Participants — including, but not limited to, attendees, speakers, volunteers, NYCT board members, and service providers—are expected to abide by this Code of Conduct. This Code of Conduct applies to all aspects of NYCT Virtual and In-person Programs, including, but not limited to, webinars, virtual workshops, events, meetings, and other activities.

Unacceptable behavior is defined as:
- Harassment, intimidation, or discrimination in any form.
- Verbal abuse, including but not limited to
- comments related to gender, sexual orientation, age, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, or national origin;
- inappropriate use of nudity and/or sexual images;
- threatening or stalking any participant.
- Disruption in any form. All participants must comply with the instructions of moderators and NYCT board members.
NYCT reserves the right to take any action deemed necessary and appropriate, including immediate removal from virtual programs without warning or refund, in response to any incident of unacceptable behavior, and NYCT reserves the right to prohibit attendance at any future NYCT event.
If you experience or are aware of any incident of unacceptable behavior, please inform the President at president@nyctranslators.org so that NYCT can take appropriate action.
