COMPLIANCE STATUS<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n
\n

We believe that the internet should be accessible to everyone and we actively work to ensure that our website can be used by as many people as possible - regardless of disability. To achieve this, we aim to follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 level AA, developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), which describe how web content can be made more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities. By following them as much as possible, we want to ensure that the website is accessible to people who are blind, visually impaired, have motor difficulties, cognitive disabilities, etc.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n

\n

The website uses several technologies to maintain a high level of accessibility. We use an interface that allows people with specific needs to customize the website's user interface (UI) according to their preferences. In addition, we use a technical solution that runs in the background and continuously optimizes the accessibility of the website. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n

\n

This solution improves the HTML code of the website and adapts the functionality and behavior for screen readers (for blind users) and keyboard navigation (for users with motor difficulties).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n

SCREEN READER AND KEYBOARD NAVIGATION<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n
\n

Our website uses Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA) attributes along with various behavioral adaptations to enable users with screen readers to read, understand and use the website's features. When a user with a screen reader enters the website, they are prompted to activate a specific mode in order to navigate and use the website effectively.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n

\n

Here are some of the key demands we support:<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n

\n

1. <\/strong>OPTIMIZATION FOR SCREEN READERS<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n
\n

We use a process that analyzes website components from top to bottom to maintain compliance even as the site is updated. In the process, we provide screen readers with meaningful information via ARIA attributes. This can include correct labels for form fields, descriptions of clickable icons (social media, search, shopping cart, etc.), guidance on form validation, and roles for elements such as buttons, menus, and modal dialogs (pop-ups).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n

\n

The process also scans website images and, if necessary, creates descriptive ALT (alternative text) texts using object recognition. It can also extract text embedded in the image using optical character recognition (OCR) technology.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n

\n

To enable optimization for screen readers, users can press Alt + 1<\/strong>. Users with screen readers also receive automatic notifications to turn on optimization when they enter the site. The customizations are compatible with common screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver and TalkBack.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n

\n

2. <\/strong>OPTMIZATION FOR KEYBOARD NAVIGATION<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n
\n

The process also adjusts the HTML of the website and adds functionality via JavaScript to make the website fully usable with keyboards. This includes, among other things:<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n
