# Code of Conduct ## Our Pledge We as members, contributors, and maintainers of the Spatial ETL Framework project pledge to make participation in our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual identity and orientation. We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming, diverse, inclusive, and healthy community. --- ## Our Standards Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment include: - Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people - Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences - Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback - Accepting responsibility, apologizing to those affected by our mistakes, and learning from the experience - Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the overall community - Helping newcomers get started — especially those adding their first data mapper, writing their first datasource YAML, or porting the framework to a new city Examples of unacceptable behavior include: - The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or advances of any kind - Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks - Public or private harassment - Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email address, without their explicit permission - Submitting code, data, or configuration intended to be malicious, deceptive, or to compromise the integrity of the pipeline or database - Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting --- ## Scope This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces — including the repository, issues, pull requests, discussions, and any other official communication channels — and also applies when an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces. It also applies to contributions to the project itself: code, YAML configurations, data mappers, spatial-join strategies, documentation, and any dataset introduced into the pipeline. --- ## Contributor Responsibilities In addition to the behavioral standards above, contributors to Spatial ETL Framework are expected to: - **Respect data licenses.** Only add datasources whose licenses permit redistribution and downstream use. OSM data is under the ODbL; other datasources may have their own terms — cite them in the datasource YAML or mapper. - **Do not commit credentials or secrets.** The project uses default development credentials (`postgres/admin123`) only for local Docker development. Never commit real API keys, tokens, or production credentials. - **Be honest about data provenance.** Document the source URL, license, and update cadence in the datasource config. - **Engage constructively in code review.** Focus feedback on the code, configuration, or approach — not the person. --- ## Enforcement Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be reported to the project maintainers at **krutarthparwal@gmail.com**. All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly. All maintainers are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the reporter of any incident. ### Enforcement Guidelines Maintainers will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct: **1.
