Introduction
Digital accessibility refers to the universal ability of different users and help devices to access the content and functionality of a digital product or service, regardless of their physical or cognitive abilities.
Digital devices must be designed in order to make sure that understanding, interaction and navigation are easy for everyone.
Digital accessibility concerns us all, because each and every one of us may be faced with a disability or impairment in the course of our lives.
Michelin is committed to implementing as many of the mandatory WCAG AA rules as possible.
For example, disability or impairment situational, temporary or permanent.

Visual and auditory perception facilitated
Non-textual content has equivalents
Operable
Orientation of the user during navigation
Functionalities accessible with the keyboard
Sufficient time for the user to perform the actions
Content not likely to cause epileptic seizures
Understandable
Pages are navigable in a predictable manner
Users are assisted in correcting input errors
Robust
Compatibility with current and future uses, including assistive technologies, is optimized
