**Accessibility Statement**

**Last updated:** 20/06/2026

**Commitment to Accessibility**

General Oceans is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all users, including people with disabilities. We continually work to improve the user experience for everyone and to apply relevant accessibility standards across our website.

Our goal is to make our digital content accessible and usable regardless of technology or ability.

**Measures We Take**

To support accessibility, General Oceans aims to:

- Design and develop web content in line with recognised accessibility best practices.
- Consider accessibility during website design, development, and content creation.
- Regularly review our website and identify areas for improvement.
- Provide alternative methods of access where accessibility barriers are identified.

**Accessibility Standards**

We are working towards conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA and the requirements of EN 301 549, the European standard for digital accessibility.

While we strive to achieve and maintain compliance, some areas of the website may not yet fully conform to these standards.

**Known Limitations**

We recognise that some content may not currently be fully accessible. Examples may include:

- Some older PDF documents or downloadable resources.
- Certain third-party content or embedded services.
- Occasional images that may not yet have fully descriptive alternative text.
- Some areas where keyboard navigation or screen reader compatibility could be improved.

We are actively reviewing these areas and prioritising improvements as part of our ongoing accessibility programme.

**Feedback and Contact Information**

We welcome feedback on the accessibility of our website.

If you experience difficulty accessing any content, require information in an alternative format, or wish to report an accessibility issue, please contact us:

We will make reasonable efforts to respond and provide the information you need.

**Compatibility**

The General Oceans website is designed to be compatible with modern browsers and assistive technologies, including commonly used screen readers and keyboard navigation tools.

**Ongoing Improvement**

Accessibility is an ongoing process. We regularly review our website and digital services to identify opportunities for improvement and to ensure a more inclusive experience for all users.

This statement will be reviewed and updated periodically to reflect improvements and changes to our website.
