Refrain from demeaning, discriminatory or harassing behaviour.
Be mindful of your surroundings and of your fellow participants.
Alert event organizers if you witness unacceptable behaviour.

Unacceptable behaviour:

Intimidating, harassing, abusive, discriminatory, derogatory or demeaning conduct.
Harassment includes offensive oral or written remarks, gestures, display of images or other conduct that demeans, belittles, insults, derides or humiliates an individual or group, or that perpetuates or reinforces pejorative stereotypes.
