CODE OF CONDUCT

Updated on 1st of January, 2026. #ACM

CODE OF ETHICS & RULES

A CODE OF CONDUCT is a formal written document and / or a page outlining the ethical principles, rules and expected behaviors for any individual within a organisation, community or group guiding them to act and react with integrity, professionalism, fairness to ensuring a very positive, compliant, safe and respectful environment for both internal and external interactions / dealings. It sets clear standards and boundaries for CONDUCT defining what is acceptable (confidentially, objectivity and competence) and what's not, holds ground and members, anyone else accountable or being responsible for their own actions, sayings so by being responsible for adherence example as following the safety

protocols as target. ACM takes actions by updating this CODE OF CONDUCT on

this website. ACM reserves all the rights to remain absolutely 120% silent of

everything else which is not written anywhere in this website and ACM stands for

SILENCE SPEAKS VOLUMES. ACM's Founder himself is a gamer who debuted in fall of 2007 where the game communities were not evolved that much, the old school generation of gaming since 2001 was at a very startup level of performances and we had a lot of retro games, old 1st-person shooting games as Vietcong, Vietcong Fist Alpha, Counter-Strike 1.6, Counter-Strike: Condition Zero, Counter-Strike Source to name a few. Years passed by and we have evolved a lot with graphics, hardware and with the technology itself that we have today and creating ACM was a long time coming call, many many clans has fallen, many gaming communities they had lost their identity, names and logos so starting 1st of January 2026 the logo of ACM, the main mission is to rise above anything else that is irrelevant nowadays by following these specific set of RULES. ACM wants to build a multi-platform gaming community as well via its own Discord Server.

KEY ASPECTS OF A CODE OF CONDUCT

Guidance: Provides a net framework for decision-making and actions, acting as a

compass for employees or non-employees within ACM grounds.

Standards: Defines norms for professional, social and ethical behavior covering areas like HONESTY, LOYALTY, RESPECT and CONFLICT OF INTERESTS.

For example by treating every woman with dignity. It's important to treat everyone with respect and ACM stands for mutual respect, collaboration & agreement.

Compliance: Ensures alignment with laws, regulations and company values by

promoting legal and ethical operations only.

Culture: Helps building strong relationships, both personal and professional

relationships but also builds a positive, inclusive and safe work environment by

setting expectations for equal treatment and interaction.

Accountability: Establishes consequences for violations, ensuring members to

understand all their responsibilities. ACM believes in a chain of command where anyone must fall in line, but also fall in love with entertainment (gaming, watching movies, TV shows, as well for actors, graphic designers, music producers etc.) If anyone doesn't know their places unfortunately ACM has no other choice but to step in and to put these people into their places with an immediate effect.

CODE OF CONDUCT vs. CODE OF ETHICS

Code of Ethics: Aspirational, focusing on broad values, core values and principles by doing what's best for business and what's best for any individuals.

Code of Conduct: Specific, rule-based and practical what and when to do exactly and what and when not to do. At ACM there's no place for DISRESPECT and DISGRACE TO HUMAN RACE.

Relationships: A CODE OF ETHICS often forms a strong format and foundation for the more detailed rules in a specific CODE OF CONDUCT. In essence it is the rulebook for how to behave within a specific setting, ensuring everyone's private life that is safe and to ensure that everyone follows and operates consistently and ethically, by being not only theoretically but also practically. Rules are made to be followed without questions asked.

"By being not only theoretically but also practically" means and describes achieving real-world effectiveness, moving beyond just understanding concepts (theory) to actually implementing them successfully (practice), bridging the gap where ideas meet reality often involving testing, application and adapting to real variables for tangible results as exemplified by Kurt Lewin's quote, "There is nothing more practical than a good theory." Which means making abstract knowledge useful in concrete situations, a core aspect of disciplines like philosophy (practical philosophy) and sciences.

ACM IS COMMITTED TO APPLY THIS COC

ACM is both personally and professionally committed to fighting toxicity and unfair play by applying this CODE OF CONDUCT "COC". In this continued effort, we have set and established a Brand New Name and Image as recognised as ACM itself. The ACM community is all against unlawful operations such as: Disrespect, Domestic Violence, Rape, Sexual Harassment, Abuse of Power, Criminal Acts, Fraud, Defamations, Personal Attacks like violators for Women, attacking ACM as a new brand identity, a symbol for an honorable man, including the Brand's Name and Image of ACM, Terrorism, Assault, Aggressiveness, invading someone's life privacy and any other damage that can be caused at any time and place by anyone. ACM exists only to prevent any past, present or future damages. ACM learns from the past experiences as well so any possible new event can be prevented for future minor / major damages.

