [[conduct@equnite.com>>mailto:conduct@equnite.com]]. | ||
| 58 | # **Confidentiality** – only the CoC Response Team (CRT) sees reports. | ||
| 59 | # **Acknowledgement** – first reply within 48 h. | ||
| 60 | |||
| 61 | At live events, find a staff badge or text the emergency number on event signage. | ||
| 62 | |||
