Anyone who feels they are in a situation where their safety is compromised or who becomes aware of anyone violating any part of this Code of Conduct should immediately locate the nearest security officer or EXXXOTICA team member so the matter can be handled in an expeditious manner.
If security is not in the immediate area, please text “SECURE” to (215) 445-1170 and both EXXXOTICA’s Security and/or Show Management will immediately respond.
EXXXOTICA Officials will take prompt action in any form they deem appropriate, including expulsion from the event with no refund.
This Code of Conduct applies to everyone at the convention: exhibitors, fans (attendees), speakers, guests, professionals, press, staff, volunteers and security are all subject to our anti-harassment policy.
If at any time you have been made to feel uncomfortable, or if you witness another person being harassed, you should immediately contact a staff or a security team member. If necessary, we will contact local law enforcement, provide escort, offer a safe place or otherwise assist those experiencing harassment.
We appreciate everyone’s cooperation and understanding in keeping our event protected and making it an event that gives individuals and groups the ability to express themselves safely and without judgement or prosecution.
BE SAFE. BE SEXY. HAVE FUN.
