1. Our aim
We want everyone to be able to use yoursite.gr: with a mouse, with a keyboard only, with a screen reader, with zoom or with the accessibility settings of their device.
We aim for level AA of the WCAG 2.2 guidelines. This corresponds to the European standard EN 301 549 and to the requirements of Directive (EU) 2019/882 on accessibility (European Accessibility Act) and the Greek law that transposes it.
This statement covers the yoursite.gr website in all its languages (Greek, English, German).
2. What we do
- Every page has one main title, headings in the right order, landmarks (header, menu, main content, footer) and a “Skip to content” link.
- Everything works with a keyboard, and the element in focus has a visible outline. Menus and dialogs close with Esc.
- Text and buttons have the contrast that level AA requires, in both the light and the dark theme.
- Icons that carry information have hidden text for screen readers, and the template photos have descriptions (alt text) in all three languages.
- Anything that moves can be stopped with one button, and the site follows your system’s “reduce motion” setting.
- Text grows with browser zoom, and pages adapt to screens from 320 pixels wide.
- Every page declares its language, so screen readers use the right pronunciation.
Before a change goes live, we check every page with the axe tool, in all three languages, in the light and dark theme and at widths from 320 to 1280 pixels. We also test the site in Safari (iPhone, iPad), Chrome and Firefox. No independent audit has been carried out yet.
3. Accessibility settings
With the “Accessibility settings” button (the symbol of a figure in a circle) at the top of every page, or from the footer, you can change the text size, the contrast, the spacing between lines, letters and words, link underlining, paused animations, the font (one that is easier to read with dyslexia), the cursor size and the decorative backgrounds.
These settings are extra help. They do not change the content of the page and do not replace the settings of your browser or system. They are stored only in your browser (localStorage). Pausing animations is the same setting as the pause button on the home page and is also kept in the ys_motion cookie, as the cookie policy explains.
4. Known limits
- Old browsers. The site works from Safari 12 (iOS 12), Chrome and Edge 79 and Firefox 78. In older versions not everything may work, and some settings may have no effect.
- Template thumbnails. The small pages in the templates and on the home page show what a site will look like. Their text is a sample and does not grow with the text size setting, so their proportions stay right. Browser zoom enlarges them as usual.
- Text size. The setting enlarges the text, not the headings, which are already large, and not the menu at the top, so that it fits on one line. The phone menu grows as usual.
- Dyslexia-friendly font. It is the system’s Verdana or Tahoma. On devices that do not have them, such as many Android phones, the plain system font is used.
- Large cursor. Available only on devices with a mouse.
5. Report a problem
If something on the site gets in your way or does not work with the assistive technology you use, write to [email protected]. It helps to include:
- the address of the page;
- what you were trying to do and what happened;
- your device, your browser and, if you use one, your screen reader or other assistive technology.
Every report is looked into and the reply comes by email. If the problem is confirmed, it is fixed on the site. If you are not satisfied with the reply, you can contact the competent market surveillance and consumer protection authorities.
6. Updates
This statement was written on 10 November 2026. We update it when something important changes on the site or in our checks.
