Inaccessible Content
Non-compliance with the annex
- Not all documents available for download are accessible digitally. We are currently working on converting WORD and PDF files into digitally accessible versions.
- Due to the large number of pages on the website, it may happen that alternative texts have not been added to the photographs or graphics.
- It may happen that elements clicked on to start a link in a new window/tab of your web browser do not inform about it. We are currently working on this.
- The films made available do not have audio transcriptions or extended subtitles (for persons with hearing impairment), as most of them were published before the Digital Accessibility Act entered into force.
- It may happen that in archival entries in the category Events, headlines are used non-hierarchically, in headline markers (h1, h2, etc.) a large amount of text is inserted, or texts alternative to photographs in photo galleries are repeated.
