Our Commitment
We strive to ensure that our website is accessible and inclusive for all users, regardless of their abilities or disabilities, by following the best practices and standards as defined by the WCAG 2.2 (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.2) AA level and we follow the regulations of the BFSG, which implements the European Accessibility Act (EAA). The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.2) AA level covers a wide range of recommendations for making Web content more accessible. Our goal is to provide a website that is perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust for every visitor.
Measures to Support Accessibility
To achieve digital accessibility, Mimi has taken the following measures:
- Integrated accessibility into our internal design and development workflows.
- Conducted regular accessibility audits using automated tools and manual testing.
- Trained our team on accessibility best practices.
Current Status of Accessibility
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Mimi.io is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.
