## What Is Digital Accessibility?

  
Digital accessibility refers to a set of best practices—functional, visual, technical, and editorial—that ensure digital content (websites, mobile applications, PDFs, etc.) is usable by all, including people with disabilities.

- Customize the display (e.g., enlarge text, change fonts, adjust contrast, disable animations)
- Navigate with assistive technologies (e.g., screen readers, braille displays)
- Use the site without a mouse (via keyboard, switches, or touch screen)
- Access video/audio content through captions or transcripts
- And more

## Our Commitments

  
Veolia is committed to making its digital services—websites (internet, intranet, extranet), mobile apps, software, and public-facing digital infrastructure—accessible to everyone, in compliance with the [EU Web Accessibility Directive](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/FR/TXT/?uri=CELEX:32016L2102) and [WCAG 2.1 AA standards](https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/).
