Guidelines

This website has been designed and built following the WCAG 2.1 guidelines provided by the W3C international WAI standard, in accordance with the WCAG 2.1 – level AA accessibility requirements.
Furthermore, the Technical Verification checkpoints defined by Law No. 4 of January 9, 2004, “Provisions to support access to information technology tools for the disabled,” and its recent update in the Ministerial Decree of March 20, 2013, “Annex A.

The principles that guided the creation of this website were defined based on the W3C WAI guidelines, including the following main points:

• only technologies specified by W3C guidelines were used;
• for every audiovisual content, alternative content has been provided that, when presented to the user, performs essentially the same function or achieves the same purpose as the original content;
• no reliance was placed solely on colors; in this way, text and graphics are understandable even when viewed without color;
• markup and style sheets have been used appropriately;
• the layout was designed to ensure independence from various devices (linked to responsive mode);
• clear and consistent navigation mechanisms have been designed and provided to increase the likelihood that a person can find what they are looking for on the portal;
• tables have been included with the correct markers so that browsers and various user agents can transform them according to need.

All pages of the site have been tested and passed the HTML5 validation carried out with the W3C Validator, and their compliance with the accessibility requirements indicated by Italian law was also verified using the ARC Toolkit service.
