We believe the internet should be accessible to everyone, and we actively work to ensure our website can be used by as many people as possible — regardless of ability. To achieve this, we strive to comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA, developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines describe how web content can be made more accessible to people with many different types of disabilities. By following them, we want to ensure that the website is accessible to, among others, people who are blind, have low vision, motor impairments, cognitive disabilities, and more.

The website uses several technologies to maintain a high level of accessibility. We use an interface that allows people with specific needs to customize the website’s user interface (UI) according to their own preferences. In addition, a technical solution runs in the background and continuously optimizes the website’s accessibility.

This solution improves the website’s HTML code and adapts its function and behavior for screen readers (for blind users) and keyboard navigation (for users with motor impairments).

Screen readers and keyboard navigation

Our website uses ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes together with various behavioral adaptations to allow users with screen readers to read, understand, and use the website’s features. When a user with a screen reader visits the website, a prompt is displayed to activate a special mode to be able to navigate and use the website effectively.

Here are some of the most important requirements we support:

1. Screen reader optimization

We use a process that analyzes the website’s components from top to bottom to maintain compliance even when the website is updated. In this process, we provide screen readers with meaningful information through ARIA attributes. This may include, for example, correct labels for form fields, descriptions of clickable icons (social media, search, shopping cart, etc.), guidance during form validation, and roles for elements such as buttons, menus, and modal dialogs (popup windows).

The process also scans the website’s images and, when necessary, creates descriptive ALT texts (alternative text) using object recognition. It can also extract text embedded in images using OCR (optical character recognition) technology.

To activate screen reader optimization, users can press Alt + 1. Users with screen readers also receive automatic notifications to turn on optimization when they enter the website. The adaptations are compatible with common screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack.

2. Keyboard navigation optimization

The process also adjusts the website’s HTML and adds functions via JavaScript so that the website can be used fully with a keyboard. This includes, among other things:

  • navigating with Tab and Shift + Tab
  • handling dropdown menus with arrow keys, closing with Esc
  • activating buttons and links with Enter
  • navigating between radio buttons and checkboxes with arrow keys, and selecting with the spacebar or Enter

Users who need keyboard navigation can also access a menu to skip past content (“skip to content”) or as the first element during keyboard navigation. If popup windows open, focus is automatically moved to them, so that focus does not end up outside the dialog.

Users can also use shortcuts such as:

  • M (menus)
  • H (headings)
  • F (forms)
  • B (buttons)
  • G (graphics/images)

Supported user profiles

  • Epilepsy safety profile:

    Reduces the risk of seizures by removing flashing/flickering animations and risky color combinations.

  • Visual impairment profile:

    Adapts the website for common visual impairments such as impaired vision, tunnel vision, cataracts, glaucoma, and more.

  • Cognitive disability profile:

    Assistive features to facilitate focus and understanding for people with, for example, autism, dyslexia, stroke (CVA), and more.

  • ADHD-friendly profile:

    Reduces distractions and “noise” to facilitate reading and focus.

  • Profile for blind users (screen reader):

    Makes the website compatible with screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack.

  • Keyboard navigation profile (motor skills):

    Makes it easier to use the website with Tab/Shift+Tab and Enter, as well as the shortcuts M, H, F, B, and G.

Additional adjustments for UI, design, and readability

  1. Fonts – change size, typeface, spacing, alignment, line spacing, and more.
  2. Colors – choose contrast modes such as light, dark, inverted, and monochrome. It is also possible to change color schemes for headings, text, and backgrounds with several options.
  3. Animations – stop animations (incl. video, GIFs, and CSS effects) to reduce risks for users sensitive to epilepsy.
  4. Content highlighting – emphasize important elements such as links and headings, or only highlight elements that are in focus/under the mouse pointer.
  5. Mute sound – mute all sound on the website immediately (can help users with hearing aids that are affected by sounds playing automatically).
  6. Support for cognitive difficulties – search function linked to Wikipedia and Wiktionary that can help explain terms, abbreviations, slang, etc.
  7. More features – including changing the cursor color and size, print mode, virtual keyboard, and more assistive tools.

How accessible is the website?

We work continuously to improve the accessibility of the website. We are aware that parts of the website may fall short in their accessibility and may therefore be partially compliant with the accessibility law.

Content that is not accessible

Non-organic components, such as embedded frame components and third-party plugins: The website may contain components from third-party providers, such as chat features and cookie management. These may in some cases lack full accessibility adaptation, which may affect the experience for users with disabilities. These components are managed by external providers and may in some cases be beyond our direct control.

Links to PDF documents and other files: The website may lack some accessibility regarding how users can access documents, as they may lack sufficient information about format and access. In some of these documents, the content may also not yet be fully accessibility-adapted. Specifically, this website contains shortcomings in examples.

We work continuously to identify problems and improve our accessibility.

How we tested the website

We conduct regular accessibility tests with a tool and compile the results in a report.

Compatibility with assistive tools and browsers

We strive to support as many browsers and assistive tools as possible so that users can choose the tools that suit them best, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked to support the largest systems, which together make up over 95% of the market, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera, and Microsoft Edge. We also support screen readers such as JAWS and NVDA for both Windows and Mac users.

Comments, feedback, and suggestions

Despite our efforts, there may be pages or parts of the website that are not yet fully accessible, that are being improved, or where a sufficient technical solution is lacking. We continuously improve accessibility by adding, updating, and developing features, and by adopting new technologies as technological development progresses.
