Code of Conduct

Our community is what makes us who we are

Community standards

We want to provide each and every one of you with a consistently great experience, so we created this Community Code of Conduct. We want to ensure mutual support will always be guaranteed and that we create an environment in which we can grow together.

Please remember to be kind, and follow the Camunda Code of Conduct when interacting with other Camunda community members. Keep in mind that communication styles vary, and no two individuals communicate in the same way. Please do your best to remain helpful, and try to avoid making sweeping demands whenever possible.

It is expected that project maintainers will follow the Code of Conduct when interacting with community members, and the same holds true for community members interacting with project maintainers.

Scope

We expect all members of the Camunda community, including administrators, users, facilitators, and vendors to abide by this Code of Conduct at all times.

The Camunda Code of Conduct applies to all our Camunda projects and products, including but not limited to Camunda Platform 7, Camunda Cloud, the Camunda Community Hub, and bpmn-io. It also applies to all Camunda events. This includes official Camunda events, such as CamundaCon, Camunda Process Automation Forums, Camunda meetups, trainings, workshops, and unofficial Camunda events.

The Camunda Community Code of Conduct also applies to any Camunda online space. This includes Slack workspaces, discussion forums, websites, code repositories, mailing lists, and more. The Camunda Community Code of Conduct also applies to private correspondence between community members through our online spaces.

We trust all of our community members will help to create a safe and welcoming environment for everyone.

Creating a harassment-free space

We are dedicated to providing a harassment-free community space for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, ethnicity, age, physical appearance, religion, or similar personal characteristics.

We do not tolerate harassment of other Camunda users in any form, whether publicly or privately. Harassment includes, but is not limited to: harmful or prejudicial verbal or written comments, inappropriate use of nudity, sexual images, and/or sexually explicit language in public spaces, threats of physical or non-physical harm, deliberate intimidation, stalking or following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention.

In addition, any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting, or other attention-stealing behavior is not welcome, and will not be tolerated.

Community guidelines

We have put together a few guidelines that we ask community members to adhere to. By being explicit about them, we want to ensure the Camunda community continues to be a supportive place for everyone:

  • Mutual respect: No matter if you are an administrator, user, facilitator, or vendor, please beware of inappropriate behavior and wording at any time.

  • Camunda stands for open communication, respectful interaction, and transparency. Please keep that in mind as we strive for an inspiring environment where every single member and participant feels welcome.

  • Effective communication: “To effectively communicate, we must realize that we are all different in the way we perceive the world and use this understanding as a guide to our communication with others” (Tony Robbins). By listening to understand rather than to respond, we create a highly productive environment where all community members, no matter what language or background, are able to communicate effectively.

  • Mindfulness: Please be mindful of the space, as well as people and their actions around you. We always co-create and every single action can have a major impact on the event or even the community. To create this safe, supportive, and highly productive space, we need to work together and hold each other accountable.

  • Request and provide support: Our online as well as offline platforms are meant to support exchange and mutual help. Please be open with your requests and questions as there is a good chance not only you, but the whole community can benefit from starting the conversation. In return, please be open to share your knowledge and experience to be an active member of the community.

  • No tolerance for harassment: We do not tolerate harassment of other Camunda community members in any form, whether publicly or privately. See our community guidelines above for further specification of types of harassment.

  • Reporting violations: Harassment and other code of conduct violations reduce the value of our community for everyone. We want you to be happy when engaging with the broader Camunda community. If someone makes you or anyone else feel unsafe or unwelcome, report it as soon as possible. To help us make the community a better place, please include as much detail as possible in your report so that we have more or applicable context.

    • If an issue is or was able to be documented, it is helpful to include screenshots with identifying information removed if you do not feel comfortable sharing it.

Violations to the Camunda Community Code of Conduct

Harassment and unacceptable behavior from any community member, including employees, sponsors, customers, partners, event organizers, or others with decision-making authority, will not be tolerated.

Anyone asked to stop unacceptable behavior is expected to comply immediately. If a community member engages in unacceptable behavior, the Camunda administrators may take any action they deem appropriate, up to and including a temporary or permanent ban from the community without warning and without refund in the case of a paid event or service.

Communication styles

When communicating with others on the Camunda Cloud Community forums or in Slack, it’s important to remember that not everyone communicates in the same way. Some individuals may be neurodivergent, and thus may not communicate in a neurotypical manner. Please endeavor to understand neurological differences when communicating with other community members so this space welcomes everyone.

Others may learn or understand information differently from you. While someone may understand a diagram or model at first glance, others may benefit from having a paragraph or two of information to read that explains what the diagram, model, or example does. Remember that what may seem obvious to you may not be to someone else.

We all come from different backgrounds and experiences. As such, keep in mind that not everyone has had access to the same learning tools, education, and experience that you may have. What may seem like an easy or quick solution for you may be difficult to understand, or challenging to implement for someone else.

Above all, please be compassionate and empathetic when communicating with others.
