Accessibility Statement

Last updated: October 2026

BiddingBase aims to make its website and product usable for everyone, including assistive-technology users.

Scope

This statement covers biddingbase.com and the BiddingBase web application as of August 2026. It does not cover third-party integrations linked from the service.

Why this matters

Accessibility is a legal requirement under the Finnish Act on the Provision of Digital Services and the European Accessibility Act. It also reflects how we build software: clear structure, readable text, and keyboard support help every user, regardless of ability.

Standards we aim for

We target WCAG 2.2 AA. New features are reviewed against keyboard navigation, screen-reader semantics, and colour-contrast guidelines before release.

What we've done

  • Semantic landmarks, headings, and skip links.
  • Keyboard focus styles on every interactive control.
  • Sufficient colour contrast in dark mode.
  • Alt text on meaningful imagery; decorative images marked as such.

Where we're still improving

We are improving screen-reader announcements for live updates and adding a high-contrast theme. Feedback is welcome.

Evaluation

Last evaluated on 28 August 2026 through automated checks and manual keyboard testing. A formal accessibility audit is scheduled for Q4 2026.
