Salesforce Open Source Community Code of Conduct

About the Code of Conduct

Equality is a core value at Salesforce. We believe a diverse and inclusive community fosters innovation and creativity, and are committed to building a culture where everyone feels included.

Salesforce open-source projects are committed to providing a friendly, safe, and welcoming environment for all, regardless of gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, ethnicity, nationality, race, age, religion, level of experience, education, socioeconomic status, or other similar personal characteristics.

The goal of this code of conduct is to specify a baseline standard of behavior so that people with different social values and communication styles can work together effectively, productively, and respectfully in our open source community. It also establishes a mechanism for reporting issues and resolving conflicts.

All questions and reports of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior in a Salesforce open-source project may be reported by contacting the Salesforce Open Source Conduct Committee at ossconduct@salesforce.com.

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 gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, ethnicity, nationality, race, age, religion, level of experience, education, socioeconomic status, or other similar personal characteristics.

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 toward other community members

Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:

The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or advances
Personal attacks, insulting/derogatory comments, or trolling
Public or private harassment
Publishing, or threatening to publish, 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
Advocating for or encouraging any of the above behaviors

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 with 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 email 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.

Enforcement

Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be reported by contacting the Salesforce Open Source Conduct Committee at ossconduct@salesforce.com. All complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The committee is obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident. Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.

Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other members of the project's leadership and the Salesforce Open Source Conduct Committee.
