Accessibility Statement

The IMPACT project is committed to ensuring that this website is accessible to as many people as possible, regardless of ability or technology. We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA and to the European standard EN 301 549.

1. Measures we take

• Semantic HTML structure with logical headings and landmark regions.
• Full keyboard navigation with a clearly visible focus indicator.
• Text alternatives and ARIA labels for meaningful images; decorative and scientific visuals are marked as decorative so assistive technologies can skip them.
• Respect for the prefers-reduced-motion setting: animations are reduced or removed for users who request less motion.
• Responsive layout that supports zoom and reflow on small screens.
• Colour combinations chosen to support readable text contrast.

2. Conformance status

This website is designed to be partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. “Partially conformant” means that some parts of the content may not yet fully meet the standard. Assessment is based on our own internal review; a formal third-party audit has not yet been carried out.

3. Known limitations

• Some pages include animated scientific visualisations. These are decorative, are hidden from assistive technologies, and convey no information that is not also available as text.
• This website links to external sites (for example partner and institutional websites) whose accessibility is outside our control.

4. Feedback and contact

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of this website. If you encounter a barrier, or need content in an alternative format, please contact us at impact@genoainstruments.com. We aim to respond within a reasonable time and to resolve issues where possible.

5. Preparation of this statement

This statement was prepared on the basis of a self-assessment carried out by the IMPACT project team. It will be reviewed and updated as the website evolves; the date at the top of this page indicates the latest revision.
