The International Centre for Numerical Methods in Engineering has committed to making its website accessible in accordance with Royal Decree 1112/2018 of 7 September on the accessibility of websites and mobile applications in the public sector.

This accessibility statement applies to the website  http://www.cimne.com

This website is partially compliant with RD 1112/2018 due to the exceptions and non-compliance of the aspects indicated below.

The content below is not accessible for the following reasons:

1. Lack of compliance with RD 1112/2018 of September 7

• • Some pages may have the following unmet criteria related to standard EN 301 549 “Accessibility requirements for ICT products and services” which is, in turn, an adaptation of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) (criteria specified in parentheses):
  • There are occasional errors in the marking of images [requirement number 9.1.1.1 Non-text content of EN 301549 v2.1.2 – 2018].
  • There may be occasional editing errors on some web pages, both in HTML content and in final documents published after the effective date of Royal Decree 1112/2018, of September 7. Specifically, there may be errors in documents containing complex graphics or tables.
  • There are specific errors in the use of some semantic markup tags, such as incorrect nesting of elements, paragraph marking, lack of hierarchical structure without breaks in headings, absence of description and structuring in tables [requirement number 9.1.3.1 Information and relationships of EN 301549 v2.1.2 – 2018].
  • Issues with Javascript-dependent events and certain navigation elements not accessible via keyboard or screen reader [requirement number 9.2.1.1 Keyboard of EN 301549 v2.1.2 – 2018].
  • There are form fields that request information about the user and the purpose of the entry is not being identified [requirement number 9.1.3.5 Identification of the purpose of the entry of UNE-EN 301549:2019].
  • There are form fields or buttons where the visible text that acts as their label is not part of their accessible name [requirement number 9.2.5.3 Inclusion of the label in the name of UNE-EN 301549:2019].
  • There are status messages not identified by software so that they cannot be transmitted to users without the need to receive focus [requirement number 9.4.1.3 Status messages of UNE-EN 301549:2019]
  • There may be occasional editing errors on some web pages.
  • On English pages, there may be some Spanish text whose language change is not correctly labeled, as this situation is temporary until it is finally translated automatically or manually.
  • All Priority 1 and Priority 2 requirements are periodically reviewed with an accessibility analysis using various semi-automated tools, user agents, and aids.

2. Disproportionate burden

• • Not applicable.

3. The content does not fall within the scope of applicable legislation

• • There may be office files in PDF or other formats published before September 20, 2018, that do not fully meet all accessibility requirements. However, efforts have been made to ensure that most of them do.
  • Pre-recorded multimedia content on a temporary basis or published before the entry into force of the Royal Decree.

This statement was prepared on September 16, 2020.

The method used to prepare the declaration was a self-assessment conducted by the agency itself with the help of the SiteImprove.com validator.
