PyColorado is a community conference. It serves as a place to learn, grow, network and collaborate in the developer community.
We value the participation of each member of the Python community and want all attendees to have an enjoyable and fulfilling experience. All attendees are expected to show respect and courtesy to other attendees throughout the conference and at all conference events, whether officially part of PyColorado or not.
To make clear what is expected, all staff, attendees, speakers, exhibitors, organizers, and volunteers at any PyColorado event are required to conform to the following Code of Conduct. Organizers will enforce this code throughout the event.
PyColorado is dedicated to providing a positive conference experience for everyone, regardless of age, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, ethnicity, nationality, race, or religion (or lack thereof), education or socio-economic status.

Participants asked to stop any inappropriate behavior are expected to comply immediately.
If a participant engages in behavior that violates this code of conduct, the conference organizers may take any action they deem appropriate. This will typically begin with a warning. If the behavior continues, the participant will be removed from the conference with no refund.
Thank you for helping make this a welcoming, friendly event for all.
