# 📜 Code of Conduct

## 🤝 Our Pledge

We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge **to make participation in our community a harassment-free experience for everyone**, regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

We pledge to act and interact in ways that **contribute to an open, welcoming, diverse, inclusive, and healthy community**.

## ✅ Our Standards

Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our community include:

- Demonstrating **empathy and kindness** toward other people
- Being **respectful** of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
- Giving and gracefully accepting **constructive feedback**
- **Accepting responsibility** and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes, and learning from the experience
- Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the **overall community**

Examples of unacceptable behavior include:

- The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or advances of any kind
- Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
- Public or private harassment
- Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email address, without their explicit permission
- Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting

## 🛡️ Enforcement Responsibilities

**Community leaders are responsible** for clarifying and enforcing our standards of acceptable behavior and **will take appropriate and fair corrective action** in response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful.

Community leaders have **the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions** that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation decisions when appropriate.

## 🌐 Scope

This Code of Conduct applies within **all community spaces**, and also applies when an individual is **officially representing the community** in public spaces. Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed representative at an online or offline event.

## 📢 Reporting & Enforcement

Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be reported privately to the maintainers through GitHub's **private reporting**, rather than in a public issue:

1. Go to the [**Security** tab](https://github.com/Kyonew/DVinyl/security) of this repository.
2. Click **Report a vulnerability** to open a private advisory visible only to you and the maintainers.
3. **Start the title with `[Code of Conduct]`** so maintainers can immediately tell your report apart from a security vulnerability.
4. Describe the incident with as much relevant detail as you are comfortable sharing.

> ⚠️ **Warning:** This is the same private channel used for [security disclosures](./SECURITY.md), but the two are triaged differently. A report is handled under this document only when its title is prefixed with `[Code of Conduct]`, anything else is treated as a security vulnerability. Please keep a conduct complaint and a vulnerability report separate, one advisory each.

All complaints will be reviewed and investigated **promptly and fairly**. All community leaders are obligated to respect the **privacy and security of the reporter** of any incident, and will determine and communicate the appropriate response on a case-by-case basis.
