# Code of Conduct

## Our Pledge

We as contributors and maintainers pledge to make participation in gograph and its community a respectful, harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

## Our Standards

**Behavior that contributes to a positive environment includes:**

- Using welcoming and inclusive language
- Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
- Accepting constructive criticism gracefully
- Focusing on what is best for the project and community
- Showing empathy toward other contributors

**Behavior that is not acceptable includes:**

- Harassment, insults, or derogatory comments in any form
- Personal or political attacks
- Publishing private information about others without explicit permission
- Trolling or deliberately disruptive behavior
- Any conduct that would reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting

## Scope

This Code of Conduct applies within all project spaces — GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, and any other communication channel associated with gograph. It also applies when an individual is representing the project in public spaces.

## Responsibilities

Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying acceptable behavior and are expected to take fair and appropriate corrective action in response to any behavior they determine to be harmful, threatening, or unwelcoming.

Maintainers have the right to remove, edit, or reject comments, commits, code, issues, and other contributions that do not align with this Code of Conduct, and to temporarily or permanently ban contributors whose behavior is harmful.

## Enforcement

Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be reported by opening a GitHub issue or contacting the maintainers directly via the contact information in the repository. All reports will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly. Maintainers are obligated to maintain confidentiality regarding the reporter.

Maintainers who do not enforce this Code of Conduct in good faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other members of the project leadership.

## Attribution

This Code of Conduct is adapted from the [Contributor Covenant](https://www.contributor-covenant.org), version 2.1.
