Introduction

As an investor in the Twisted Artists Guild, you play a crucial role in the governance and success of our organization. This Code of Conduct outlines the expectations and obligations of shareholders to uphold our values and protect the integrity of our community. Stockholders are also subject to the behaviors outlined in the Code of Conduct for Public Customers, and these expectations are in addition to those.

Responsibilities and Expectations

• Ethical Conduct: Demonstrate integrity and honesty in all dealings related to the guild. Avoid conflicts of interest and disclose any potential conflicts promptly.

• Confidentiality: Maintain the confidentiality of sensitive or proprietary information. Do not disclose non-public information for personal gain.

Prohibited Conduct

• Offensive Behavior: Engaging in offensive or discriminatory behavior is unacceptable and harms the guild's reputation and community trust.

• Misuse of Position: Do not use your status as a shareholder to improperly influence or coerce others. Avoid any form of bribery or unethical inducements.

• Financial Misconduct: Insider trading or using confidential information for personal financial gain is prohibited. Misrepresentation of financial interests or holdings is not allowed.

Enforcement and Consequences

• Forfeiture of Privileges: Persistent violations may lead to compulsory divestment of shares. Shareholders engaging in prohibited conduct may forfeit their rights to own shares or be forced to convert Common shares into Preferred, thereby removing their voting power.

• Disciplinary Actions: The guild reserves the right to take appropriate actions, including legal remedies, based on factual findings and adherence to due process.

• Legal Compliance: All actions taken will be in accordance with applicable laws and the shareholder agreement.

Additional Notes for Investors

• The guild supports a creative and collaborative environment where artists and art lovers connect. While intimate details about art may be shared, this is not an invitation for inappropriate behavior. Always seek consent before sharing personal or provocative content.

• The guild requires legal names for financial reasons but supports the use of pseudonyms in communications to protect privacy.

• Any egregious behavior, such as unsolicited explicit content or threats, may result in immediate bans or ejections from events.

• Investors can expect fair treatment and expeditious service, with the guild standing behind its sales agreements. Issues may be reviewed by staff and potentially elevated for further action.
