Website Accessibility

The website is designed to be accessible to all visitors through various adaptation options, while also ensuring the most positive user experience possible. Accessibility has been arranged based on a self-assessment and in accordance with the Accessibility of Products and Services for Persons with Disabilities Act (ZDPSI, Official Gazette of the Republic of Slovenia, No. 14/23), which entered into force on 28 June 2025.

Level of accessibility

The website is written in HTML5 and uses CSS3 style sheets for website design. The jQuery JavaScript library is used for interactions and certain functionalities. The operation and appearance of the website have been tested on all popular older and newer browsers, as well as on various devices and operating systems.

The website is designed to be accessible and user-friendly for all website visitors. It has been developed in accordance with the AA level guidelines for web content accessibility under the WCAG 2.1 standard (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1).

For compatibility with assistive technologies and accessibility tools such as screen readers, the website follows the WAI-ARIA specification guidelines (Web Accessibility Initiative – Accessible Rich Internet Applications). Descriptions and attributes with additional information for dedicated applications or readers are therefore added to the HTML code of the website. Examples include alternative texts for graphic elements, labels for input fields and buttons, etc.

Accessibility features

Part of the website includes a special tool that provides additional website accessibility features. It appears when clicking the accessibility icon in the bottom right corner.

Users are provided with:

• easier keyboard navigation,
• the option to use a larger mouse cursor in white or black,
• light and dark contrast,
• grayscale colour display,
• the use of a standard font more suitable for people with dyslexia,
• larger font size and bold font,
• highlighted links.

Visitors can also use keyboard shortcuts to make browsing the website easier:

Possible improvements

For normal operation, a better overall user experience and greater security, the website uses the JavaScript scripting language. Without appropriate browser support, navigation is more difficult, and the display and submission of web forms in pop-up windows do not work.

Many WCAG guidelines for improving website accessibility may be interpreted subjectively. Interpretations may also change over time.

The implementation of certain missing features is not economically justified and will be considered during the next website redesign.
