Project maintainers 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, or to ban
temporarily or permanently any contributor for other behaviors that
they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful.
## Scope
This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public
spaces when an individual is representing the project or its
community. Examples of representing a project or community include
using an official project e-mail address, posting via an official
social media account, or acting as an appointed representative at an
online or offline event. Representation of a project may be further
defined and clarified by project maintainers or by OTS partners.
## Reporting and Enforcement
Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior
may be reported by contacting either the appropriate project
maintainer(s) or by contacting one or more partners at Open Tech
Strategies, LLC. Contacted parties will review, investigate, and
handle complaints in the manner that they deem appropriate to the
circumstances. The contacted parties will maintain confidentiality
with regard to the reporter of an incident, except that a project
maintainer my involve an OTS partner in this process if the maintainer
deems it necessary. However, if a complaint involves an OTS partner,
those handling it will maintain confidentiality with regard to that
partner.
If a complaint were to involve *all* OTS partners, there would no way
to handle it at all. Therefore this Code of Conduct does not promise
confidentiality from OTS partners in that circumstance.
