Accessibility Statement

At Design Republic, we are committed to ensuring accessibility for all our customers, including people with disabilities. We strive to make our website and services inclusive, user-friendly, and compliant with applicable accessibility standards.

This site uses various technologies designed to be as accessible as possible at all times. We use an accessibility interface that allows people with specific disabilities to adapt the site's user interface to their personal needs. The accessibility of the Design Republic website is based on the following technologies that enable it to function with the particular combination of browser and any assistive technologies or plugins installed on your computer:

  • HTML

  • WAI-ARIA

  • CSS

  • JavaScript

Accessibility Standards

Our site is designed to comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. These guidelines are globally recognized as a benchmark for web accessibility and focus on creating content that is perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust:

  • Perceivable - Information and user interface components must be presented to users in ways they can perceive

  • Operable - User interface components and navigation must be operable

  • Understandable - Information and the operation of the user interface must be understandable

  • Robust - Content must be robust enough to be interpreted reliably by a wide range of user agents, including assistive technologies

We are constantly working to improve the accessibility of our site and our services, with the conviction that it is our collective moral responsibility to ensure a smooth, accessible, and barrier-free user experience for people with disabilities.

Inaccessible Content

Despite our efforts to ensure the accessibility of our website, we are aware of some limitations, some known, others beyond our control because they are due to third-party apps. Below is a description of these limitations:

  • Image alternative text — Some decorative and promotional images may not have fully descriptive alternative text. We are working to progressively correct this limitation.
  • Keyboard navigation — Some interactive elements, particularly the navigation menu with multi-level submenus, may present limitations in keyboard navigation or with assistive technologies.
  • Repeated elements in the DOM — Some animated components (e.g., scrolling announcement bar) generate duplicate content in the source code that could be redundantly read by screen readers.
  • Third-party widgets and apps — Some site functionalities are managed by external applications (wishlist, cart, payment systems) whose level of accessibility compliance is beyond our direct control.
  • Color contrast — Some text elements on light backgrounds may not fully meet the minimum contrast requirements of WCAG 2.1 Level AA (4.5:1 ratio for normal text).
