+Bans
+----
+
+The goal of a ban is to protect people in the community from having to interact
+with people who are consistently not respecting the
+:ref:`LLVM Community Code of Conduct` in LLVM project spaces. Contributions of
+any variety (pull requests, issue reports, forum posts, etc.) require
+interacting with the community. Therefore, we do not accept any form of direct
+contribution from a banned individual.
+
+Indirect contributions are permissible only by someone taking full ownership of
+such a contribution and they are responsible for all related interactions with
+the community regarding that contribution.
+
+When in doubt how to act in a specific instance, please reach out to
+conduct@llvm.org for advice.
