Accessibility
This is a voluntary statement about this website. It is written to say what was measured and what was not, because a conformance claim that nobody measured is worse than having none.
The standard and level
This site is built to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.2 level AA. The target applies to the whole site, in all three languages, rather than to the English pages alone. A page that is only accessible in one language is not accessible.
The rest of the NightHall product, the webshop, the checkout, the order pages and the door client, is built to WCAG 2.1 level AA. The organizer dashboard carries the same target. Those are separate surfaces with their own statements.
What is checked on every build
The build refuses to publish while any of these fails.
- Every page exists in all three languages, with reciprocal language links and a self canonical.
- Every page carries exactly one first-level heading and a main landmark.
- Every internal link resolves to a page that exists, so no link is a dead end.
- Every page loads nothing from another origin, so nothing on it depends on a third party being reachable.
- Every page passes the generated check for colour contrast on both backgrounds it paints text on.
- A keyboard user can reach every interactive element, and the focus indicator is visible.
- A skip link takes a keyboard user past the fixed header to the main content.
- Every page reflows at 320 CSS pixels wide without horizontal scrolling.
- Motion is reduced when the reader's system asks for reduced motion.
What has not been done
No independent audit has run. No test with a screen reader by somebody who uses one has run. No testing with assistive technology beyond the automated checks has run at all.
An automated check catches a missing name, a contrast ratio that can be computed, and a control a keyboard cannot reach. It does not catch a label that reads wrongly aloud, or a flow that confuses somebody using a screen reader. That third case is the one that matters most and the one most easily skipped, and no check on this page speaks to it.
For that reason this page says the site is built to level AA and does not claim to be conformant with it. A partial conformance with a named list of known failures is defensible; a confident full conformance that fails on the first screen reader is not.
Known limitations
- The three languages are translated by people, not by a controlled terminology system for this site. A Dutch or German page may use a term the English page does not.
- Legal pages are long. They are structured with headings and can be navigated by heading, but they are still long documents.
- The tables on the privacy, cookies and sub-processor pages scroll horizontally on a narrow screen rather than reflowing to stacked rows.
Feedback
If you cannot use part of this site, write to info@litenova.solutions and say which page and what happened. NightHall answers within five working days and will say what can be done and by when.
If you are not satisfied with the answer, you can complain to the supervisory authority in your own country. In the Netherlands that is the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens for a data question. A complaint about a public website's accessibility goes to the body that enforces accessibility in your country.
