Community Guidelines

Last updated: 2 August 2026

JobAvion is a professional network for the aviation community — pilots, cabin crew, engineers, technicians, drone operators, students, and the companies that work with them. These guidelines keep the platform safe, useful, and respectful for everyone. By using JobAvion, you agree to follow them.

1. Be Respectful and Professional

Treat every member as you would a colleague at work. Disagreement is fine; disrespect is not.

No personal attacks, insults, or demeaning comments.
No harassment, bullying, stalking, or threats of any kind.
No hate speech or discrimination based on race, nationality, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, or disability.

2. Keep It Relevant and Honest

JobAvion is built around aviation careers, training, and knowledge sharing.

Use your real identity. Impersonating another person, company, or authority is prohibited.
Do not misrepresent your licenses, ratings, qualifications, or experience.
Post content that is relevant to aviation professionals and the platform's purpose.

3. No Spam or Manipulation

No unsolicited advertising, bulk messaging, or repetitive self-promotion.
No fake reviews, vote manipulation, or coordinated inauthentic activity.
No scams, phishing, pyramid schemes, or fraudulent job or service offers.

4. Reviews and Feedback in Good Faith

Feedback about a company or a training provider may only be left by someone whose working relationship with that company we have confirmed, and it must describe that person's own first-hand experience. In practice this means:

Write about what happened to you, not what you heard from someone else.
Keep it to the organisation and how it operates. Do not name individual colleagues or managers below accountable-manager level.
Mark opinion as opinion. "I found the roster unpredictable" is fair comment; "they falsify records" is an allegation of fact you must be able to substantiate.
Never post feedback you were paid, pressured or instructed to write, about a company you have not worked with, or with the purpose of damaging rather than informing.

We do not remove feedback because a company dislikes it, and we do not sell removal or score improvement to anyone. We do remove feedback that is fabricated, that identifies an individual unnecessarily, or that states as fact something the author cannot stand behind. Section 18 of the Terms of Use sets out the full rules, including the company's right of reply.

5. Protect Safety-Critical and Confidential Information

Technical discussions, logbooks, and shared documents are for peer knowledge only — they never replace official manufacturer or regulatory documentation.
Do not share information that violates an employer confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement.
Never present platform content as approved data for actual flight operations or maintenance decisions.
Do not post export-controlled technical data, proprietary manuals, or manufacturer documentation you are not licensed to distribute.
This platform is not a safety-reporting channel. If you have an aviation safety concern, report it through your organisation's occurrence-reporting system and to your competent authority. Do not post material from a confidential safety report here — those systems exist precisely because that information is protected, and publishing it undermines them and may expose you personally.

6. Content Produced With AI

You are responsible for anything you post, whether you wrote it yourself or an AI wrote it for you. "The assistant said so" is not a defence.
Check AI-generated text before you publish it. Models invent regulation numbers, part numbers and citations that look entirely real.
Do not present AI output as an official source, an authority interpretation, or approved technical data.
Do not use AI to generate fake credentials, fake experience, fake feedback or a profile of a person who does not exist.
Do not post synthetic images or audio of a real person or organisation in a way that could mislead.

7. Respect Privacy

Do not share another person's private information — phone numbers, home addresses, private messages, or documents — without their consent.

8. Stay On-Platform for Recruitment

Where the platform facilitates paid connections between candidates and employers or agencies, do not attempt to circumvent the system by moving contact off-platform before the agreed step is completed. This protects both candidates and the integrity of the marketplace.

9. Enforcement

Our moderation team reviews reports and may take action when these guidelines are broken. Depending on the severity and history, this can include:

Warning — a notice that your behavior breached the guidelines, with a chance to correct it.
Mute — a temporary restriction on posting, commenting, and creating topics.
Account Freeze — temporary loss of access to most features (you can still reach Settings and your Profile).
Ban — permanent removal from the platform for serious or repeated violations.

How we decide. We act proportionately: we look at what was actually posted, at the harm it causes, at whether it was deliberate, and at your history. A first misjudged post is not treated like a repeated pattern. We do not restrict an account merely because someone complained about it.

You will be told. Whenever we remove your content or restrict your account, we tell you what was affected, on what ground, whether an automated system was involved in detecting it, and how to contest it. That is what Article 17 of the Digital Services Act requires, and we treat it as a minimum rather than a ceiling.

You can contest it, and a human will look. You have six months from our decision to challenge it, free of charge, by writing to office@jobavion.com. The review is carried out by a person, not by the system that made the original decision. If we got it wrong we reinstate the content or lift the restriction and tell you so. You may also take the matter to an out-of-court dispute settlement body, or to a court, and nothing here removes that right.

Immediate action. We may act without prior warning where content presents an immediate risk — a credible threat, a scam actively taking money from members, sexual content involving a minor, or an account that has clearly been taken over. We tell you afterwards, and the same right to contest applies.

Pending review for lightly-vetted accounts. Some account types — such as Content Creator pages — can be opened without the identity checks we require elsewhere on JobAvion. To keep the platform trustworthy, posts from these accounts that our automated screening flags are held as pending rather than published immediately, until a human moderator reviews them. You are notified either way — approval or rejection with a reason — and can edit a rejected post and resubmit it for review.

10. Reporting

If you see content or behaviour that breaks these guidelines, report it through the report button on the content itself, or email office@jobavion.com. To let us act quickly, tell us where the content is, what is wrong with it, and — if you are comfortable doing so — who you are, so we can come back to you.

We confirm receipt, we review every report, and we tell you what we decided and why. Reports are handled confidentially and we do not disclose who reported what to the person reported. Deliberately abusing the reporting system — mass-reporting a competitor, or filing reports you know to be false — is itself a breach of these guidelines and will be acted on.

If you believe content is unlawful rather than merely against these guidelines, say so explicitly in your report; those are handled under the notice-and-action procedure in Section 22 of the Terms of Use. You may write to us in Bulgarian or in English.

11. Updates

We may update these guidelines as the community grows. Continued use of JobAvion means you accept the current version. These guidelines complement our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
