Introduction

This accessibility statement details VitVio’s approach to ensuring that our websites and applications are accessible to all individuals, including those with disabilities, and providing an experience for everyone which is perceivable, operable, understandable and robust.

We will regularly review and update our accessibility efforts to ensure we are making progress toward full compliance with recognized accessibility standards.

This statement is designed for demonstrating full or partial compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines WCAG 2.2 level AA, based on guidance from the NHS Standard Service 5.

Our Commitment to Accessibility

VitVio is dedicated to ensuring that our websites and applications, including vitvio.com and the VitVio Platform — are accessible to all individuals, including those with disabilities. We are committed to providing an inclusive online experience for everyone which is perceivable, operable, understandable and robust. We strive to make our websites as accessible as possible and to comply with recognized accessibility standards.

What we comply with

We have taken several steps to enhance the accessibility of our websites to ensure that they meet or exceed the standards set forth by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) including WCAG 2.2 level AA. Here are some of the measures we have implemented:

  • Colour Contrast: We maintain sufficient colour contrast for text and interactive elements to be readable.
  • Readable Text (Fonts): We use readable fonts and text sizes.
  • Navigation and Consistency: We ensure a consistent and logical navigation structure throughout our websites.
  • Headings and Semantic HTML: We use proper heading structure (h1, h2, h3, etc.) and semantic HTML elements. (Not applicable in our use case)
  • Time-Based Media: We ensure that time-based media (e.g., animations, slideshows) can be paused and controlled by users. (Not applicable in our use case)
  • Consistent Language: We maintain consistent language and avoid jargon or acronyms that may be unfamiliar.
  • Forms and Errors: We provide clear instructions for form completion and error messages.
  • Content Reordering: We ensure that content is presented in a meaningful sequence when styles or scripts are disabled. (Not applicable in our use case)

What we are working on

We recognize that there are areas where our websites can be improved to further enhance accessibility:

  • Provide Text Alternatives: We include alt text for all non-text content like images and multimedia.
  • Readable Text (Text Sizes Adjustment): We allow users to adjust text size without loss of content or functionality.
  • Form Accessibility: We make all forms, including error messages, labels, and input fields, accessible.
  • Page Titles and Link Text: We use descriptive page titles and meaningful link text.
  • Responsive Design: We ensure that our websites are usable on various devices and screen sizes.
  • Keyboard Accessibility: We are actively working to ensure all website functions and content can be navigated and operated using a keyboard alone.
  • Multimedia Accessibility: We are actively working on providing captions and transcripts for audio and video content - all of our multimedia content has written content alternatives in the form of instructions or guidance.
