Accessibility compliance status

We believe that the internet should be accessible to everyone, and we are dedicated to making our website usable by the widest possible audience, regardless of individual abilities. In this accessibility statement we explain how the accessibility widget can be used to give user the best website experience.

We believe that the internet should be accessible to everyone, and we are dedicated to making our website usable by the widest possible audience, regardless of individual abilities.

To meet this goal, we follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at the AA level, as established by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines provide a roadmap for making web content accessible to individuals with a range of disabilities, ensuring that our site is usable by people who are blind, have motor or cognitive impairments, or other disabilities.

Accessibility Features

Our website employs various technologies designed to ensure maximum accessibility at all times. These include an accessibility interface that allows users to personalize the user interface (UI) based on their specific needs.

In addition, we use an AI-based application that continuously optimizes the website’s accessibility. This tool modifies the website’s HTML code, making it more compatible with screen readers and keyboard navigation for users with motor impairments.

If you need to contact the website owner, please use the accessibility feedback form at the bottom of this page.

Screen Reader and Keyboard Navigation

Our website integrates ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes and other behavioral adjustments to ensure that blind users relying on screen readers can fully interact with the site. As soon as a screen-reader user accesses the website, they are prompted to enable the Screen-Reader Profile for an enhanced browsing experience. Here’s how we address key screen-reader needs:

• Screen Reader Optimization:
  We implement a comprehensive process to ensure that all website components are accessible and compliant, even during updates. This includes providing screen readers with essential information via ARIA attributes, such as labeling form elements and buttons, describing icons (e.g., social media, search, shopping cart), and validating form inputs.Additionally, the background system scans and adds ALT tags to images, giving meaningful descriptions based on image recognition. For images with embedded text, we use OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to extract and present the text. Users can activate screen reader adjustments at any time by pressing Alt+1. The website also makes automatic announcements to turn on Screen-Reader Mode when needed.These adjustments are compatible with popular screen readers like JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack.
• Keyboard Navigation Optimization:
  Our background processes enhance keyboard navigation by adjusting the website’s HTML and adding JavaScript-based behaviors. This allows users to navigate using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdown menus with arrow keys, close them with Esc, and activate buttons and links using the Enter key. Radio and checkbox elements can also be navigated using arrow keys and selected with the Spacebar or Enter.A content-skip menu is available at any time via the Alt+2 keyboard shortcut, and it is the first element accessible when navigating the site with the keyboard. For pop-ups, the focus is automatically moved to ensure the keyboard focus stays within them.Keyboard users can also use shortcuts such as “M” for menus, “H” for headings, “F” for forms, “B” for buttons, and “G” for graphics.
