Known limitations for epirotic.com:

 

We are aware of the following areas where accessibility improvements are planned as part of our ongoing audit and remediation efforts over the next two months:

 

  • Various pages throughout the site
    Some buttons and links do not currently have discernible text, which may hinder both screen reader users and overall readability. 
    Additionally, certain ARIA attributes used on the site do not conform to standard values, which may affect how assistive technologies interpret the content.
    A number of elements on the site do not meet the recommended minimum color contrast ratios, potentially making them difficult to read for users with visual impairments.

 

  • Homepage
    In addition to the accessibility issues identified on other pages, which are also present here, this page contains video content without closed captions.  

     

We acknowledge the existing accessibility issues and are currently undertaking a full site-wide accessibility audit to evaluate them and proceed with the needed fixes and alterations. While this process is underway, the UserWay accessibility tool has been implemented to provide users with customizable navigation and interface options to enhance usability.

 

Assessment approach

The accessibility of the epirotic.com website was assessed through a self-evaluation conducted by DOPE STUDIO, the agency responsible for its design and development. This assessment was carried out in close collaboration with the Epirotic Bottling Company team, using a combination of automated tools and manual checks to identify accessibility barriers. A full accessibility audit is currently in progress to ensure alignment with WCAG 2.2 Level AA standards; once it has been completed, this statement will be updated.
