The following policy was enacted on 1/31/2019 by the General Membership and 2019 Governing Council.
Desert Dominion Consent and Incident Reporting Policy
Desert Dominion leadership believes and requires that all interactions are between consenting adults. The organization rules are the foundation of this policy. This policy does not supersede the established rules; rather it provides further definition to the rules in regards to consent and incident reporting.
- Definition of Consent. For the purposes of interactions at Desert Dominion events, the definition of consent is explicit agreement verbally and/or in writing, that a person is willing to have something done to them by another person or persons or to perform acts for another person or persons, at their request.
- Consent, per established rules, cannot be given if the persons involved are incapable of making informed decisions.
- Consent can be withdrawn at any time. It is the responsibility of all persons interacting to stop once consent is withdrawn.
- Definition of interaction. Interactions involve BDSM play (scening), touching individuals and/or their belongings as well as general social interactions that take place at events.
