Accessibility Statement
This Accessibility Statement outlines the commitment of Worldys News to provide a digital experience that is usable, readable, and accessible to the widest possible audience, including individuals with disabilities, in accordance with international accessibility standards.
1. Accessibility Standards
Worldys News aims to align with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA and comparable global accessibility frameworks. Our objectives include:
- Readable text with sufficient contrast
- Keyboard navigability without requiring a mouse
- Logical heading hierarchy for assistive devices
- Descriptive link text and alternative text for images
- Content structure compatible with screen readers
2. Ongoing Accessibility Efforts
Accessibility is an active process. As the Site evolves, new pages and features are reviewed for compatibility with assistive technologies. Corrective improvements may be deployed progressively without prior announcement.
3. Known Limitations
While we strive for full accessibility, certain third-party embeds (e.g., maps, videos, social media iframes) may not fully conform to accessibility guidelines due to external platform control. When possible, alternative descriptive context is provided.
4. Requesting Assistance or Reporting an Issue
If you experience a barrier accessing content or require an alternative format, contact our accessibility liaison at:
Please include the page URL, the issue encountered, and the assistive technology used (if relevant) to help us diagnose and address the problem.
5. Non-Discrimination Commitment
Worldys News does not discriminate on the basis of disability in the provision of information, participation in digital services, or editorial submission processes. All users are entitled to equal access to published content.
6. Updates to This Statement
