This website is run by Culture & Business Scotland.
The long-term goal and intention of this policy is to state clear accessibility principles that the Culture & Business Scotland website should follow. Culture & Business Scotland is in the process of ensuring its pages comply with the AA standard of the W3C recommended version of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).
Culture & Business Scotland acknowledges that this is an anticipatory and continuing work in progress and, in order to ensure no user is disadvantaged while this work is carried out, Culture & Business Scotland intends to respond to all requests for assistance with accessibility by either altering the necessary content as soon as possible, or, if requested, by providing the information in an alternative format at no cost within a reasonable timeframe. It is the responsibility of Culture & Business Scotland to provide these alternative formats.
Appropriate channels of communication are available to allow visitors to request alternative formats and to give feedback about any accessibility issues. Culture & Business Scotland will make reasonable adjustments to ensure specific individual needs that cannot be addressed by mainstreamed adjustments are met.
