Accessibility Statement

Last updated: October 2026

Our Commitment

News Radar is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people of all abilities. We strive to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA so that everyone — including people who use assistive technologies — can use our platform fully and independently.

Measures We Take

  • A "Skip to main content" link at the start of every page.
  • Semantic HTML with labelled form fields, descriptive link text, and underlined links inside running text.
  • Text colours chosen for sufficient contrast on our dark background (automated checks against WCAG 2.1 AA colour-contrast rules).
  • Visible keyboard focus on interactive elements and status messages announced to assistive technologies where we show them.
  • Layouts that adapt to small screens and zoom.

Conformance Status

News Radar aims to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA and is partially conformant. Last assessment: November 2026, using automated testing (axe-core, WCAG 2.0/2.1 A and AA rules) on our public pages (home, pricing, FAQ, legal pages, contact, blog, sign-in and registration), which reported no violations at the time. Automated tests find only part of all possible barriers. The signed-in areas (dashboard, events, watchlist, articles, account) and manual testing with screen readers have not yet been fully assessed.

Known Limitations

The interactive world map conveys event locations visually. The same events are available as text in the live ticker and on the Events page, which we recommend for screen reader users. Colour is used to distinguish categories; each event also carries a text label. If you need an accessible alternative for any content, please contact us and we will provide one.

Feedback & Contact

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of News Radar. If you experience any barriers, please let us know so we can address them promptly.

Enforcement Procedure

If you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact the relevant national equality body or ombudsman in your country for further assistance.
