+# Code of Conduct
+
+## Overview
+
+This document defines the Code of Conduct followed and enforced for NVIDIA C++
+  Core Compute Libraries.
+
+### Intended Audience
+
+* Community
+* Developers
+* Project Leads
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
+  contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
+  our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age,
+  body size, disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and
+  expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality,
+  personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment include:
+
+- Using welcoming and inclusive language.
+- Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences.
+- Gracefully accepting constructive criticism.
+- Focusing on what is best for the community.
+- Showing empathy towards other community members.
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
+
+- The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
+    advances.
+- Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks.
+- Public or private harassment.
+- Publishing others’ private information, such as a physical or electronic
+    address, without explicit permission.
+- Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate.
+
+## Our Responsibilities
+
+Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
+  behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+  response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
+
+Project maintainers have 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 ban temporarily or
+  permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
+  threatening, offensive, or harmful.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
+  when an individual is representing the project or its community.
+Examples of representing a project or community include using an official
+  project email 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.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+  reported by contacting [cpp-conduct@nvidia.com](mailto:cpp-conduct@nvidia.com).
+All complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response
+  that is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances.
+The project team is obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the
+  reporter of an incident.
+Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
+
+Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
+  faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
+  members of the project’s leadership.
