This is a judgement call; many guidelines are intentionally vague and cannot be tested automatically. We have reviewed all the guidelines and believe that all these pages are in compliance.

All pages on this website use structured semantic markup. H1 tags are used for page titles, H2 tags for main titles, H3 tags for subtitles. For example, on this page, JAWS users can skip to the next section within the accessibility statement by pressing ALT+INSERT+3.

Links

Many links have title attributes which describe the link in greater detail, unless the text of the link already fully describes the target (such as the headline of an article).

Links are written to make sense out of context.

Images

All content images used in this website include descriptive ALT attributes. Purely decorative graphics include null ALT attributes.

Complex images include LONGDESC attributes or inline descriptions to explain the significance of each image to non-visual readers.

Visual Design

This website uses cascading stylesheets for visual layout.

This website uses only relative font sizes, compatible with the user-specified 'text size' option in visual browsers.

If your browser or browsing device does not support stylesheets at all, the content of each page is still readable.