While there isn't one single universal symbol, common representations for an

honorable man often involve concepts like Truth, Integrity, Loyalty and Courage often depicted through figures like knights or samurai or symbolic items such as a lion (strength / nobility), a sword (justice / duty) or a white lily (purity / virtue), by embodying actions like always keeping promises, serving others, to serve and protect closed friends and co-workers and to uphold high moral standards without any doubt.

Common Symbols and Qualities:

Lion: Represents courage, nobility and strength of character.
Sword: Symbolizes justice, duty and the readiness to defend principles.
White Lily / Rose: Signifies purity, virtue and integrity.
Knight / Samurai: Archetypes embodying chivalry, honor codes and self-sacrifice.

BEHAVIOURS

Treat everyone with RESPECT. At ACM, we do not tolerate bullying or harassment direct or indirect including derogatory comments based on race, gender, identity or any other expression, sexual orientation, age, culture, religion, mental or physical ability and national origin or the glorification of any person, program or movement that promotes discrimination or violence based on any of the above by applying this "COC". All official or unofficial members of ACM community should be treated with dignity and respect. Communication with others, whether through text or voice chat should not contain any offensive or harmful language and images. Sharing very intimate images is not allowed, hate speech and any discriminatory language are offensive and unacceptable by ACM's standards as such bullying and threatening another individuals too.

LET'S FIGHT WITH INTEGRITY: Competitive integrity is at the heart of ACM logo.

Progression, money, respect and trust is earned through good, fair path to success. Harassment or other life threats to fair play will never ever be tolerated by ACM. You are so responsible for how your own account is used or being used for. Exploiting any other activity that provides an unfair advantage is considered A BREACH OF LAW. ACM IS THE LAW.

LET'S STAY VIGILANT: Together at ACM we all can keep a real, fair, fun, enjoyable

and very pleasant experience for everyone that can adhere and agree to. Please

report incidents or inappropriate behavior.

SECURITY AND ENFORCEMENT: ACM is committed to providing a fun and fair experience for all to enjoy and consider our role in detecting and addressing violations vital to maintaining a high level and enjoyable playing field. If you do believe that a suspension or termination of a contract was unfairly imposed, you can file an appeal and we can create a case file.

Learn more about ACM's Security and Enforcement policies here. Security and Enforcement policies do involve protecting people, assets and data through technologies and personnel (like POLICE or PRIVATE GUARDS) to ensure that rules are followed, prevent threats and respond to incidents by covering public safety (EUROPOL, NATIONAL POLICE) to private sectors (CORPORATE SECURITY, GAME POLICIES) and financial security (LENDER RECOVERY). Enforcement brings these securiy measures to life, applying controls like firewalls, access controls or physical presence to uphold standards and deter violations.

KEY AREAS OF SECURITY and ENFORCEMENT Public Safety and Law Enforcement. Police, Military Police or Specialized Agencies (like EUROPOL) enforce laws, protect citizens and Counter Crime-Terrorism often using advanced tech like very big data analytics, hacks and cheats.
Corporate and Digital Security: Companies enforce policies via firewalls, multi-factor authentication (MFA) and access controls to protect data and systems from breaches.

Private Security: Guards and Security Police protect specific properties or events by maintaining order and detaining suspects until public police arrives.

Financial Security: Lenders enforce security interests (collateral) to recover debts, often through legal processes outside court (SARFAESI INDIAN ACT) or the Mortgage Enforcement in The Netherlands.

Online and Gaming: Companies like ACTIVISION have security teams that enforce user policies, reviewing infractions before action like bans.

Security establishes the rules, assets and vulnerabilities (example a firewall protecting a network). Enforcement applies and upholds those rules (example

the firewall blocks unauthorized traffic). This balance often involves navigating fundamental rights, data privacy (GDPR) and the evolving challenges of digital environments, requiring robust legal frameworks and ethical considerations.

Unlawful operations refer to any activity performed without legal authority or violation of laws, regulations or proper conduct covering a broad spectrum from minor to major infractions like driving off-road where prohibited to serious crimes as Assault, Violations, Fraud, Terrorism or even actions outside legal bounds like the real unauthorized government surveillance "BLACK OPS" or historical euphemisms for illegal abortions all implying a breach of established rules or rights. Actions performed without legal authority or the proper social conduct which leads to a contrary to established rules and statutes. Contrast with "ILLEGAL" while often used interchangeably "UNLAWFUL" can be broader encompassing breaches of rules as handball in sports while "illegal" strictly means against the written law. ACM is about Lifestyle, Fitness, Gym Workouts so it is considered a Sport Business at its core and it is expanding to graphic designs, gaming and more.

EXAMPLES ACROSS CONTEXTS

Vehicles: Driving motorized vehicles on city-owned lands, sidewalks or waterways without proper authorization or recklessly driving actions.

Business / Regulatory: A motor carrier operating without a license or violating commission rules.
