Why Digital Accessibility?
Starting June 28, 2025, the European Accessibility Act (EAA) will take effect. This means your website must meet strict accessibility standards. Don’t wait until the last minute. By taking action now, you can avoid hefty fines and make an important step toward inclusivity.
Other reasons to take action:
- If you do not adjust your website, you exclude 10%-15% of the population in the Netherlands.
- Digital accessibility is not a luxury, but a human right.
- Semi-automated WCAG checking for websites and PDFs.
- We offer assistance software for an inclusive digital future.
- Together we create a more inclusive digital world where everyone feels at home.
