Code of Conduct

1. Purpose

Diffy exists to help FPS talent rise. That only works when every space we share — Discord, streams, socials, email, events — is safe, fair, and welcoming.

2. Scope

This code applies to everyone representing or collaborating with Diffy in any setting (online or offline), including but not limited to employees, contractors, talent, parents/guardians, vendors, and guests.

3. Core principles

Principle	How we live it
Respect always	• Treat everyone with dignity and empathy • Use thoughtful, inclusive language • Honor different backgrounds and experiences
Impact over intent	• Own mistakes without excuses • Apologize quickly and sincerely • Listen first, defend later — if at all
Empower each other	• Amplify quieter voices and credit original work • Share knowledge so everyone grows • Welcome new ideas and perspectives
Integrity in everything	• Play fair — no cheating or shady shortcuts • Protect private data and confidential info • Represent Diffy positively on and off the clock
Zero tolerance for harassment	• No bullying, discrimination, or hateful speech • No unwanted advances or intimidation • No retaliation against anyone who speaks up

4. Prohibited conduct

Harassment, slurs, hate speech, threats, or bullying
Unwanted or non-consensual advances or sexual content
Cheating, boosting, account sharing, or doxxing
Sharing private or confidential material without permission
Retaliating against a reporter or witness

5. If something goes wrong

Pause it: say or type “Ouch” to stop the conversation
Own it: the speaker replies, “Sorry, let us fix this.”
Report it: email conduct@diffy.gg (confidential)

This channel is for the conduct this Code covers: behavior by someone who represents or works with Diffy, or anything that happens in a Diffy space. For issues outside Diffy, like a player on another platform, use that platform’s own reporting tools.

If safety is at risk, contact emergency services first. For a safety or minor-protection concern, email safety@diffy.gg. If we believe a child has been harmed or is at risk, we will report it to the appropriate authorities, as the law requires. Concerns about a child’s safety in any Diffy space can be reported any time to safety@diffy.gg; if you believe a child is in immediate danger, call 911 or your local emergency number. We may also report other unlawful conduct to law enforcement. Reports are acknowledged within 1 business day. Retaliation is never tolerated.

6. Response process

We don’t actively monitor your personal accounts or private messages. But if conduct covered by this Code is reported to us, or otherwise comes to our attention, we look into it as we think appropriate. That can include reviewing what happened and speaking with the people involved. We keep a record.
Consequences depend on how serious the conduct is. They range from coaching to suspension to ending a contract.
Appeals can be made once, in writing, within 10 business days; a parent or guardian may appeal on behalf of a minor. We aim to decide within 15 business days, and where practical, someone not involved in the original decision reviews the appeal.

7. Our promise

Respect, empower, listen, protect — so everyone can focus on rising to their best.

8. Acknowledgment

All who represent Diffy confirm they have read, understood, and will follow this code.
