Accessibility Statement

IACOB MIHAI-ALBERTO PFA (Romanian fiscal code (CUI) 54802933), which operates Deutsch-Landia, is committed to making the platform accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. This statement covers deutsch-landia.ro and deutsch-landia.com, in conformance with the European Accessibility Act (Directive (EU) 2019/882) and the WCAG 2.2 Level AA standard.

Partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 Level AA.

The features below are conformant. Some components — listed in section 4 — are still in progress.

• Skip-to-content link on every page for keyboard users
• Semantic HTML5 structure (header, nav, main, footer) + ARIA landmarks
• Text contrast minimum 4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text (WCAG 1.4.3)
• Dark mode for reduced eye strain
• 100% keyboard support — every feature reachable without a mouse
• Screen reader compatible (tested with NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver)
• ARIA labels on icon-only buttons ("edit", "delete", etc.)
• Read-aloud — text-to-speech for German words / phrases (Web Speech API)
• Content scalable to 200% without loss of function (WCAG 1.4.4)
• Honors `prefers-reduced-motion` for users with vestibular sensitivity
• Clear labels on all form fields (auth, profile, contact)
• Descriptive error messages — not color-only (red border + text)

Accessibility relies on the following browser technologies: HTML5, WAI-ARIA, CSS3, JavaScript ES2020+. Works correctly on the last 2 major versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.

The following items do not yet meet WCAG 2.2 AA:

• A few Lottie animations on the Rewards page do not yet honor `prefers-reduced-motion` — in progress
• Multiplayer tutorials ("Word Duel", "Grammar Duel") have modal dialogs lacking consistent focus trap — fix planned Q2 2026
• Some CEFR badges on legacy admin pages use 3.8:1 contrast (below the 4.5:1 threshold) — restyling under way
• Stripe payment flow (external iframe) is Stripe-conformant, but not screen-reader-tested with international AT

We are actively addressing these. Progress is tracked publicly at our quarterly audits.

If you encounter accessibility barriers using Deutsch-Landia, please contact us. We reply within 5 business days and prioritise accessibility fixes.
