# Code of Conduct (Contributor Covenant)

For answers to common questions about this code of conduct, see
https://www.contributor-covenant.org/faq

## Our Pledge

To foster an open and welcoming environment, we as maintainers and
contributors pledge to make participation in our project and our
community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of
age, body size, disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender
identity and expression, level of experience, education,
socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race,
religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

## Our Standards

Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
include:

* Using welcoming and inclusive language
* Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
* Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
* Focusing on what is best for the community
* Showing empathy toward other community members

Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:

* The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
advances
* Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
* Public or private harassment
* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
address, without explicit permission
* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
professional setting

## Our Responsibilities

Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.

Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
that are not aligned with this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
permanently any contributor for other behavior that is inappropriate,
threatening, offensive, or harmful.

## Scope

This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
representing a project or community include making an official online post
about the project or acting as an appointed representative at an online or
offline event. Representation of a project may be further defined and
clarified by project maintainers.

## Enforcement

Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior
may be reported by contacting the initial creator of CATCH and lead
project maintainer at hayden@mit.edu. All complaints will be reviewed
and investigated and will result in a response that is deemed
necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project maintainers will
maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident. Further
details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.

Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
faith may face repercussions as determined by other members of the project's
leadership.
