Community Agreements

The following agreements form the foundation of how we show up for one another in Purple Space. They are adapted from the altMBA agreements.

We are curious, open and respectful

This is a space to learn, share and grow together while showing respect for one another’s basic personhood. We practice inner inquiry. We ask questions. We are open to observations of our behavior, and we are open to sharing feedback with others regarding their actions. We help each other learn and grow by “calling in” (to conversation) instead of “calling out” (with blame). We stretch our willingness to be uncomfortable.

We honor confidentiality

“What is shared here stays here, what is learned here is shared widely.” If something is communicated in a specific space, we don’t share it beyond that group without permission from the person who shared it. If something is communicated that changes the way that we think and process, we share the benefits of that new awareness.

We are generous

Being mindful of the wellbeing of the group means taking care of ourselves and each other. We celebrate our progress and find a sense of play in our work. We forgive ourselves when we make mistakes and embrace that, while we all want to strive to improve ourselves, we are also enough as we are. We ask for what we need and offer what we can.

We speak from our own experience

We make sure we’re not generalizing to entire groups of people or presuming anything about someone else’s experience. We speak with “I” statements and questions (I believe, I wonder, I struggle with, I was hurt by, etc.) and we reflect on the social identities we carry that impact our experiences.

We are better together

No one knows everything and together we know a lot. Each person is coming to any given conversation with different levels of lived experience and embodied expertise. We believe that each person has something to contribute. We practice being humble and looking for what we have to learn from each person in the room.

We make space for each other

We contribute to the creation of spaces where everyone can be seen, and so we strive to both share generously and listen deeply. If we tend not to speak a lot, we consider sharing our voice with the group. If we tend to speak a lot, we practice making space for others.

We can’t be articulate all the time

We want everyone to feel comfortable participating, even if we don’t feel we have the perfect words to express our thoughts. Hesitation and stumbling are part of honest conversation.

We can disagree without shaming or blaming

Disagreements are natural, and can foster growth. We make space for multiple realities and practice “both/and” thinking. We are willing to accept a lack of closure and agreement. We can disagree and stay connected.

We are mindful of jargon, acronyms, and industry language

We use inclusive language that is accessible for people with varying inside knowledge.

We acknowledge the difference between intent and impact

When we do or say something that causes harm, it is often not our intention to do so. But when we use our good intentions to deny the harm, more harm is caused. We each do the work to acknowledge that our intent and the impact of our actions are two different things, and we take responsibility for any negative impact we have.

Terms of Service

These terms govern your use of the Purple Space community forum operated by Do You Zoom, Inc. By using the forum, you agree to these terms.

Artificial Intelligence Tools

Purple Space uses and will continue to introduce artificial intelligence tools designed to enhance community engagement and create useful interactions for members. These AI tools may read and analyze content you post publicly within the community—including topics, replies, and other shared contributions—in order to provide relevant responses, surface insights, and support learning. Your direct messages (DMs) are private and will not be accessed, read, or used by any AI system. By participating in Purple Space, you acknowledge that your publicly posted content may be processed by AI for these purposes. We are committed to using AI in ways that are consistent with our community agreements: with curiosity, care, and respect for every member.

Content Standards

You may not submit content to the forum that is illegal, offensive, or otherwise harmful to others—including content that is harassing, inappropriate, abusive, or hateful. You may not submit content that violates the law, infringes intellectual property rights, violates anyone’s privacy, or breaches agreements you have with others. You may not submit content containing malicious code, use the forum to disclose information you don’t have the right to disclose, or submit placeholder content to hold a particular address or identifier.

Enforcement

The company may investigate and prosecute violations of these terms to the fullest legal extent, and may notify and cooperate with law enforcement authorities. The company reserves the right to change, redact, and delete content on the forum for any reason. If you believe someone has submitted content in violation of these terms, contact us immediately.

Your Account

You must create and log into an account to use some features of the forum. To create an account, you must provide a valid e-mail address and keep it up-to-date. You may close your account at any time by e-mailing hello@purple.space. You agree to be responsible for all action taken using your account until you close it or notify us that it has been compromised. You agree to select a secure password and keep it secret.

Your Content

Nothing in these terms gives the company any ownership rights in intellectual property you share with the forum. Content you submit belongs to you, and you decide what permission to give others for it. At a minimum, you license the company to provide content that you submit to other users of the forum—including the right to copy, publish, and analyze it. When content you submit is removed, the company’s license ends when the last copy disappears from the company’s backups and systems.

Your Responsibility

You agree to indemnify the company from legal claims by others related to your breach of these terms, or breach of these terms by others using your account. Both you and the company agree to notify the other side of any legal claims as soon as possible.

Disclaimers

You accept all risk of using the forum and content on the forum. As far as the law allows, the company and its suppliers provide the forum as is, without any warranty whatsoever. The forum may hyperlink to and integrate services run by others; the company does not make any warranty about those services.

Limits on Liability

Neither the company nor its suppliers will be liable to you for breach-of-contract damages their personnel could not have reasonably foreseen when you agreed to these terms. As far as the law allows, the total liability to you for claims of any kind related to the forum will be limited to $50.

Feedback

The company welcomes your feedback and suggestions. You agree that the company will be free to act on feedback you provide without obligation to notify you, get your permission, or pay you.

Termination

Either you or the company may end the agreement at any time. When our agreement ends, your permission to use the forum also ends. The following provisions survive termination: Your Content, Feedback, Your Responsibility, Disclaimers, Limits on Liability, and General Terms.

Disputes

New York law will govern any dispute related to these terms or your use of the forum. You and the company agree to seek injunctions related to these terms only in state or federal court in New York, New York. Other than to seek an injunction or for claims under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, you and the company will resolve any dispute by binding American Arbitration Association arbitration. Arbitration will follow the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes, and will happen in New York, New York. You will settle any dispute as an individual, and not as part of a class action or other representative proceeding.

General Terms

If a provision of these terms is unenforceable as written but could be changed to make it enforceable, that provision should be modified to the minimum extent necessary. You may not assign your agreement with the company. The company may assign your agreement to any affiliate, any company that obtains control of the company, or any company that buys relevant assets. These terms embody all the terms of agreement between you and the company about use of the forum and entirely replace any prior agreements.

Contact

You may notify the company and send questions to: hello@purple.space. The company may notify you using the e-mail address you provide for your account, or by posting a message to the homepage of the forum or your account page.

Changes

The company last updated these terms on March 4, 2026, and may update these terms again. The company will post all updates to the forum. For updates that contain substantial changes, the company agrees to e-mail you if you’ve created an account and provided a valid e-mail address.
