Accessibility Statement
Using this website
This website (www.datarich.info) is run in partnership between ESRI UK (InstantAtlas) and Richmond Council (Insight & Analytics).
InstantAtlas have conducted a Web Accessibility Overview outlining how InstantAtlas reports, dashboards and websites meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).
Please see the information below which covers the remainder of the website.
We want as many people as possible to be able to use DataRich. To help achieve this, we:
- Publish an alternative to PDF documents with limited accessibility – usually HTML but Word Document format is used where HTML is not possible
- Structure pages, headings, tables and bulleted lists consistently
- Use descriptive titles and link text
AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.
