+# Contributor Code of Conduct
+
+As community members and contributors of this project, we agree to create a community that is free from harassment.
+We promise to interact with each other in a way that fosters a welcoming community where everyone feels comfortable getting involved. 
+Our main aim is to connect people from different backgrounds to collaborate, develop skills and have fun while doing so. 
+Any behaviour that impedes on this goal is unacceptable. 
+
+## Our Vision
+
+As we aim to create an inclusive community, examples of behaviour we promote are: 
+
+1. Being respectful of differing viewpoints and perspectives
+2. Giving criticism that is constructive and beneficial 
+3. Exhibiting empathy to other community members
+4. Focusing on what is best for our community as a whole
+
+Here are examples of behaviour that will not be tolerated: 
+
+1. Personal attacks on individuals or groups
+2. Advances of a sexual nature toward any community member and/or members
+3. Spreading of private information such as email addresses without consent
+4. Any other behaviour that would be deemed unacceptable in a professional setting
+
+## Applications
+
+Our community code of conduct applies to all spaces within the community. It also applies when representing the community via other channels such as social media
+or at events (either in-person or online).
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Any instance of behaviour that is deemed harmful to the community will be dealt with by a community leader. Please contact one of our community leaders in the
+event that you or someone you know is facing harassment.

+
+## What Happens When Harassment is Reported?
+
+After intiating contact about harassment through one of the above channels, a community leader will investigate the issue promptly. Depending on the severity
+of the harassment, different approaches will be taken. 
+
+If there is a **single instance** of inappropriate behaviour, a warning will be given to the individual by a community leader and an apology will be requested on
+behalf of the affected person(s). 
+
+If there happen to be **multiple violations**, a temporary ban will be enacted against the individual responsible. In the unforunate event that an individual continues
+harassing behaviour after a temporary ban, this will lead to a **permanent ban** from our community.
