- Last modification of the content of the declaration: 2024-01-22

Anyone has the right to request the provision of accessibility to a digital website, mobile application or some element thereof. It is also possible to request that the information be made available by means of an alternative means of access, for example by reading a digitally inaccessible document, describing the content of a film without an audiodescription, etc.

The request should include the identity of the person making the request, an indication of which website or mobile application is being requested and the means of contact. If the requesting person indicates a need to receive information by means of an alternative means of access, he/she should also specify how the information is convenient for him/her. The public body should comply with the request without delay and no later than 7 days from the date of the request. If it is not possible to comply with this time limit, the public body shall inform the requester without delay when it will be possible to comply with the request, but the time limit shall not be longer than 2 months from the date of the request.

If digital accessibility cannot be provided, the public body may propose an alternative means of accessing the information. Where a public body refuses to comply with a request to provide accessibility or an alternative means of accessing the information, the requester may lodge a complaint about the provision of digital accessibility of a website, a mobile application or an element of a website or a mobile application. Once the above procedure has been exhausted, an application may also be made to the Commissioner for Human Rights (link below).

Information for users with disabilities

- Users who only use the keyboard can navigate the website freely using the Tab key.

- Standard keyboard shortcuts can be used on the website.

- Navigation is also visually impaired-friendly thanks to unique subpage titles and an orderly header function.

- Throughout the website, the so-called focus is enabled, which is the default marking of an active link or form field. The focus moves through all visible active elements of the page in a logical order - the TAB key.

- Links, including those to external sites, open in the same window.

- Text-to-background contrast - this ensures that the material embedded on the page is also readable by visually impaired people.

- We strive to write easy-to-understand text and to format it in a way that complies with accessibility rules.

- Photos and graphics on the site have alternative descriptions to make their content accessible to the visually impaired and to people who do not display graphics on, for example, mobile devices.

The website is equipped with mechanisms to facilitate viewing of content by visually impaired people who do not use assistive technology:

- changing the font size

- change of contrast

- the graphic design of the site is based on styles
