Celtic Throwdown (CT) has established this Code of Conduct to provide guidelines to attendees and to ensure that all attendees understand what behaviour is expected, and what behaviour will not be tolerated at a CT event. CT expects all attendees to abide by this Code of Conduct at all events, affiliated groups & online. This includes related social events at off-site locations, and in related online communities and social media.
CT is dedicated to providing a harassment-free and inclusive event experience for everyone regardless of gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disabilities, neurodiversity, physical appearance, body size, ethnicity, nationality, race, age, religion, or other protected category. Participants asked to stop any harassing behaviour are expected to comply immediately or be subject to removal and/or ban from our events.
CONSEQUENCES OF UNACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOUR
Unacceptable behaviour will not be tolerated. Anyone asked to stop unacceptable behaviour is expected to comply immediately. If an attendee engages in unacceptable behaviour, CT may take any action it deems appropriate, including warning or expelling the offender from the event with no refund. For more egregious behaviour, CT may, in its reasonable discretion, temporarily ban or permanently expel an attendee from the event and make recommendation to similar events & groups to follow suit.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU WITNESS OR ARE SUBJECTED TO UNACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOUR
If you are subjected to unacceptable behaviour, notice that someone else is being subjected to unacceptable behaviour, or have any other concerns, please notify CT event staff as soon as possible. CT event staff will be available to assist those experiencing unacceptable behaviour to feel safe for the duration of the event. All reports will remain completely confidential.
