The Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) is committed to ensuring a safe, welcoming, and respectful environment at its events.

At ACC sponsored events you must always treat others with respect and civility

This Code of Conduct applies to all ACC sponsored events and any related events or social gatherings. Events sponsored by ACC Chapters will be governed by that Chapter’s Event Code of Conduct.

This Code of Conduct applies to anyone involved in an ACC sponsored event, including all ACC employees and staff, ACC members, attendees, guests, speakers, volunteers, sponsors, exhibiters, vendors and venue staff.  This policy is subject to change without notice.

  • Displaying inappropriate visual information
  • Possession of weapons or illegal substances

  • Any behavior that ACC believes lacks respect or civility

Complaints

Contact local law enforcement or emergency services immediately if you notice a dangerous situation, threats of violence or someone in distress. 

To report Unacceptable Conduct at an event, contact a member of ACC staff as soon as possible or file a complaint at http://www.acc.ethicspoint.com.

You may make Complaints anonymously. Whatever information you can provide, including identifying witnesses, will be helpful. 

All reports will be kept as confidential as possible.
