Baptists do not have any official set of rules. One of the main aspects of the Baptist faith is that each church is autonomous. The church's rules and guidelines can be set by the pastor, deacons, and/or church body as a whole. This decision to allow autonomy was one of the biggest reasons for the initial split from Catholicism, which early Baptists and Anabaptists believed was not using the Bible to lead the church.
