Inklusiivisen tanssin tuki ry is committed to providing a fully accessible website experience on kaaoscompany.fi website for all users of all abilities, including those who rely on assistive technologies like screen readers, screen enlargement software, and alternative keyboard input devices to navigate the web.
Ongoing Efforts to Ensure Accessibility
We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.2, level AA as our guiding principle for determining accessibility. These are internationally agreed-upon standards that cover a wide range of recommendations and best practices for making content usable. As we add new pages, events and functionality to our website, all designs, code, and content entry practices are checked against these standards.
Website accessibility is an ongoing process. We continually test content and features for WCAG 2.2 Level AA compliance and remediate any issues to ensure we meet these standards. Despite our efforts to make all pages and content accessible, some content may not have yet been fully adapted to the strictest accessibility standards. This may be a result of not having found or identified the most appropriate technological solution.
To comply with these standards, our website was tested by industry-standards tools such as Accessibility Checker, WAVE, NVDA and JAWS screenreaders, color contrast analyzers, keyboard-only testing, and page zoom at 200% and 400%.
Accessibility Features On Our Website
The following is a list of items we have included in our website to improve its accessibility:
- The design was created with accessibility in mind, using color combinations that ensure sufficient contrast between text and background.
- The content is organised into pages and sections that allow users of all abilities to easily and quickly find the information they need.
- Breadcrumb navigation is provided to help users understand their location within the website structure and easily navigate back to previous pages.
- The font was thoughtfully chosen for readability and clarity, avoiding ambiguous characters such as 1, l, I, 0, and O.
- Our website design is mobile-responsive and supports up to 200% and 400% zoom without loss of content or functionality.
- Images include descriptive alternative text when they convey meaningful information.
- A skip link has been incorporated to facilitate keyboard navigation, allowing users to bypass the menu and jump directly to the main content.
- The website declares a language in the HTML header: Finnish (Suomi) for kaaoscompany.fi and English for kaaoscompany.fi/en.
- ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) screen reader-only text is used when links or images require additional context to be understood.
- A text warning is provided when a link opens in a new tab or leads to an external site.
- All interactive elements (links, buttons, inputs) are accessible via the keyboard using the Tab key.
- Structural markup is used appropriately to indicate headings, lists, buttons, and forms.
Where We’re Improving
In our efforts to bring our website up to standard, we are targeting the following areas:
- We are adding text descriptions for all videos embedded on the website, to ensure they are accessible to users with visual and audio impairments.
This is part of our broader effort to make everyone’s experience on our website a welcoming and enjoyable one. Please note that while we make every effort to provide information accessible for all users, we cannot guarantee the accessibility of third party websites to which we may link.
