Code of Conduct

Our pledge

Clarvia exists to reduce administrative burden during bereavement through trustworthy, source-backed public-interest infrastructure.

We are committed to maintaining a respectful, inclusive, and professional community for contributors, reviewers, maintainers, and users.

We pledge to make participation in this project a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of:

  • age,
  • body size,
  • disability,
  • ethnicity,
  • sex characteristics,
  • gender identity or expression,
  • level of experience,
  • education,
  • socio-economic status,
  • nationality,
  • personal appearance,
  • race,
  • religion,
  • or sexual identity and orientation.

We expect all participants to contribute in ways that support:

  • accuracy,
  • collaboration,
  • transparency,
  • accessibility,
  • and respect for people navigating bereavement and administrative systems.

Our standards

Examples of behaviour that contributes to a positive environment

  • Using welcoming, respectful, and inclusive language
  • Engaging constructively with differing viewpoints and experiences
  • Accepting feedback professionally and in good faith
  • Prioritizing accuracy, provenance, and clarity
  • Acknowledging uncertainty where appropriate
  • Supporting contributors with varying levels of experience
  • Keeping discussions focused on improving the project and its public usefulness

Examples of unacceptable behaviour

  • Harassment, intimidation, or discriminatory behaviour
  • Trolling, insulting, or derogatory comments
  • Personal attacks or sustained hostility
  • Publishing another person's private or sensitive information without permission
  • Deliberately introducing misleading, fabricated, or unsourced workflow information
  • Misrepresenting legal or administrative guidance as verified when it is not
  • Bad-faith contributions, spam, or disruptive behaviour
  • Sexualized language or unwelcome sexual attention
  • Threats, stalking, or sustained intimidation
  • Other conduct that could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional or collaborative setting

Scope

This Code of Conduct applies across all Clarvia project spaces, including:

  • repositories,
  • issues,
  • pull requests,
  • discussions,
  • documentation,
  • review workflows,
  • community channels,
  • events,
  • and other project-related communications.

It also applies when an individual is representing Clarvia in public or professional contexts.

Enforcement responsibilities

Project maintainers are responsible for:

  • clarifying and enforcing this Code of Conduct,
  • responding to reports,
  • and taking appropriate and proportionate corrective action when necessary.

Maintainers may remove, edit, or reject contributions, comments, commits, code, issues, or other content that violates this Code of Conduct.

Reporting and enforcement

Instances of abusive, harassing, unsafe, or otherwise unacceptable behaviour should be reported through a private project reporting channel.

Until a dedicated reporting address is published, reports may be made privately to a Clarvia organization owner or maintainer.

Do not open public issues for sensitive conduct reports.

Reports will be reviewed confidentially and handled in good faith.

The project team will:

  • investigate reported incidents,
  • assess appropriate responses,
  • and maintain confidentiality where reasonably possible.

Responses may include:

  • warnings,
  • temporary restrictions,
  • removal of content,
  • suspension of participation,
  • or permanent bans from project spaces.
