Compliance status

What we have done
- A semantic structure with headings, landmarks and a “Skip to content” link at the top of every page.
- All functions can be used with a keyboard, with a visible focus indicator.
- Text alternatives for illustrations and photos, and language attributes for passages in another language.
- Text contrast checked with automated tools.
- Animations can be stopped with the “Stop animations” button. It is the first element on every page after “Skip to content” and appears when you press Tab. Your choice is remembered. The site also respects the device's reduced-motion setting.
- Videos play only when you press a button, never with automatic sound.
