AI POLICY

Vendor Policy in Geek Week PDX Markeplaces

We are committed to maintaining the integrity of our creative spaces. Geek Week PDX does not allow AI artist or AI product in our Marketplaces, including Fantasy Fest.

  • Vetting Process: Our application process allows us to vet every creator before a booth is purchased. This ensures a diverse balance of vendors and allows us to filter out AI-generated portfolios.

  • Disclosure & Enforcement: While we expressly exclude any products containing AI elements, we also reserve the right to evaluate all offerings on-site. If a vendor is found to have misrepresented their work or is selling undisclosed AI products, we may request the removal of those specific items. In cases of significant or intentional misrepresentation, vendors may be asked to leave the event without a refund.

REPORTING

If you experience or notice any unacceptable behavior, or have any other concerns, please contact a Geek Week PDX. Geek Week PDX treats all reports as confidential and asks that Participants avoid disclosing information about an incident until Geek Week PDX has addressed the situation

Code of Conduct

Geek Week PDX passionately highlights the geeky events and activities happening in the Portland area. Our intention, as community advocates, is to collaborate with and highlight small businesses, artists, and other individuals equally committed to supporting the community.
