Accessibility Statement
Introduction
At Valencia Basket Club SAD, we are committed to universal digital accessibility and continuously work to ensure that our digital assets are usable by everyone, regardless of their abilities, age, or personal circumstances.
Our Accessibility Statement is based on the latest version of the harmonised European standard EN 301 549, the European standard for digital accessibility approved by the European Commission. This standard defines the accessibility requirements for technological products and services.
This statement applies to https://www.valenciabasket.com/, excluding embedded content from external domains. Nevertheless, Valencia Basket Club SAD and its external providers are actively committed to improving the accessibility of third-party content included within our Digital Asset in order to provide the most inclusive digital experience possible.
Our objective is to continuously monitor and address potential digital accessibility barriers in order to provide an inclusive, barrier-free experience for all users.
Beyond legal compliance, Valencia Basket Club SAD aims to exceed current digital accessibility requirements. Our commitment is to achieve the highest accessibility standards by meeting WCAG Level AAA criteria wherever possible, continuously improving the usability of our digital products, and obtaining certifications that demonstrate our commitment to accessibility excellence.
To achieve this ambitious objective, we have implemented a comprehensive Digital Accessibility Service (S.I.A.), introducing integrated corrective measures that include specialised staff training, continuous accessibility assessment and improvement systems, and proactive actions across both our websites and mobile applications, with the ultimate goal of providing a truly universal and inclusive digital experience.
