## Our Pledge
4-
5-
The Qiskit Community is dedicated to our values of treating every individual
6-
with respect and dignity. In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming
7-
environment, all participants, including attendees, speakers, sponsors,
8-
volunteers, online contributors, and IBM employees are expected to show
9-
courtesy for each other and our community by creating a harassment-free
10-
experience for everyone, regardless of age, personal appearance, disability,
11-
ethnicity, gender identity and expression, body size, level of experience,
12-
nationality, race, religion, caste, or sexual identity and orientation.
13-
Expected behavior applies to both online and offline engagement within the
14-
Qiskit Community.

## Scope
17-

The purpose of this Code of Conduct is to define and enforce the values and
19-
conduct of contributors and participants in the Qiskit open source community.
20-
The Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
21-
when an individual is engaging with the Qiskit open source community. Examples
22-
include attending a Qiskit event, contributing to online projects, commentary
23-
on Slack, or representing a project or community, including using an official
24-
project e-mail address, posting via an official social media account, or
25-
acting as an appointed representative at an online or offline event.

Representation of a project may be further defined and clarified by project
27-
maintainers.

## Responsibilities & Enforcement
63-
64-
The entire Qiskit community is responsible for upholding the terms of the Code
65-
of Conduct in Qiskit Community events and spaces and reporting violations if
66-
they see them. The internal Qiskit team at IBM is ultimately responsible for
67-
clarifying the standards of acceptable behavior and enforcement, and is expected
68-
to take appropriate and fair corrective action in response to any instances of
69-
unacceptable behavior.
70-
71-
If a participant or contributor engages in negative or harmful behavior, IBM
72-
will take any action they deem appropriate, including but not limited to
73-
issuing warnings, expulsion from an event with no refund, deleting comments,
74-
permanent banning from future events or online community, or calling local law
75-
enforcement. IBM has the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
76-
comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are
77-
not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to temporarily or permanently ban any
78-
contributor or participant for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
79-
threatening, offensive, or harmful.

1. If you feel comfortable, let the person know that what they did is not
84-
appropriate and ask them to stop and/or edit or delete their message(s) or
85-
comment(s).
86-
2. If the person does not immediately stop the behavior or correct the issue,
87-
or if you're uncomfortable speaking up, flag a moderator and, if appropriate,
88-
fill out the anonymous
89-

90-
3. The Qiskit Community will open an investigation upon receiving your form
91-
entry. When reporting, please include any relevant details, links,
92-
screenshots, context, or other information that may be used to better
93-
understand and resolve the situation.
94-
4. If the code of conduct violation occurs at an event and requires immediate
95-
response or contains a concern about an individual attending an upcoming
96-
event, contact the event's on-call Code of Conduct point of contact listed
97-
in the event specific code of conduct document. If you don't feel comfortable
98-
speaking to the point of contact in person, fill out a Code of Conduct
99-
violation form entry and include the details of the event so that the Code of
100-
Conduct enforcement board can contact the event's on-call Code of Conduct
101-
point of contact.
102-
5. If an IBM employee witnesses a Code of Conduct violation at any time, such as
103-
at events, in a Slack channel, or open source forums, it is their
104-
responsibility to file a Code of Conduct violation report.
