Dark Carnival has a Zero Tolerance Policy towards any acts of violence or sexual harassment and will not be tolerated. All attendees, exhibitors and staff should be treated with dignity and mutual respect.

Dark Carnival encourages all attendees, exhibitors and staff to exercise reasonable judgment in identifying potentially dangerous situations. Threats, threatening language, or any other acts of aggressions, violence or sexual harassment made toward or by any attendee/exhibitor/staff will NOT be tolerated.

For purposes of this policy, a threat includes but is not limited to any verbal or physical harassment or abuse, attempts at intimidating or instilling fear in others, menacing gestures, flashing of weapons, stalking, or any other hostile, aggressive, injurious and /or destructive actions undertaken for the purpose of domination or intimidation. 

Dark Carnival expressly prohibits any acts or threats of violence or sexual harassment by any attendee, exhibitor or staff against another in or around the convention facilities or elsewhere at any time. All reports of violence or sexual harassment will promptly be investigated by show security.

If an investigation confirms that a threat of a violent act, or violence/sexual harassment itself has occurred, Dark Carnival will take swift appropriate corrective action with regard to the offending person, up to and including immediate discharge from the show and the facility in a permanent manner.

Authorities will be dispatched if required.
