Accessibility Statement
Last updated: October 22, 2026
A product’s manual, passport and support should be readable by everyone who owns it, including people with low vision, color blindness, dyslexia or limited reading time, and people who use a screen reader. This statement covers the pages Veribl hosts for brands behind a product’s QR code: product pages, Digital Product Passports, manuals and guides, warranty and registration, and help centers.
1. The standard we build to
We design and test these pages against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA, the level that the European standard EN 301 549 and the European Accessibility Act (Directive (EU) 2019/882) refer to.
2. Reading settings on every page
Every product page has an accessibility button. The settings are remembered on the visitor’s device and apply across the brand’s pages:
- Text size from 87% up to 200%, with the page reflowing to fit
- Easy-reading font: Atkinson Hyperlegible, designed by the Braille Institute for readers with low vision
- Text spacing: more space between lines, words and letters, following WCAG 1.4.12
- High contrast for text, borders and controls
- Reduced motion to turn off animations
- Read aloud: the page is read out in its language with the device’s own voice
- 24 EU languages, chosen automatically from the visitor’s browser and changeable at any time
3. Manuals as readable pages
Paper and PDF manuals have fixed, often small print. Manuals that brands publish with Veribl are web pages of real text, so they can be enlarged, read in high contrast, read aloud by a screen reader or the read-aloud setting, and translated. Brands can also attach their original PDF files for download.
4. How we test
We test the pages with axe-core, the open-source accessibility engine behind Google Lighthouse, on phone and desktop sizes and with the reading settings turned on. We fix what it finds before release. The most recent full check was on October 22, 2026; issues it found, such as low-contrast labels and unnamed icon buttons, have been fixed.
5. Content brands add
Brands write their own product content, images and documents. We recommend publishing manuals as pages rather than only as PDF files, so every reader gets the settings above.
6. Feedback and contact
If something on a page is hard to use, tell us at [email protected] with the page address and what happened, and we will fix it. You can also contact the brand whose product page you were using.
