Code of Conduct

NOMAD is a community of NMR facility staff, researchers and developers. We want everyone to feel welcome and able to take part.

Our standard​

Please:

  • be respectful and considerate
  • welcome newcomers and people with different levels of experience
  • give and accept constructive feedback graciously
  • credit other people's work
  • focus on what is best for the community

Not acceptable:

  • harassment, discrimination, insults or personal attacks
  • sexualised language or unwelcome attention
  • publishing other people's private information
  • trolling or sustained disruption
  • other conduct that would be inappropriate in a professional setting

Scope​

This applies in all project spaces: the GitHub repositories, the Discord server, project email, committee meetings, and public settings where someone is representing the project.

Reporting and enforcement​

Report concerns to the Project Lead by direct message on Discord or by email to nomad@st-andrews.ac.uk. Reports are handled promptly and in confidence.

If your concern involves the Project Lead, or you would rather not go to them, contact any member of the steering committee, who will handle it instead.

Responses depend on the situation and may include a private conversation, a warning, a request to change behaviour, or temporary or permanent removal from project spaces. Nobody will face retaliation for reporting a concern in good faith.
