  • Anime Twin Cities (ATC) is committed in all areas to providing an environment that is free from harassment. Harassment based upon an individual's race, ethnicity, national origin, age, religion, sex, gender, mental or physical attributes or any other legally protected characteristics will not be tolerated. All staff, including supervisors and other management personnel, are expected and required to abide by this policy. No person will be adversely affected by involvement with the ATC as a result of bringing complaints of unlawful harassment.

Harassment is behavior of an unwanted nature that is unwelcome and offensive to the person or persons it is targeted toward. Examples of harassing behavior may include unwanted physical contact, foul language of an offensive nature, propositions, jokes or remarks, obscene gestures, and displays of pornographic or sexually explicit pictures, drawings, or caricatures. Use of Anime Twin Cities’ technology for the purpose of viewing, displaying, or disseminating material that is sexual or derogatory in nature may also constitute harassing behavior.

If a staff member or attendee feels that they have been harassed on the basis of their race, ethnicity, national origin, age, religion, sex, gender, mental or physical attributes or any other legally protected characteristics they should immediately report the matter to their supervisor. If that person is not available, or if they feel it would be unproductive to inform that person, they should immediately contact that supervisor's superior or another member of management staff or the ATC Board directly. Once the matter has been reported it will be promptly investigated and any necessary corrective action will be taken where appropriate. All complaints of unlawful harassment will be handled in as discreet and confidential a manner as is possible under the circumstances.

Any staff member engaging in improper and or harassing behavior will be subject to disciplinary action, including the possible removal from staff and being banned from any and all ATC sponsored events.
