CLAW Code of Conduct

Adopted by the CLAW Board of Directors, March 2019

  1. We do not condone predatory behavior, abuse or intimidation. No means no. Everyone attending a CLAW event has both the right and the responsibility to stop any unwanted behavior directed at them from others.
  2. Disrespect of the rights of other attendees will not be tolerated. People who are deemed a safety problem by CLAW management may be removed from the event without a ticket refund.

CLAW has an Incident Response Team ("IRT") trained in conflict resolution, counseling and other support. The IRT is available 24 hours a day for anyone at CLAW who reports offensive, unwanted behavior.

CLAW Drug Policy

In addition to the Code of Conduct, CLAW has a 0% tolerance for illegal drugs at our event. If you think you might have a problem with crystal, heroin, cocaine or other party drugs, please call 855-DRUGFREE.

CLAW Event Photography Policy

All of the CLAW events take place in what is considered "Public Domain," so your photo can be taken by anyone and used in any manner the photographer wishes. So be careful as to whom you allow to take your picture.

We respect your privacy, as do the members of the media/press and photographers that we allow to officially take photos at our events. They will have an official CLAW "Photographer" badge (in addition to their regular badge), and the photos they take may be shown on the CLAW (or other) website, be used for future CLAW promotions/advertising, or be placed in a gay/leather publication.
