AccessibilityAccessibility

darceon.it is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, level AA, which are the basis of the European standard EN 301 549. “Partially” because of the limits listed below: almost all of them have an alternative on the site.

Today the site does not sell products or services: this statement is voluntary and follows the template of the European Accessibility Act (EU Directive 2019/882, implemented in Italy by Legislative Decree 82/2022).

• The whole site works with a keyboard, with focus always visible; at the top of every page there is “Skip to content”.
• Menus, dropdowns and the profile menu open with Enter or the arrow keys and close with Esc.
• Forms have visible labels, say what is missing next to the field and announce errors to screen readers; there is no time limit to fill them in.
• Images and animated scenes have alternative text; the animations that follow the scroll are described in words.
• With “reduce motion” on in the operating system the animations stop: scenes, titles and the 3D T-shirt become still images.
• The automatic rotation of the 3D T-shirt stops with the pause button; the T-shirt video has its own pause button.
• The court maps work with a keyboard: with the map focused, the arrows move it and + and - change the zoom; every court is a link reachable with Tab. The same courts are also in a written list below the map. In Suggest a court the pin can also be placed without a mouse, with “Pin in the centre”.
• The videos have no audio: nothing to subtitle.
• Texts and controls meet minimum contrast; pages read down to 320 px wide without sideways scrolling.

• 3D T-shirt (Drop 001, 360° view): it only turns by dragging with the mouse or a finger, not with a keyboard. With a keyboard, the details open with the “Take a closer look” buttons; the same views (front, back, print, fabric) are in the gallery, with alternative text.
• Anti-bot check (sign-up, sign-in, password recovery): it is a Cloudflare service. Usually it is invisible; if the box appears, its accessibility depends on Cloudflare. If you cannot get past it, write to the contacts below.
• Court plans (Parco Braccini in line drawing): they are drawings; place, courts and coordinates are also written in the page text. The interactive map images do not have alternative text for every street: the courts they show are listed on the page.

Self-assessment of 6 October 2026 on the production version of the site: automated check with axe-core (WCAG 2.0 and 2.1, levels A and AA) on all pages, on computer and phone (from 320 px wide), also with “reduce motion”; keyboard check page by page (focus order, visible focus, menus and forms).

There has not yet been a test with a real screen reader (NVDA, VoiceOver) nor an external audit.
