Community Guidelines

Last updated: September 2, 2026

rbqlicence.com and the Groupe GSC application

These guidelines apply to everything you publish on the Platform: feed, groups, questions and answers, comments, private messaging, Subcontractors and Marketplace directories, profile. They form part of the Terms of Use.

1. The spirit of the community

Groupe GSC is a space of mutual support for construction people in Quebec. People come here to ask questions, share their experience, find resources and do business. The principle is simple: behave as you would on a job site where you want to be called back.

2. What is prohibited

  • Harassment and intimidation: insults, threats, personal attacks, hateful or discriminatory remarks.
  • Illegal content: any content that breaks a law, incites an offence or facilitates undeclared work or work without the required licence.
  • False information: impersonating someone else, claiming to hold a licence or qualification you do not have, publishing information you know to be false.
  • Explicit content: sexual, violent or shocking content.
  • Spam: repetitive or off-topic posts, or unsolicited commercial solicitation, including through private messaging.
  • Other people's information: publishing a person's contact details, photos or information without their consent.
  • Fraud: misleading listings, scams, requests for payment outside the announced conditions.

3. Subcontractors and Marketplace directories

Listings must accurately describe the business, service or good offered. One listing per request or per item. Outdated listings must be removed. Transactions are concluded directly between users. GSC does not take part in them and does not guarantee them.

4. How moderation works

Published content goes through three levels:

  1. Automatic filter: server rules block certain content as soon as it is published (banned words, formats, frequency).
  2. Artificial intelligence review: the content, including the text in images, is analyzed by an AI system that flags content that may breach the guidelines.
  3. Human validation: a person at GSC reviews the content flagged by the AI or by members and decides on the measure to take.

Content may be removed or temporarily hidden by levels 1 and 2 before a person reviews it. You are then informed and may contest the decision. Every contestation is reviewed by a person.

5. Reporting

Any user may report content or behaviour from the Platform. GSC processes reports within 7 days. The reporting user is not informed of the measure taken, unless it concerns them directly.

6. Sanctions

Breaches are handled in steps:

  1. First warning
  2. Second warning
  3. Account suspension, from 24 hours to 30 days depending on severity
  4. Account deletion

In the event of a serious breach, in particular threats, fraud or illegal content, GSC may proceed directly to suspension or deletion, without notice.

The removal of content by moderation is not in itself a warning. A warning is given explicitly.

7. Contestation

You may contest any content removal, warning, suspension or deletion by writing to . Indicate the content or measure concerned and your explanations. A person at GSC will reply within 10 business days.

8. Changes

GSC may adapt these guidelines as the community evolves. Changes are communicated on the Platform.
