Accessibility statement

What is digital accessibility?

An accessible website is a site that allows all internet users to access its content with ease, including people who have a disability and use specialized software or hardware. For example, an accessible website allows users to:

Browse using synthesized speech (text-to-speech) or Braille displays (predominantly used by blind or visually impaired internet users).
Customize the website’s display according to individual needs (large print, modification of colors and contrasts).
Browse without a mouse, using the keyboard or a touch screen.
Etc.

To achieve this, the website must comply with strict standards for its design and updates.

Features offered by your browser

In addition to the help available directly on facil-iti.fr, the website has been designed in such a way as to allow your browser to take full advantage of its own features and functions.

Enlarging the font size

On all the pages of the facil-iti.fr site, you have the option to increase the size of the text.
If you are on a PC, use the Ctrl + “+” key combination (the “plus” key) to increase the font size. The Ctrl + “–” key combination (the “minus” key) reduces the size of the characters. Repeatedly pressing on these keys lets you increase or decrease the size of the characters bit by bit. Also note that the Ctrl + 0 key combination (the number “zero”) lets you revert to the default text size.
Mac users, all you have to do is replace the Ctrl key by the Cmd key in the combinations given above to perform the same actions.

Keyboard browsing

The facil-iti.fr website has been designed in such a way as to allow keyboard browsing on all the pages. In most cases, all you need to do is tap the Tab key on your keyboard to switch from one clickable item to another clickable item on the page, in reading order. Conversely, if you want to go backwards, in the reverse direction of reading, use the Shift + Tab key combination.

Videos

The facil-iti.fr website offers a number of videos. A particular effort has been made to ensure these videos are accessible to as many people as possible.

The transcript is accessible via a link provided immediately below each video.

Subtitles

Each video that requires it is accompanied by synchronized subtitles. These subtitles can be freely activated or deactivated using a button available directly in the video player.
Subtitles allow people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or quite simply people who cannot hear sound (no speakers, noisy environment, etc.) to still be able to access the audio information conveyed in the video. They are also often useful for people for whom French is not their native language, who are generally grateful to have both sound and textual support to help them understand.

Audio descriptions

Each video that requires it is accompanied by an audio description track. This audio description track can be freely activated or deactivated using a button available directly in the video player.
Audio description is an audio track which, launched at the same time as the video, vocalizes information conveyed only through the image. Like, for example, text displayed on the screen, situations that can only be understood when one sees the images, etc. Audio description is useful for people who are blind or hard of hearing. It can also be a source of comfort for people who want to play the video without keeping their eyes on it.

As a result, each organization is required to take the necessary measures to provide access, within a reasonable time frame, to the information and features sought by the disabled person, whether the content is subject to an exemption or not. The possibility of requesting accessible alternative content must be offered to the user on the help page via an accessible means of contact (email address or contact form).

Pages with one or more exemptions

The “Site map” page does not exist, it is compensated by a site map present in the footer.
