Accessibility
Improved access for everyone
Accessibility means access to information with no limitations placed on deficiency, disability or handicap. Many people arrive at the information on our pages from very different contexts to ours, perhaps with problems of hearing, vision or mobility. They may experience reading or comprehension difficulties. Maybe they cannot use a keyboard or a mouse. Maybe they have a text-only reader, a small screen or a slow connection, etc. Accessibility does not only concern those with a disability, instead it improves access to the website in general.
With this in mind, we have drawn up the following accessibility guidelines:
Compliance with the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) rules of the WAI (Web Accessibility Initiative) protocol, at least to AA level and part of AAA (text-only version). These rules have world-wide effect and are officially recognised as an internet standard by the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium).
Verification of compliance with the above guidelines by means of the Web Accessibility Test (TAW). This is a tool promoted by the Spanish Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs in accordance with the provisions of the Information Society and E-Commerce Services Act.
Of course, we are aware that the accessibility of this portal can be improved and we are working towards this. We invite you to help us in this task with your suggestions.
Text size
In order to make it as easy as possible to read the texts comfortably, we offer the possibility of changing the font size. Use your browser settings to select larger or smaller font sizes. The selected font size will be remembered on all other pages visited and may be changed whenever required.
