StartupNash Code of Conduct

===========================

Welcome to StartupNash!


StartupNash is a supportive place for entrepreneurs, investors, and community members to share their experiences in their respective businesses. Our goals as a group are to support each other as a community of mostly Nashville-based startup-related experiences and/or folks who are interested in learning more about our community.

The current admins are:

StartupNash should be a fun, pleasant, and harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion. We as a group do not tolerate harassment of participants in any form. Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.

Confidentiality:


Please keep what's said in StartupNash in the space. Don't repeat or quote things said here without the affirmative consent of the speaker(s). Keep in mind that it's possible that people will reference general conversation topics from this Slack. Also keep in mind that anyone can join via the signup form. As much as we try to make StartupNash a safe space, please use your own discretion when chatting in Slack.

Please be mindful that things you say here may at some point become public. While we expect members to honor the confidentiality of this space, we cannot guarantee that they will do so--nor can we guarantee that every member's login credentials and logged-in devices are secure. Please exercise caution and refrain from sharing sensitive information that could harm you or others if it became public.

Logs and Records:


Please be mindful that things you say here may at some point become public. We cannot prevent people from screen capping or otherwise logging this slack. We also can't guarantee that every member's login credentials and logged-in devices are secure. Files uploaded here can be downloaded by anyone with a login. Please exercise caution and refrain from sharing sensitive information that could harm you or others if it became public.

*Please note that filling out Typeforms and Airtable bases with your information are public. Please do not fill out questions on forms within this Slack if you don't want that information to become public.

Message Retention:


Because this is a free slack account, we have restricted scrollback, but Slack--the company--retains complete logs of all channels and direct messages back to the creation of StartupNash. Slack is a U.S. company and therefore subject to subpoenas from U.S. courts. Our logs may be subject to subpoena and could become public as part of legal proceedings.
