Compliance Guides and Legal

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are internationally recognised standards developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to ensure that digital content is accessible to people with disabilities.

WCAG serves as the foundation for digital accessibility laws and regulations across the globe, including the European Accessibility Act (EAA) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in the U.S.

Whether in Europe or not, businesses offering digital services to European consumers will be impacted. Understanding the EAA legislation and preparing for its requirements is essential not only for compliance but also for maintaining competitiveness and reputation in an increasingly digitally accessible market.

WCAG compliance is both an ethical duty and legal requirement under UK law, mandating accessibility for public sector bodies and applicable private organisations.

Canada's digital accessibility legislation guarantees equitable online access to information, services, and resources for persons with disabilities.

Following on from our previous blog article about the American Disability Act (ADA), we explain here about Section 508.
