The Seignosse Tourist Office is committed to making the seignosse-tourisme.com website accessible to all users, regardless of their equipment, browsing methods or any disabilities, in accordance with Article 47 of French Law No. 2005-102 of 11 February 2005 on equal rights and opportunities for people with disabilities.
This accessibility statement applies to the seignosse-tourisme.com website, effective from 20 July 2026.
This page sets out the website’s current accessibility status, ongoing measures and how to contact us should you encounter any difficulties.
Compliance status:
The Seignosse Tourist Office website is declared non-compliant with the General Framework for Improving Accessibility (RGAA Version 4.1).
To date:
No comprehensive compliance audit, carried out in accordance with the official RGAA methodology, has yet been conducted.
In the absence of such an audit, we are unable to publish a precise compliance rate. In the interests of transparency, the website is therefore considered non-compliant pending this audit. An active programme to improve accessibility is underway.
What is digital accessibility?
On seignosse-tourisme.com, our aim is simple: to ensure that all visitors can access the site’s content, including those who use assistive technology. In practical terms, an accessible website is one that allows users to:
- Navigate using a text-to-speech reader or a Braille display, used by people who are blind or partially sighted.
- Customise the display to suit your needs: enlarge text, adjust colours, improve contrast… to make reading comfortable. Explore the site without a mouse, using only the keyboard or a touchscreen.
Digital accessibility is not just a ‘nice-to-have’: it is a commitment.
Approach and planned actions:
A structured approach is being implemented to improve the website’s accessibility:
- The Tourist Office team is gradually reviewing all content (text, images, links, PDF documents, etc.) to ensure it is accessible.
A technical and functional accessibility audit will be carried out by a specialist service provider (on a representative sample of pages and features). - Implementation of a prioritised action plan, based on the audit results, identifying: technical corrections to be made (code, templates, modules), improvements to usability and navigation, and best practices to be adopted for new content.
- Ongoing collaboration with our web agency to implement the necessary fixes.
- Capacity building for in-house teams (copywriting, development, visuals) to progressively produce accessible content.
Potentially inaccessible content
Pending the full audit, certain elements of the website may present accessibility issues for some users. By way of example, these may include:
- Images without suitable alternative text.
- PDF documents or other downloadable files (brochures, guides, forms) that are not structured for screen readers.
- Insufficient colour contrast on certain blocks of text and buttons.
- Keyboard navigation that is sometimes limited, particularly on certain menus, carousels or interactive components.
- Link or button labels that are not very clear out of context (e.g. ‘Find out more’, ‘Read more’).
- The heading hierarchy is sometimes inconsistent, making it difficult for users of assistive technologies to navigate by headings.
These issues will be analysed and rectified as and when necessary.
