Scope
Where this applies.
This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces — issues, pull requests, code review, support channels, social media accounts associated with PulseSignal, and any in-person or virtual events organised by PulseSignal — and also applies when an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
Reporting a violation.
Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behaviour may be reported by emailing conduct@pulsesignal.co. If your report involves a maintainer, email security@pulsesignal.co instead.
All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly. All maintainers are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the reporter of any incident.
