Accessibility statement

We target level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, version 2.2, which is the level adopted by the European standard applicable to digital services. This document says where we actually stand, including what does not conform.

An accessibility statement announcing full conformance without listing a single defect has not been tested. We prefer a partial and accurate statement to a complete and false one — the same rule as everywhere else on this site.

Partial conformance. The foundations hold across the public site; specific points remain non-conformant and are listed below with their consequence for the user.

What holds on every public page

• A single level-one heading per page and a heading hierarchy with no skipped level, which makes heading navigation usable with a screen reader.
• A skip link at the top of the page, leading straight to the main content.
• Text contrast meeting level AA in both themes, light and dark, including on secondary labels.
• Visible focus on every interactive element, not removed by styling: keyboard navigation stays legible everywhere.
• No content reachable only on hover: whatever appears on hover is also reachable by keyboard.
• Wide tables scroll inside their own container; the page itself never scrolls horizontally.
• Decorative icons are hidden from assistive technology; buttons without text carry an accessible label.
• Motion is disabled when the system signals a reduced-motion preference.
• The page language is declared and genuinely changes between the French and English versions.

The following points are identified and tracked. We publish them before fixing them, because someone affected needs to know what to expect today, not next quarter.

• Manual keyboard verification of every public journey: navigation, tab order, focus return, exiting collapsible components.
• Contrast verification on both themes from the design system’s colour variables rather than page by page: a conformant token makes everything that uses it conformant.
• Review of semantic structure: heading levels, lists, tables with headers, landmarks.
• No automatic remediation tool is installed. Accessibility overlays generally degrade the experience of people already using assistive technology, and hide defects instead of fixing them.

If a page prevents you from completing an action, describe the barrier: the page address, what you were trying to do, and the hardware or software you use. A precise report is worth more than a generic audit.

If our answer does not satisfy you, you can refer the matter to the competent digital accessibility authority in your country. That right is open independently of our internal procedure.
