Our Commitment

Berchevelle is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards.

Last Updated: March 2026


Standards

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA and the requirements of the European Accessibility Act (EAA), which references the harmonised standard EN 301 549.


Measures

We take the following measures to ensure accessibility:

  • Accessibility is considered in our design and development processes
  • We use semantic HTML and ARIA attributes to support assistive technologies
  • All forms include properly associated labels and error descriptions
  • Dynamic content updates are announced to screen readers
  • Keyboard navigation is supported throughout the website
  • Focus indicators are visible on all interactive elements
  • Images include descriptive alternative text
  • Colour contrast meets or exceeds WCAG 2.2 AA requirements
  • We perform automated accessibility testing as part of our development workflow

Conformance Status

Berchevelle is partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 Level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content may not fully conform to the accessibility standard.

Known Limitations

  • Some third-party content (payment processing interface) may not be fully accessible as it is provided by an external vendor
  • PDF documents may not be fully accessible; alternative formats are available on request
