Wolf Theiss - Leading Lawyers in CEE&SEE Accessibility Statement
ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT
* www.wolftheiss.com
* 20 April 2024
COMPLIANCE STATUS
We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to
anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the
widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability. To fulfill
this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web
Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA
level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people
with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us
ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with
motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more. This
website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as
possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons
with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and
design it to their personal needs. Additionally, the website utilizes an
AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility
level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its
functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for
keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments. If you’ve found a
malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You
can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
SCREEN-READER AND KEYBOARD NAVIGATION
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet
Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to
ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend,
and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters
your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile
so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website
covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console
screenshots of code examples:
1. Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the
website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even
when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with
meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide
accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons,
search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs;
element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others.
Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and
provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based
description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not
described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image,
using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on
screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1
keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements
to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.These
adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS
and NVDA.
2. Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the
website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the
website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the
website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow
keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key,
navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill
them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will
find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by
clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with
the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving
the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the
focus drift outside of it.Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus),
“H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to
specific elements.
DISABILITY PROFILES SUPPORTED IN OUR WEBSITE
* Epilepsy Safe Mode: this profile enables people with epilepsy to use the
website safely by eliminating the risk of seizures that result from flashing
or blinking animations and risky color combinations.
* Visually Impaired Mode: this mode adjusts the website for the convenience of
users with visual impairments such as Degrading Eyesight, Tunnel Vision,
Cataract, Glaucoma, and others.
* Cognitive Disability Mode: this mode provides different assistive options to
help users with cognitive impairments such as Dyslexia, Autism, CVA, and
others, to focus on the essential elements of the website more easily.
* ADHD Friendly Mode: this mode helps users with ADHD and Neurodevelopmental
disorders to read, browse, and focus on the main website elements more easily
while significantly reducing distractions.
* Blindness Mode: this mode configures the website to be compatible with
screen-readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. A screen-reader
is software for blind users that is installed on a computer and smartphone,
and websites must be compatible with it.
* Keyboard Navigation Profile (Motor-Impaired): this profile enables
motor-impaired persons to operate the website using the keyboard Tab,
Shift+Tab, and the Enter keys. Users can also use shortcuts such as “M”
(menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to
jump to specific elements.
ADDITIONAL UI, DESIGN, AND READABILITY ADJUSTMENTS
1. Font adjustments – users, can increase and decrease its size, change its
family (type), adjust the spacing, alignment, line height, and more.
2. Color adjustments – users can select various color contrast profiles such as
light, dark, inverted, and monochrome. Additionally, users can swap color
schemes of titles, texts, and backgrounds, with over 7 different coloring
options.
3. Animations – epileptic users can stop all running animations with the click
of a button. Animations controlled by the interface include videos, GIFs,
and CSS flashing transitions.
4. Content highlighting – users can choose to emphasize important elements such
as links and titles. They can also choose to highlight focused or hovered
elements only.
5. Audio muting – users with hearing devices may experience headaches or other
issues due to automatic audio playing. This option lets users mute the
entire website instantly.
6. Cognitive disorders – we utilize a search engine that is linked to Wikipedia
and Wiktionary, allowing people with cognitive disorders to decipher
meanings of phrases, initials, slang, and others.
7. Additional functions – we provide users the option to change cursor color
and size, use a printing mode, enable a virtual keyboard, and many other
functions.
BROWSER AND ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY COMPATIBILITY
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as
possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few
limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to
support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share
including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft
Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.
NOTES, COMMENTS, AND FEEDBACK
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their
needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are
in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological
solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our
accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and
developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal
level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any
