| # Code of Conduct | 
 |  | 
 | ## Our Pledge | 
 |  | 
 | In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as | 
 | contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and | 
 | our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body | 
 | size, disability, ethnicity, 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 towards 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 to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or permanently any | 
 | contributor for other behaviors that they deem 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 using an official project e-mail | 
 | address, posting via an official social media account, 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. | 
 |  | 
 | This Code of Conduct also applies outside the project spaces when the Project | 
 | Steward has a reasonable belief that an individual's behavior may have a | 
 | negative impact on the project or its community. | 
 |  | 
 | ## Conflict Resolution | 
 |  | 
 | We do not believe that all conflict is bad; healthy debate and disagreement | 
 | often yield positive results. However, it is never okay to be disrespectful or | 
 | to engage in behavior that violates the project’s code of conduct. | 
 |  | 
 | If you see someone violating the code of conduct, you are encouraged to address | 
 | the behavior directly with those involved. Many issues can be resolved quickly | 
 | and easily, and this gives people more control over the outcome of their | 
 | dispute. If you are unable to resolve the matter for any reason, or if the | 
 | behavior is threatening or harassing, report it. We are dedicated to providing | 
 | an environment where participants feel welcome and safe. | 
 |  | 
 | Reports should be directed to code-of-conduct@bazel.build, the Project | 
 | Steward(s) for Bazel. It is the Project Steward’s duty to receive and address | 
 | reported violations of the code of conduct. They will then work with a committee | 
 | consisting of representatives from the Open Source Programs Office and the | 
 | Google Open Source Strategy team. If for any reason you are uncomfortable | 
 | reaching out to the Project Steward, please email opensource@google.com. | 
 |  | 
 | We will investigate every complaint, but you may not receive a direct response. | 
 | We will use our discretion in determining when and how to follow up on reported | 
 | incidents, which may range from not taking action to permanent expulsion from | 
 | the project and project-sponsored spaces. We will notify the accused of the | 
 | report and provide them an opportunity to discuss it before any action is taken. | 
 | The identity of the reporter will be omitted from the details of the report | 
 | supplied to the accused. In potentially harmful situations, such as ongoing | 
 | harassment or threats to anyone's safety, we may take action without notice. |
