Summit Code of Conduct
To ensure a positive experience, all Summit attendees must adhere to our Code of
Conduct. Attendees are expected to treat all participants, speakers, sponsors, and
staff with respect and consideration, refraining from any discriminatory, harassing, or
offensive behavior or speech. It's important to take responsibility for one's actions
and their impact on others, while also respecting the venue and property, including all
shared spaces and resources.
Conducting oneself in a professional manner at all times is crucial. This includes
following the instructions of Summit staff and volunteers, as well as adhering to any
health and safety guidelines provided by the organizers. Harassment, intimidation, or
discrimination in any form will not be tolerated. This encompasses verbal comments,
unwanted physical contact, and unwelcome attention.
Respect for the privacy of other attendees is essential. Personal information should
be handled with care and discretion. Engagement in discussions and activities should
be constructive and respectful, with a willingness to share insights and experiences
while remaining open to others' perspectives. Compliance with all applicable local,
state, and federal laws and regulations, as well as following all rules and guidelines
provided by the Summit venue, is mandatory.
Violations of this Code of Conduct may result in actions ranging from a warning to
expulsion from the Summit without a refund, depending on the severity of the
offense. Serious incidents may be reported to local law enforcement if necessary.
Thank you for your cooperation and for contributing to a positive and productive
Summit experience. If you experience or witness a violation of these codes of conduct
and can’t locate Summit staff, please call or text our number (817) 745-7969.
