1. Accessibility Status
We are aware that parts of this website are not fully accessible. See the section below for more information.
2. Compliance Status
This website is partially compliant with the European Accessibility Act (EAA), due to the non-compliances listed below. The site is currently undergoing accessibility improvements based on a detailed audit performed in late 2024.
3. Non-accessible Content
- Despite our efforts, some parts of the site are not fully accessible, including but not limited to:
- Some PDFs published prior to 2025 may not be accessible to screen reader users.
- Certain images lack meaningful alternative (alt) text or have insufficient descriptions.
- Links without discernible or consistent text can cause confusion for assistive technologies.
- Form fields may lack proper labels.
- Keyboard navigation is sometimes hindered due to missing skip links, unclear focus indicators, or illogical tab order.
- Some content areas do not meet the minimum color contrast requirements for readability.
We are actively addressing these issues and working toward full compliance with WCAG 2.2 Level AA, which serves as our target standard.
4. Accessibility Evaluation Method
An external accessibility audit was conducted by SQLI Nordics on November 28, 2024. The evaluation included both automated testing (using tools like Axe, Sitebulb and Lighthouse) and manual reviews, covering representative pages and user interactions. The audit followed the WCAG 2.2 guidelines and targeted AA conformance.
