What is digital accessibility?

An accessible website allows people with disabilities to access its content and functionality without difficulty.

For example, using an accessible site, you can:

  • Browse with speech synthesis and/or a refreshable Braille display (used mainly by blind and visually impaired people).
  • Customize the site’s display settings to suit your needs (increasing or reducing character size, changing colours, etc.).
  • Navigate without using the mouse (with the keyboard only, via a touch screen, voice or any other suitable device).

To do this, the site must comply with the standards in force at the time when it is produced and updated.
