Accessibility Policy

GNTO

The Greek National Tourism Organisation recognises how important it is to provide a website accessible to all users, regardless of their physical, cognitive, or technological limitations. Accessibility is not a feature; it is a fundamental right.

We are continuously working to enhance the usability of our website by implementing modern accessibility standards, improving navigation logic, and ensuring that content remains perceivable, operable, understandable and robust.

Design Principles

Our design approach follows the principles of 'Design for All'. This ensures inclusivity across devices, screen readers, assistive technologies and keyboard navigation systems.

  • High contrast colour combinations to improve readability.
  • Clear and legible typography using accessible font sizes.
  • Keyboard navigable menus and skip-to-content shortcuts.
  • Descriptive alternative text for all meaningful images.
  • Consistent heading hierarchy for screen reader compatibility.

Assistive Technology Compatibility

Our website has been tested with leading screen readers including NVDA, JAWS and VoiceOver. We also conduct periodic accessibility audits to ensure continued compliance.

User Control

  • Users can resize text without breaking layout.
  • Colour themes can be adjusted for improved contrast.
  • All core functionality remains available without JavaScript.
