Harassment includes, but is not limited to, offensive verbal comments related to gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, sexual images in public and online spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, and unwelcome sexual attention.

We reserve the right to enforce, or not enforce, these policies in our sole discretion, and these policies don't create a duty or contractual obligation for us to act in any particular manner. Anti-Harassment Policy

In addition to our general community guidelines, we also have a specific anti-harassment policy. All TechTO Events, workplaces, staff, presenters, and participants are held to the following Anti-Harassment Policy. In addition to governing its own Events by this policy, TechTO will only lend its brand and officially partner with groups which offer a similar anti-harassment policy to their attendees. TechTO is dedicated to providing a harassment free experience for everyone. We welcome everyone regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age, religion, faith, national origin, source of income, and language preference. We do not tolerate harassment in any form. Sexual language and imagery is not appropriate for any TechTO Event or network activity, including talks. Anyone in violation of these policies may expelled from TechTO Events or network activities; this will be at the discretion of TechTO leadership and/or event organizers. Harassment includes but is not limited to offensive verbal or written comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age, religion, faith, national origin, source of income, and language preference; sexual images in public spaces; deliberate intimidation; stalking; following; harassing photography or recording; sustained disruption of talks or other Events; inappropriate physical contact; unwelcome sexual attention; unwarranted exclusion; and patronizing language or action. If a participant engages in harassing behavior, TechTO leadership and/or event organizers may take any action they deem appropriate, including warning the offender and expulsion from TechTO Events and network activities. If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact a member of the event staff immediately. If you cannot reach the event organizer and/or it is an emergency, please call 911. TechTO leadership and/or event staff will be happy to help participants contact hotel/venue security or local law enforcement, provide escorts, or assist those experiencing harmful behaviour.
