+# Farama Foundation Code of Conduct
+
+The Farama Foundation is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for
+everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual
+orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, age, race, or
+religion. We do not tolerate harassment of participants in any form.
+
+This code of conduct applies to all Farama Foundation repositories (including Gist
+comments) both online and off. Anyone who violates this code of
+conduct may be sanctioned or expelled from these spaces at the
+discretion of the moderators.
+
+We may add additional rules over time, which will be made clearly
+available to participants. Participants are responsible for knowing
+and abiding by these rules.
+
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Members of the Farama Foundation community are **open**, **inclusive**, and **respectful**.
+Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our community include:
+
+* **Being open**. Members of the community are open to collaboration, whether it's on issues, PRs, problems, or otherwise
+* **Focusing on what is best for the community**. We're respectful of the processes set forth in the community, and we work within them to
+  improve the community.
+* **Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences.**  We're receptive to constructive comments and criticism,
+  as the experiences and skill sets of other members contribute to the whole of our efforts.
+* **Showing empathy.** We're attentive in our communications, and we're tactful when approaching differing views.
+* **Being respectful.** We're respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, experiences, and efforts.
+* **Gracefully accepting constructive criticism.** When we disagree, we are courteous in raising our issues.
+* **Using welcoming and inclusive language.** We're accepting of all who wish to take part in our activities, fostering
+  an environment where anyone can participate and everyone can make a difference.
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
+
+* Harassment of any participants in any form.
+* The use of sexual language or imagery, and sexual attention or advances of any kind.
+* Insults, put downs, or jokes that are based upon stereotypes, that are exclusionary, or that hold others up for ridicule.
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email address, without explicit permission.
+* Incitement of violence or harassment towards any individual, including encouraging a person to commit suicide or to engage in self-harm.
+* Sustained disruption of online community discussions, in-person presentations, or other in-person events.
+* Creating additional online accounts in order to harass another person or circumvent a ban
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting including people of many different backgrounds.
+
+Members asked to stop any inappropriate behavior are expected to comply immediately.
+
+
+## Consequences
+
+If a participant engages in behavior that violates this code of conduct, the Farama Foundation team may take any action they deem
+appropriate, including warning the offender or expulsion from the community.
+
+Thank you for helping make this a welcoming, friendly community for everyone.
