FAQ
What is web accessibility?
accessibility is the inclusive practice ensuring that all users, regardless of personal characteristics or environmental factors, have access to any web page or service without losing content. This promotes equal opportunities.
Who does the lack of accessibility on a website affect?
The lack of accessibility affects everyone to varying degrees. However, certain users may be more impacted:
-
Users with permanent disabilities: auditory, visual, motor, speech, cognitive, and neurological.
-
Users with temporary disabilities: those temporarily unable to use one arm, for example.
-
Non-native language speakers.
-
Users affected by environmental factors, such as noise or light interference on the screen.
-
Users on small devices, like phones or PDAs.
-
Older individuals facing age-related difficulties. Accessibility ensures universal access to information for all users.
Are there web accessibility regulations requiring accessible portals?
In Public Administrations, a minimum of AA accessibility level is required by Royal Decree 1112/2018.
Similarly, private companies of special economic importance or those with at least 6 million euros in revenue or over 100 employees must comply with Law 56/2007, requiring at least AA accessibility level according to UNE 301549:2022.
Failure to comply with regulations may result in economic sanctions. While few cases have seen sanctions, there is an increasing trend of users using proposed processes to file such complaints.
How limiting is the design if we want an accessible website?
While design must adhere to UNE 301549:2022 criteria to avoid errors, colors, images, and interactive elements can still be used. Development must ensure proper tagging, allowing all users, including those using assistive technologies and those with disabilities, to access content seamlessly across devices, whether desktops, tablets, or mobiles.
What is the AA level of Accessibility for a website?
The WCAG 2.1 standard, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), outlines guidelines for web accessibility. It comprises four fundamental principles: perceivability, operability, understandability, and robustness. Three levels determine a website's accessibility level. AA level involves eliminating significant accessibility barriers compared to the basic A level. It includes features like text alternatives for non-text content, subtitles for live audio, adaptability to different formats, and keyboard accessibility.
Public Administrations are required to achieve at least this level, according to current legislation.
Accessibility and web usability, how do they differ?
Accessibility and web usability share a common goal: to ensure optimal user use of web pages. However, there are differences.
While usability seeks to improve the user experience when navigating the web, accessibility aims to guarantee universal user access to the web. Despite being distinct, there is a clear correlation between the two concepts. A web design accessible to all users must be usable. Conversely, good accessibility also benefits usability. A user-friendly webpage designed for easy access forces usability experts to make extra efforts to design interfaces for seamless navigation. Therefore, it's crucial to work on both concepts when designing a website to offer a better user experience, resulting in increased visits and conversion rates.
