**By using the software and services we provide, you agree to our [Terms of Service](https://photoprism.app/terms), including our [Privacy Policy](https://photoprism.app/privacy) and the following Code of Conduct. It explains the "dos and don’ts" when interacting with other community members.**
*Last Updated: June 4, 2022*
## Preamble
The Internet is huge. As a result, you will inevitably run into people who have poor social skills, a bad day, or drank too much coffee. If issues arising from disrespectful, abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior cannot be resolved in any other way, we will invoke and enforce these rules as necessary to protect everyone's right to spend their time in a meaningful and enjoyable way.
*Last Updated: June 5, 2022*
## Rules
Because we want our Code of Conduct to be easy to understand and implement, we have only three basic rules:
Because we want our Code of Conduct to be easy to understand and implement, we have only three basic rules, numbered in order of importance:
(1) Be respectful, be responsible, be kind.
(2) Don't panic.
(2) Don’t feed the trolls.
(3) Don’t feed the trolls.
(3) Don’t panic.
## Examples
The following non-exhaustive list provides specific guidelines and examples:
Not everyone has experience with open source communities and knows what is acceptable. The following guidelines and examples are intended to provide a quick overview in such cases and help avoid the most common pitfalls:
(a) Do not feel entitled to free software, support, or advice, especially if you are not a contributor, [sponsor](https://photoprism.app/membership), or paying customer. Don't ask contributors to report to you and [meet deadlines](https://docs.photoprism.app/developer-guide/code-quality/#go-slow-before-you-go-fast) as if they work for you or owe you something.
(b) [Read the docs](https://docs.photoprism.app) and [determine the cause of your problem](https://docs.photoprism.app/getting-started/troubleshooting/) before opening invalid bug reports, starting a public "shitstorm" or insulting other community members in our chat rooms. Aside from being annoying for everyone, it also keeps our team from working on features and improvements that users like you are waiting for.
(b) Honor **Rule #3**, [read the docs](https://docs.photoprism.app) and [determine the cause of your problem](https://docs.photoprism.app/getting-started/troubleshooting/) before opening invalid bug reports, starting a public "shitstorm", or insulting other community members in our chat rooms. Aside from being annoying for everyone, it also keeps our team from working on features and improvements that users like you are waiting for.
(c) If you are having a bad day and want to offend someone, please go somewhere else.
(c) Comments and messages that violate **Rule #1** are generally unacceptable, whether public or private. If you are having a bad day and want to offend someone, please go somewhere else. To avoid embarrassing situations, we also recommend that you wait until the worst is over when you've had too much coffee.
## Reporting
We encourage all community members to resolve problems on their own whenever possible. Instances of disrespectful, abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior [may be reported](https://photoprism.app/contact) to us.
We encourage all community members to resolve problems on their own whenever possible. Serious and persistent violations [may be reported](https://photoprism.app/contact) to us.
## Enforcement
Violations may be punished with a [snarky comment](https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=snarky) and finally a **\*plonk\***[^1], meaning you will be ignored according to **Rule #3**.
In the event of violations such as disrespectful, abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior, these rules will be enforced as necessary to protect everyone's well-being and to ensure that our discussion forums, chat rooms, and other infrastructure can be used as intended.
[^1]: Plonk stands for the metaphorical sound of a user hitting the bottom of the kill file. It was first used in [Usenet forums](https://en.everybodywiki.com/Plonk_(Usenet)), a worldwide distributed discussion system and precursor to the Web.
Initial warnings may be issued in the form of a [snarky comment](https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=snarky). In serious cases, we will provide a link to this Code of Conduct and make sure offenders don't have to read between the lines.
Getting a simple **\*plonk\***[^1] in response finally signals that we have lost hope and you're being ignored according to **Rule #2**. This old tradition from Usenet days is as time-saving as it is clear. It is not meant in a disrespectful way.
