Validity and accessibility

W3C is an acronym used to refer to the World Wide Web Consortium, a non-profit organization that sets standards for web-related technologies.

Its mission is to define common standards in the field of Internet development, particularly in HTML code. The presence of the W3C logo guarantees that the website has a sufficient level of accessibility and complies with good programming practices for its design.

WAI is the acronym for Web Accessibility Initiative, an initiative launched by the W3C to promote website accessibility for users with disabilities. Its goal is to enable people with disabilities (motor, visual, etc.) to navigate and move around the site without losing information.

In 2005, the obligation for public websites to be accessible was legally established by Article 47 of the Law of February 11 (No. 2005-102) on "equal rights and opportunities, participation, and citizenship for people with disabilities," which states: "The online public communication services of the State, local authorities, and public institutions dependent on them must be accessible to persons with disabilities." The Ministry of the Budget has written a document, called RGAA, which is supposed to dictate all the rules of good conduct for making a website accessible.

N124 Communication meets all government requirements by providing sites with AA level accessibility, with the exception of pages using Google Maps. In order to continuously improve the user experience, dynamic maps can be integrated into the site, even though their code is not RGAA compatible.
