Method of assessment

Date of assessment: 25 June 2025

Date of last assessment review: 25 June 2025

The accessibility assessment was carried out on the basis of a digital accessibility audit carried out by the Fundacja Widzialni and a self-assessment based on WCAG 2.1 guidelines for compliance with Level A and AA.

Scope of assessment

For the purposes of the accessibility assessment, the site was divided into two main functional scopes:

Pages offering a sales service or related to the purchasing process - hereafter referred to as the purchasing process.

Other sections of the website not related to the sales service - non-purchasing pages.

The digital accessibility assessment focuses on the purchase path, i.e. the elements of the site through which the electronic sales service is delivered.
