SOLGREEN Accessibility Statement

Plain English: We want everyone to be able to use solgreen.ee — including people who use screen readers, can't use a mouse, have low vision, or otherwise rely on assistive technology. This page explains the standard we aim for, where we currently stand, what's still in progress, and how to get help if something doesn't work.

Last updated: 2026-05-07 Effective date: 2026-05-07

1. Our Commitment

SOLGREEN OÜ ("SOLGREEN", "we") is committed to making solgreen.ee (the "Site") accessible to people with disabilities. Accessibility is treated as a quality attribute of our work, not a checkbox.

We aim for the Site to partially conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). "Partially conforms" means that some parts of the content do not yet fully conform to the accessibility standard. Our roadmap to full conformance is set out in Section 4.

Note for clients: SOLGREEN builds digital products for B2B and B2C clients. Where a deliverable is in scope of the European Accessibility Act (Directive (EU) 2019/882, applies from 28 June 2025), accessibility is a contract requirement, not an aspiration. Our client-deliverable accessibility posture is described in Section 11.

2. Standards We Reference

Standard Reason
WCAG 2.2 Level AA Global benchmark; referenced by US ADA case law, EU Web Accessibility Directive, EAA, and most other jurisdictions
EN 301 549 V3.2.1+ EU harmonized standard for ICT accessibility; the substantive technical requirements of the EAA
European Accessibility Act (Directive (EU) 2019/882) Applies from 28 June 2025 to a defined set of private B2C services and products. Affects products SOLGREEN builds for clients.
Estonian Public Information Act § 33² Web accessibility obligations for public-sector websites (relevant to public-sector client engagements).
Section 508 of the U.S. Rehabilitation Act (revised) U.S. federal procurement context
AODA (Ontario, Canada) Where SOLGREEN serves Ontario clients

3. Current Conformance Status

Plain English: What works, what we know is partial, and what isn't yet covered. Updated after every audit.

3.1 Passing

  • HTML lang attribute set on every page
  • Responsive layout works at 320 px width and at 200% zoom
  • Focus states visible on interactive elements
  • No content flashes more than three times per second
  • Reduced-motion preference honored via prefers-reduced-motion

3.2 Partial / Known Issues

  • Images: Some marketing images may be missing descriptive alt text or explicit alt="" for decorative images. Refresh planned in the next content cycle.
  • Headings: Some sections may use heading levels for visual emphasis rather than document hierarchy. Conversion to semantic headings in progress.
  • Forms: Some form fields may use placeholder-only labels. Conversion to persistent labels in progress.
  • Color contrast: Some sections of the marketing palette may fall below the 4.5:1 ratio for body text. Palette revision planned.
  • Skip-to-content link: To be implemented site-wide.

3.3 Not Yet Covered

  • Video content: We do not currently host video on the marketing site. Any future video will ship with captions and transcripts.
  • Third-party content: Cookie consent UI and any embedded third-party widget may not fully conform until vendor updates land.

3.4 Last Audit

  • Last automated audit:
  • Last manual / assistive-technology audit:
  • Auditor:

4. Roadmap to Full Conformance

Quarter Target
2026-Q2 Run automated audits (axe DevTools + WAVE + Lighthouse) on every public template; resolve all critical findings
2026-Q2 Add skip-to-content link site-wide; resolve color-contrast palette issues; ship persistent visible focus indicators
2026-Q3 Manual screen-reader sweep (NVDA + VoiceOver + TalkBack)
2026-Q3 Engage a third-party accessibility audit firm; obtain a VPAT / Accessibility Conformance Report
2026-Q4 Update this statement to reflect new audit results; aim for "fully conforms" if supported by audit findings
Ongoing Accessibility regression testing in CI for design-system changes

5. How We Test

Plain English: A mix of automated tools, manual checks, and assistive-technology testing.

  • Automated: axe DevTools, WAVE, Lighthouse Accessibility (run pre-merge in CI for design-system PRs)
  • Keyboard-only: Manual tab-through of every interactive element
  • Screen readers: NVDA (Windows), VoiceOver (macOS / iOS), TalkBack (Android), JAWS (Windows)
  • Browsers: Latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge
  • Zoom and reflow: Tested at 200% zoom and 320 CSS-pixel width
  • Reduced motion: Honored via prefers-reduced-motion

Browser + Assistive Technology Compatibility

Assistive technology Browser Compatibility
NVDA Firefox Supported
NVDA Chrome Supported
JAWS Chrome Supported
VoiceOver (macOS) Safari Supported
VoiceOver (iOS) Safari Supported
TalkBack (Android) Chrome Supported
Dragon NaturallySpeaking Chrome Best-effort
Switch Control / Voice Access Latest browsers Best-effort

6. Feedback and Help

Plain English: If something doesn't work for you, tell us. We'll respond fast.

7. Enforcement and Complaints

If you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact:

  • Estonia (EAA / public-sector accessibility): Tarbijakaitse ja Tehnilise Järelevalve Amet (ttja.ee)
  • EU Web Accessibility Directive / EAA: Your national enforcement body in the relevant EU member state
  • United States (ADA Title III): U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division
  • United Kingdom: Equality and Human Rights Commission (equalityhumanrights.com)

8. About This Statement

  • Date prepared: 2026-05-07
  • Method: Self-assessment combined with automated tools (axe / WAVE / Lighthouse). External third-party audit planned for 2026-Q3.
  • Review cadence: At least annually, and after any material redesign or content reorganization.
  • Format: Available in HTML on this page; available in plain text on request. Estonian translation at /ligipääsetavus .

9. Continuous Improvement Commitments

  • Accessibility checks are part of design-system pull-request review
  • New components ship with documented keyboard interaction patterns
  • Accessibility training is included in onboarding for design and engineering staff
  • Vendor and tool selection considers accessibility (relevant to client work)

10. AI-Generated Content and Accessibility

Plain English: Where we use AI tools to help build content, we still apply human review for accessibility before publication. AI-generated images get descriptive alt text. AI-generated transcripts get human review.

Where SOLGREEN uses AI tools (for example, generating draft content, image alternatives, or transcripts), the resulting output is reviewed by a human for accessibility before being shipped on the Site or in client deliverables. AI-generated images are paired with descriptive alt text we have written or reviewed. AI transcripts of audio/video are human-reviewed before being marked as captions or transcripts.

11. Client Deliverables and the EAA

Plain English: When we build sites and products for clients whose products fall under the European Accessibility Act, accessibility is a contract requirement, not optional. Section 11 explains how we handle that in our SOWs.

Where a client engages SOLGREEN to build a digital product or service that is in scope of the European Accessibility Act (e.g., consumer-facing e-commerce, banking, transport, e-books), the relevant Statement of Work will:

  • Identify the applicable accessibility standard (typically WCAG 2.2 AA aligned with EN 301 549)
  • Define an acceptance criterion that includes an automated audit pass (axe / WAVE / Lighthouse) plus a documented manual sweep
  • Allocate ownership of ongoing accessibility maintenance
  • Document accessibility risks and trade-offs explicitly

For non-EAA-scoped client work, we still recommend WCAG 2.2 AA as the target standard and will say so in the SOW.
