1. No touching people or personal property without permission.

2. Treat everyone as an equal and only engage in verbal role-play if you have permission. For example, don’t call someone a “Mistress” or “slave” or any other role-play or derogatory words like “bitch”, “slut” and “whore” unless you’ve asked for permission.

3. Negotiate the scope of your play prior to the activities, including whether there will be any contact with areas like the breasts, butts and genitals. Each person must give verbal consent to the proposed acts before any playing or scenes begins.

4. Each participant is responsible to make sure everyone involved has the mental and emotional ability to give informed and voluntary consent for the scene. If someone is obviously intoxicated, they cannot consent. Please report them to our staff members.

5. Depending on all participants’ state of mind, we recommend that you don’t renegotiate in the middle of playing or in the middle of your scene. When a person is in subspace or otherwise not in a clear state of mind, you may not have informed consent even though they agree in the heat of the moment.

6. Anyone can withdraw consent, make a nonverbal safe sign or use the universal safeword “Red” at any time. Once consent is withdrawn, the activity must stop immediately. Partners need to share the safewords or safe signs that are being used.

7. In BDSM play, the top is legally responsible for stopping the activities at any suggestion that the bottom has withdrawn consent. The bottom is ethically responsible for being clear and unequivocal when withdrawing consent.

8. If you experience or witness a consent incident, tell a staff member immediately. Violation of this consent policy may result in expulsion from the event or termination of membership. No one is exempt from the rules. Disclaimer: Every reasonable effort will be made to enforce this policy, but VAULT72 makes no representations or guarantees about its ability to do so, and all participants/attendees retain full, sole responsibility for their safety and the safety of others with whom they interact.
