At XdHacks Mini we have a simple and reasonable expectation from all our participants and organisers to be professional, inclusive, and positive.

Harassment Policy

XdHacks Mini believes that all our high school hackers have the right to work in a safe and uplifting environment. This means we expect all our organisers and participants to be welcoming no matter one's identity.

Harassment includes but is not limited to offensive verbal or written comments related to gender, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, social class, economic status, sexual images, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention. If you are doing something that is causing discomfort, that counts as harassment and is a reason in itself to stop doing it.

If you are asked to stop a behaviour, you are expected to do so immediately. Sponsors, speakers, and anyone else at the event are also subject to this anti-harassment policy. In particular, attendees should not display sexualised images, activities, or other material both during the session. Hosts should not use sexualised clothing/uniforms/costumes or create a sexualised environment.

If a participant engages in harassing behaviour, XdHacks Mini will take action it deems appropriate, including warning the offender or expulsion from the event with no eligibility for reimbursement or refund of any type. You will also be banned from partaking in any future XdHacks Mini event.

If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please get in touch with your XdHacks Mini host immediately. We are always looking out for our participants and will willingly contact local authorities if the situation requires such an action. We want to be able to maintain a safe environment for all our participants. Our hosts have also been briefed on what to do in a situation like this.

We expect participants to follow these rules for all interactions in relation to the event.
