FAQ

Accessibility standards by region - frequently asked questions

Which accessibility standards and regulations does EqualWeb's Managed Compliance cover?
Managed Compliance certifies websites against the standards of every market you operate in: WCAG 2.2 (the globally recognized technical standard), the ADA and Section 508 in the United States, the AODA in Ontario, Canada, and the European Accessibility Act and EN 301549 in the European Union. EqualWeb's standards library documents 14 standards and regulations in total, with a plain-English guide for each.
How do laws like the ADA and the European Accessibility Act relate to WCAG?
Nearly every accessibility regulation points back to WCAG, the technical standard that specifies how to make digital content accessible. Laws such as the ADA, Section 508, the AODA, the EAA and EN 301549 set the legal obligation by region, while WCAG success criteria define how to meet it. EqualWeb's certified experts audit, remediate and monitor your site against the exact standards your markets require.
How do I know which accessibility standards apply to my website?
It depends on where you operate and who your customers are. US businesses generally face the ADA, US federal agencies and their vendors face Section 508, organizations in Ontario face the AODA, and companies selling into the EU face the European Accessibility Act and EN 301549. EqualWeb maps your site to every standard for your markets, and a certified specialist can walk you through which laws apply.
Does EqualWeb's Managed Compliance cover the European Accessibility Act?
Yes. The European Accessibility Act (EAA) and EN 301549, the EU's accessibility requirements standard for ICT, are both covered by Managed Compliance. Because EU regulation points back to WCAG, EqualWeb's certified experts audit and remediate your site against the relevant WCAG criteria, then issue the Accessibility Compliance Certificate and conformance report (VPAT) that document your conformance for the EU market.
