+# Contributor Code of Conduct
 
-## Our Pledge
+As contributors and maintainers of this project,
+and in the interest of fostering an open and welcoming community,
+we pledge to respect all people who contribute through reporting issues,
+posting feature requests, updating documentation,
+submitting pull requests or patches, and other activities.
 
-In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
-contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
-our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
-size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of
-experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance,
-race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
-
-## Our Standards

-Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
-include:
-
-*   Using welcoming and inclusive language
-*   Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
-*   Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
-*   Focusing on what is best for the community
-*   Showing empathy towards other community members
+We are committed to making participation in this project
+a harassment-free experience for everyone,
+regardless of level of experience, gender, gender identity and expression,
+sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance,
+body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, or nationality.
 
 Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
 
-*   The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
-    advances
-*   Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
-*   Public or private harassment
-*   Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
-    address, without explicit permission
-*   Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
-    professional setting
-
-## Our Responsibilities
-
-Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
-behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
-response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery
+* Personal attacks
+* Trolling or insulting/derogatory comments
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing other's private information,
+such as physical or electronic
+addresses, without explicit permission
+* Other unethical or unprofessional conduct.
 
 Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
-comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are
-not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or permanently any
-contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate, threatening,
-offensive, or harmful.
-
-## Scope
-
-This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
-when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
-representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
-address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
-representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
-further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
-
-This Code of Conduct also applies outside the project spaces when the Project
-Steward has a reasonable belief that an individual's behavior may have a
-negative impact on the project or its community.
-
-## Conflict Resolution
-
-We do not believe that all conflict is bad; healthy debate and disagreement
-often yield positive results. However, it is never okay to be disrespectful or
-to engage in behavior that violates the project’s code of conduct.
-
-If you see someone violating the code of conduct, you are encouraged to address
-the behavior directly with those involved. Many issues can be resolved quickly
-and easily, and this gives people more control over the outcome of their
-dispute. If you are unable to resolve the matter for any reason, or if the
-behavior is threatening or harassing, report it. We are dedicated to providing
-an environment where participants feel welcome and safe.
-
-Reports should be directed to Kurtis van Gent
-([[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])), the
-Project Steward for cloud-sql-python-connector. It is the Project Steward’s duty to
-receive and address reported violations of the code of conduct. They will then
-work with a committee consisting of representatives from the Open Source
-Programs Office and the Google Open Source Strategy team. If for any reason you
-are uncomfortable reaching out the Project Steward, please email
-[email protected].
-
-We will investigate every complaint, but you may not receive a direct response.
-We will use our discretion in determining when and how to follow up on reported
-incidents, which may range from not taking action to permanent expulsion from
-the project and project-sponsored spaces. We will notify the accused of the
-report and provide them an opportunity to discuss it before any action is taken.
-The identity of the reporter will be omitted from the details of the report
-supplied to the accused. In potentially harmful situations, such as ongoing
-harassment or threats to anyone's safety, we may take action without notice.
