Participants are responsible for providing and maintaining their own equipment and ensuring their web browsers are up to date.

To participate in the exams and tournaments, students will need an internet-connected device. While an iPad with an external keyboard can be used, we strongly recommend using a laptop, desktop computer or Chromebook with a full keyboard and at least 4GB of RAM for optimal performance.

The platforms of the Coding Olympiad are web-based and work best on the latest versions of modern browsers, including Google Chrome (recommended), Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge and Safari (for Mac/iOS users). Please ensure your device has a stable internet connection throughout the competition. 

Cheating in any form is strictly prohibited and will not be tolerated. This includes, but is not limited to:

• Creating or using duplicate accounts
• Copying or submitting another student’s code
• Using AI tools, scripts, or third-party software to manipulate results
• Allowing others to complete tasks on your behalf
• Any attempt to unfairly improve rankings or bypass the rules
• All submissions must be the student's own original work.

The Coding Olympiad team will review suspicious activity and investigate any potential violations. If cheating is confirmed, participants may be disqualified without prior warning.
