Accessibility statement

Kivita website is subject to the EU's accessibility directive, the aim of which is to ensure equality in a digitalised society and set uniform requirements for accessibility.

The Kivita website was launched on 7 December 2023. The site's current accessibility standard is WCAG 2.1, level AA. The requirements of the Directive have been taken into account in the development of the website, and the work continues. The information in this statement is based on self-assessment.

Kivita is committed to observing accessibility standards. The following measures are implemented in order to achieve this goal:

  • accessibility is part of our mission statement,
  • accessibility has been taken into account in our practices,
  • a member of staff has been appointed to be responsible for accessibility.

Kivita's objective is to maintain a website that is technically accessible and understandable in terms of its contents and that is clear and easy to use for all types of users.

The Kivita website largely meets the requirements for accessibility. The website requires further improvements, however, in the following areas:

  • video subtitles,
  • animation pause functions,
  • image descriptions (alt texts),
  • use of pdf files.

If you notice any deficiencies regarding the accessibility of the site, you can provide
feedback to: kivita-info@aalto.fi

We will respond to your feedback within two weeks, at the latest.  We are actively working to address the accessibility issues that have been identified.

This statement was created on 7 December 2023.
