Date of issue: 2026-10-19
We believe that the internet should be accessible to everyone, and we actively work to make our website usable by as many people as possible, regardless of ability. To achieve this, we strive to comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA, developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how web content can be made more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities. By following them, we aim to ensure that the website is accessible to, among others, people who are blind, have low vision, have motor difficulties, or have cognitive disabilities.
The website uses several technologies to maintain a high level of accessibility. We use an interface that allows people with specific needs to adapt the website's user interface (UI) to their own preferences. In addition, a technical solution runs in the background and continuously optimizes the website's accessibility.
This solution improves the website's HTML code and adapts its functionality and behaviour for screen readers (for blind users) and keyboard navigation (for users with motor difficulties).

Screen readers and keyboard navigation
Our website uses ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes together with various behavioural adaptations so that people using screen readers can read, understand and use the website's features. When a screen-reader user visits the website, they are prompted to activate a dedicated mode to navigate and use the website effectively.
Here are some of the key requirements we support:
1. Screen-reader optimization
We use a process that analyses the website's components from top to bottom to maintain compliance as the website is updated. As part of this process, we provide screen readers with meaningful information through ARIA attributes. This may include appropriate labels for form fields, descriptions of clickable icons (such as social media, search and shopping cart icons), guidance for form validation, and roles for elements such as buttons, menus and modal dialogs (pop-up windows).
The process also scans the website's images and, when needed, creates descriptive ALT text (alternative text) using object recognition. It can also extract text embedded in images using OCR (optical character recognition).
Users can press Alt + 1 to activate screen-reader optimization. Screen-reader users also receive automatic prompts to turn on the optimization when they visit the website. The adaptations are compatible with common screen readers, including JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver and TalkBack.
2. Keyboard-navigation optimization
The process also adjusts the website's HTML and adds features through JavaScript so that the website can be used fully with a keyboard. This includes the ability to:
- Navigate using Tab and Shift + Tab.
- Operate drop-down menus with the arrow keys and close them with Esc.
- Activate buttons and links with Enter.
- Move between radio buttons and checkboxes with the arrow keys, and select them with Space or Enter.
People who need keyboard navigation can also access a menu to skip past content (“skip to content”), or use it as the first element when navigating by keyboard. When pop-up windows open, focus moves to them automatically so that it does not remain outside the dialog.
Users can also use shortcuts such as:
- M (menus)
- H (headings)
- F (forms)
- B (buttons)
- G (graphics/images)
Supported user profiles
Seizure-safe profile:
Reduces the risk of seizures by removing flashing/flickering animations and risky colour combinations.
Support for low vision:
Adapts the website for common visual impairments such as reduced vision, tunnel vision, cataracts, glaucoma and more.
Neurodivergence and focus support:
Reduces distractions and “noise” to make reading and focusing easier.
Reading and cognitive support:
Tools to support focus and understanding for people with, for example, autism, dyslexia or stroke (CVA).
Profile for blind users (screen reader):
Makes the website compatible with screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver and TalkBack.
Keyboard-navigation profile (motor skills):
Makes it easier to use the website with Tab/Shift + Tab and Enter, as well as the M, H, F, B and G shortcuts.
Additional UI, design and readability adaptations
- Fonts — Change size, typeface, spacing, alignment, line spacing and more.
- Colours — Choose a contrast mode, such as light, dark, inverted or monochrome. You can also change the colour schemes for headings, text and backgrounds using several options.
- Animations — Stop animations (including video, GIFs and CSS effects) to reduce risks for users sensitive to epileptic triggers.
- Content highlighting — Emphasize important elements such as links and headings, or highlight only elements that are focused or under the mouse pointer.
- Mute audio — Turn off all sound on the website immediately. This may help users of hearing aids that are affected by automatically playing sound.
- Cognitive support — A search function connected to Wikipedia and Wiktionary that can help explain terms, abbreviations, slang and more.
- More features — Including changing the colour and size of the cursor, print mode, a virtual keyboard and other assistive tools.
How accessible is the website?
We continuously work to improve the accessibility of the website. We are aware that some parts of the website may have accessibility shortcomings and may therefore be only partially compliant with accessibility legislation.
Content that is not accessible
Third-party components, such as embedded frames and third-party plugins: The website may contain components from third-party providers, for example chat functions and cookie management. In some cases, these may not be fully adapted for accessibility, which can affect the experience of users with disabilities. These components are managed by external providers and may, in some cases, be outside our direct control.
Links to PDF documents and other files: The website may have accessibility shortcomings in how users can access documents, as information about their format and access may be insufficient. Some of these documents may also not yet be fully accessible. We work continuously to identify issues and improve accessibility.
How we tested the website
We conduct regular accessibility tests using a tool and compile the results in a report.
Compatibility with assistive technologies and browsers
We aim to support as many browsers and assistive technologies as possible so that users can choose the tools that work best for them, with as few limitations as possible. We have therefore worked to support the major systems that together account for more than 95% of the market, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge. We also support screen readers such as JAWS and NVDA for both Windows and Mac users.
Comments, suggestions and feedback
Despite our efforts, some pages or parts of the website may not yet be fully accessible, may be undergoing improvement, or may not have an adequate technical solution available. We continuously improve accessibility by adding, updating and developing features, and by adopting new technologies as they evolve. For more information, visit our technical provider, Selma.
