Code of Conduct

We value Final Three Con being a place where all people can feel safe, respected, and welcome.

If you feel unsafe or harassed or notice that someone else may feel this way, we encourage you to report it as soon as you can. Beyond reporting, each of us can make a difference in fostering a caring and mindful community: please feel empowered to stand up for your fellow con-goers and say something if you feel that the spirit of our Code of Conduct is being violated.

You can create a report by either submitting one through this reporting form or by contacting any convention team member in a Final Three Con Volunteer shirt. If you are unclear on what constitutes reportable behavior, please see our full harassment policy below.

Unauthorized Representation & Authority Policy

Purpose & Context

Final Three Con is a community-driven event built on trust, clarity, and accountability. Authority and representation must be clearly defined to protect attendees, partners, exhibitors, stakeholders, and the organizing team. Unauthorized claims of organizer status or authority create confusion, introduce legal and financial risk, and undermine community trust. This policy exists solely to prevent misrepresentation and unauthorized activity and is not intended to limit community participation, enthusiasm, or support.

Only individuals explicitly authorized in writing by Final Three Con may represent, speak for, or act on behalf of the event in any capacity.

Authorized representatives are limited to:

Members of the Final Three Con Leadership Team
Designated Final Three Con Area Managers (as directed by the Leadership Team)

Claim or imply affiliation, authority, or insider status with Final Three Con, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
Present themselves as an organizer, staff member, coordinator, partner, or official representative.

Active volunteers may identify themselves as volunteers while at the event, including by wearing official volunteer badges or t-shirts.

Volunteers may accurately state that they have volunteered at Final Three Con, but may not claim organizer, staff, or leadership status.

Volunteers may not determine or enforce violations of Final Three Con rules or policies. Final authority rests with the Leadership Team.

Brand, Scope & Intent

Unauthorized individuals may not use Final Three Con’s name, logo, branding, titles, badges, or communication formats in a way that implies authority or official representation.

Content creator partners and other explicitly authorized partners may use Final Three Con provided materials and may accurately reference their affiliation solely for the duration and scope of their authorized partnership. Such use does not grant authority to speak for, act on behalf of, or make decisions for Final Three Con.

This policy applies to all environments, including in person, online, social media, private messages, and third-party platforms.

This policy does not restrict normal attendee participation or community support.
