We’re fostering a community dedicated to reshaping how the world collaborates. Our global network includes writers, designers, producers, videographers, business owners, and professionals from countless industries who turn to Gigred daily to bring their visions to life. We draw inspiration from every member of our community, valuing their unique perspectives, beliefs, and ideas—they are the driving force behind Gigred’s vibrancy.
To ensure a respectful, inclusive, and safe environment for all, we’ve established community standards that act as a guiding framework for behaviour on our platform. These standards outline what is acceptable within the Gigred community and marketplace, whether in direct interactions or online communication. While not tied to specific laws, they shape our platform policies, reflecting our values, expectations, and social norms. Grounded in our core principles—respect, safety, acceptance, support, and open-mindedness—these standards embody the heart of our community.
Like our community, these standards will continue to grow, evolve, and adapt over time. To provide clarity, we’ve included examples of unacceptable activities within our community standards. However, these examples are not exhaustive and should be viewed as guidelines rather than a comprehensive list.
We encourage our community to utilize our reporting tools whenever they encounter unacceptable behaviour. Our goal is to provide the best possible experience for all members, and we ask for your cooperation in respecting and adhering to these guidelines.
