Non-compliance with legal requirements

We will have all deficiencies corrected by 31 October 2025.

These issues may affect users who are blind or severely visually impaired and use screen readers:

Use without vision

These issues may affect users who are blind or severely visually impaired and use screen readers:

• The video player does not support subtitle reading
• Videos lack visual interpretation (audio descriptions) of visual elements relevant to the content.
• Explanations of technical terms in some publications are presented in tables without column headers, which can make them unnecessarily difficult to interpret with a screen reader.
• Words and phrases in other languages are read in Swedish by screen readers, making them hard to understand. We expect to fix this by 31 October 2025.

Use with impaired vision

These issues may affect users with moderate visual impairments who rely on zoom or magnification tools:

• The video player does not support subtitle reading.
• In some forms (e.g. "Search for Evidence Gaps"), certain fields lack visible labels, and only grey placeholder text is present, which has poor contrast and may be hard to read.  
• The website does not support dark theme preferences. We expect to resolve this by 31 October 2025.

Use with reduced mobility or motor skills

These issues may affect users who have difficulty using a mouse, touchscreen, or keyboard:

• Form fields do not suggest relevant options tailored to the field, making it harder for the browser to assist the user.
• The focus indicator disappears when a container in the cookie information dialogue gains focus. This will be corrected by 31 October 2025.

Use with impaired cognition

If you have difficulties with reading, writing, or understanding complex language, the following issues may hinder your experience:

• Form input fields do not communicate to the browser what type of information is expected. If you use assistive technologies that display icons for certain fields, these may not function properly.
• Some search fields lack a visible label. Instructions are only shown as placeholder text, which disappears when typing begins. This will be corrected by 31 October 2025.
• The website does not currently support dark theme preferences. We expect to resolve this by 31 October 2025.

Use with reduced colour vision

These issues may affect users with colour vision deficiencies:

• The website does not support dark theme preferences. We expect to resolve this by 31 October 2025.
