This website is run by the EIT Manufacturing ASBL. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website, and this document describes how eitmanufacturing.eu complies with the accessibility regulations, any known accessibility issues and how you can report problems so that we can fix them.

How accessible is eitmanufacturing.eu?
We are aware that some parts of this website aren’t fully accessible. See the section on non-accessible content below for more information.

How we tested this website
We perform continuous internal and external testing of eitmanufacturing.eu. The last assessment was made on 26 October 2021.

Technical information about the accessibility of this website
This website is mainly compliant with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 level AA. Non-compliant content is listed below.

General issues
PDF documents are not fully accessible to screen reader software
Live video streams do not have captions
Video widgets (YouTube/Vimeo) do not have captions and are not fully accessible when navigating with a keyboard.

If you need content from this website that is not accessible to you, but is not within the scope of the accessibility regulations as described above, please contact us by e-mail at eitm@eitmanufacturing.eu and tell us:

Reporting accessibility problems with this website
We’re always looking to improve the accessibility of this website. If you find any problems that aren’t listed on this page or if we’re not meeting the requirements of the accessibility regulations, please contact us by e-mail at eitm@eitmanufacturing.eu to report issues and let us know about the problem.

Disproportionate burden
EIT Manufacturing ASBL invokes an exemption for disproportionate burden in accordance with § 12 in the accessibility regulations for the content described below.

We use YouTube and Vimeo widgets to embed videos and we are aware that it is partially non-compliant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Our assessment is that it would be unreasonably burdensome to find an equivalent, and fully accessible, replacement for these widgets.

Enforcement procedure
You have contacted the person responsible for the website to notify them of a lack of accessibility that prevents you from accessing any of the portal content or services, and you have not received a satisfactory response.
