Accessibility statement

We want stipruskartu.lt to be easy to use for everyone, including people with disabilities. We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines WCAG 2.1, level AA, and the European standard EN 301 549.

This statement applies to the renewed stipruskartu.lt website, launched on 14 November 2026, in all three languages (Lithuanian, English, Ukrainian): the home page, “Warm Ukraine”, “Children of Freedom”, “Culture”, “News”, the donation section, the privacy policy and this page.

The website is partially compliant with WCAG 2.1 AA. Below we list what has been done and which limitations remain.

Accessibility menu in the top bar: text size (100%, 115%, 130%), high contrast, underlined links and stop motion. Your settings are saved in your browser and apply on every page.

Language selection – a drop-down menu that clearly marks the current language; the content of each language is marked with its language (lang) so that screen readers pronounce it correctly.

Keyboard use: a “Skip to content” link, visible focus, menus that open and close with the keyboard (Escape returns focus to the button), and buttons with clear names for screen readers.

Photos have text descriptions (alt) in all three languages; purely decorative elements (e.g. the emblem next to the name) are hidden from screen readers.

Motion: the kit-building animation is decorative – the same information is given as text. Animations are not shown if “reduce motion” is enabled in your browser or “Stop motion” is selected in the accessibility menu.

Responsive design: the site has been checked on screens 320–2560 px wide (phones, tablets, laptops and large monitors) – content does not overflow the screen and the main controls are at least 44 × 44 px.

Third-party content (Facebook posts) is loaded only with your consent, and the cookie banner can be used with a keyboard.

On phones a donate button (“I want to donate”) is always visible at the bottom of the screen – it takes you straight to the donation page and can be reached with a screen reader.

Logos (“Sušildyk Ukrainą” and others) have text names, and text on coloured backgrounds is chosen to give sufficient contrast.

The Facebook feed is shown through Meta's embed, whose accessibility we do not control. The same information is available directly on our Facebook page.

Content on external sites (media, PayPal, the bank, the tax authority) may not meet all requirements. Videos on external platforms may lack subtitles.

All languages and sections are on one page, so a screen reader may not announce a change of language or section straight away – in that case use the “Skip to content” link.

The website has not been assessed by independent experts, and we have not yet tested it with screen reader users.

Accessibility menu settings are saved only in the browser and on the device where you chose them.

Write to mes@stipruskartu.lt with the page and the problem. We aim to reply within 10 working days and to provide the information in a way that suits you (e.g. by email or phone).

We prepared this statement on 14 November 2026, after launching the renewed website, based on our own assessment (keyboard, contrast, alternative text, screen sizes). We will review it at least once a year and after every major change to the site.
