- Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes
- Focusing on what is best for the overall community

Examples of unacceptable behavior include:

- Sexualized language or imagery, sexual attention, or advances
- Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
- Public or private harassment
- Publishing another person's private information without explicit permission

## Enforcement responsibilities

Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying and enforcing these standards. They may remove, edit, or reject comments, commits, code, issues, and other contributions that are not aligned with this Code of Conduct and will communicate moderation decisions when appropriate.

## Scope

This Code of Conduct applies within all project spaces and whenever an individual officially represents the project in public spaces.

## Enforcement

Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be reported privately to the project maintainers through GitHub. Reports will be reviewed promptly and fairly. Maintainers will respect the privacy and security of the reporter.

## Enforcement guidelines

Maintainers will consider the context and impact of a violation when determining a response, which may include a private correction, warning, temporary restriction, or permanent ban from project interaction.
