Accessibility<\/h1><\/div><\/div>\n\n

The statement was last updated on 27 October 2026.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

This website is run by SPIDER at Stockholm university. We want as many people as possible to be able to use it, and this document describes how spidercenter.org complies with the accessibility regulations, any known accessibility issues, and how you can report issues so that we can fix them.<\/p>\n

Reporting accessibility problems with this website<\/h3>\n

We are constantly striving to improve the accessibility of our websites. If you encounter any issues not described on this page, or if you believe we are not complying with legal requirements, please contact us at accessibility@spidercenter.org and let us know about the problem.<\/p>\n

Enforcement procedure<\/h3>\n

The Agency for Digital Government, Digg, is responsible for enforcing the web accessibility regulations. If you experience accessibility issues on our website, you can\u00a0submit a complaint to Digg<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

You can also submit a complaint to Digg<\/a><\/span> if you think that our assessment of what constitutes a disproportionate burden should be reviewed, if you think that our accessibility statement is inadequate, or it you think that your request for excluded content in an accessible format has not been handled correctly.<\/p>\n

How accessible is the website?<\/h3>\n

We have not yet completed a full accessibility evaluation of this website. A preliminary review found that the site does not meet all the criteria of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, level AA. The issues identified so far are listed below. More issues would likely be found in a full evaluation.<\/p>\n

The last assessment was made on 23 October 2026.<\/p>\n

Screen reader and keyboard use<\/h4>\n

Navigation submenus: Submenus in the main navigation can\u2019t be reached with a screen reader. (WCAG 2.1.1, 4.1.2)<\/p>\n

Keyboard navigation: Most links, buttons and other interactive elements don\u2019t show a visible outline or highlight when you move to them with the keyboard. This makes it hard to tell where you are on the page. (WCAG 2.4.7)<\/p>\n

Carousels: Image and content carousels are not accessible to screen reader users. (WCAG 2.2.2, 4.1.2)<\/p>\n

Buttons without labels: Some buttons have no text or accessible name, so screen readers can\u2019t announce what they do. (WCAG 4.1.2)<\/p>\n

Missing alternative text: Some images have no text alternative, or their alt text doesn\u2019t describe the image. (WCAG 1.1.1)<\/p>\n

Structure and forms<\/h4>\n

Heading structure: Some pages skip heading levels, for example going from a level 2 heading straight to a level 4. This makes pages harder to navigate with assistive technology. (WCAG 1.3.1)<\/p>\n

Form labels: Some form fields have no label, so it can be unclear what information goes in them. (WCAG 1.3.1, 3.3.2)<\/p>\n

Visual presentation and mobile use<\/h4>\n

Colour contrast: Some text doesn\u2019t have enough contrast against its background, which makes it hard to read. (WCAG 1.4.3)<\/p>\n

Delayed menu items: On some pages, menu items fade in or load slowly. This can make the menu harder to use and confusing for some users.<\/p>\n

Mobile menu: The mobile menu can\u2019t be scrolled, so some menu items can\u2019t be reached on smaller screens. (WCAG 1.4.10)<\/p>\n

Disproportionate burden<\/h3>\n

SPIDER and Stockholm university invokes an exemption for disproportionate burden in accordance with \u00a7 12 in the accessibility regulations for the content described below.<\/p>\n

Stockholm University does not have the resources or organisational capacity to carry out the following:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Adapting maps for single-finger navigation. This would require us to make more extensive technical adaptations to embedded maps than we are currently able to undertake.<\/li>\n
  • Content retrieved via third-party integrations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
