-## Our Pledge
-
-The Qiskit Community is dedicated to our values of treating every individual
-with respect and dignity. In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming
-environment, all participants, including attendees, speakers, sponsors,
-volunteers, online contributors, and IBM employees are expected to show
-courtesy for each other and our community by creating a harassment-free
-experience for everyone, regardless of age, personal appearance, disability,
-ethnicity, gender identity and expression, body size, level of experience,
-nationality, race, religion, caste, or sexual identity and orientation.
-Expected behavior applies to both online and offline engagement within the
-Qiskit Community.
-
-## Scope
-
-The purpose of this Code of Conduct is to define and enforce the values and
-conduct of contributors and participants in the Qiskit open source community.
-The Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
-when an individual is engaging with the Qiskit open source community. Examples
-include attending a Qiskit event, contributing to online projects, commentary
-on Slack, or representing a project or community, including 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.
-
-## Our Standards

-## Responsibilities & Enforcement
-
-The entire Qiskit community is responsible for upholding the terms of the Code
-of Conduct in Qiskit Community events and spaces and reporting violations if
-they see them. The internal Qiskit team at IBM is ultimately responsible for
-clarifying the standards of acceptable behavior and enforcement, and is expected
-to take appropriate and fair corrective action in response to any instances of
-unacceptable behavior.
-
-If a participant or contributor engages in negative or harmful behavior, IBM
-will take any action they deem appropriate, including but not limited to
-issuing warnings, expulsion from an event with no refund, deleting comments,
-permanent banning from future events or online community, or calling local law
-enforcement. IBM has 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 temporarily or permanently ban any
-contributor or participant for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
-threatening, offensive, or harmful.
-
-If you see a Code of Conduct violation:

-1. If you feel comfortable, let the person know that what they did is not
-   appropriate and ask them to stop and/or edit or delete their message(s) or
-   comment(s).
-2. If the person does not immediately stop the behavior or correct the issue,
-   or if you're uncomfortable speaking up, flag a moderator and, if appropriate,
-   fill out the anonymous
-   [Code of Conduct violation form](https://airtable.com/shrl5mEF4Eun1aIDm).
-3. The Qiskit Community will open an investigation upon receiving your form
-   entry. When reporting, please include any relevant details, links,
-   screenshots, context, or other information that may be used to better
-   understand and resolve the situation.
-4. If the code of conduct violation occurs at an event and requires immediate
-   response or contains a concern about an individual attending an upcoming
-   event, contact the event's on-call Code of Conduct point of contact listed
-   in the event specific code of conduct document. If you don't feel comfortable
-   speaking to the point of contact in person, fill out a Code of Conduct
-   violation form entry and include the details of the event so that the Code of
-   Conduct enforcement board can contact the event's on-call Code of Conduct
-   point of contact.
-5. If an IBM employee witnesses a Code of Conduct violation at any time, such as
-   at events, in a Slack channel, or open source forums, it is their
-   responsibility to file a Code of Conduct violation report.
