The Data Standards Body strives to create accessible and inclusive experiences. This page provides an overview of how the CX Guidelines website has been designed so that it can be used by as many people as possible.
Measures to support accessibility
The Consumer Experience (CX) Guidelines website at cx.cds.gov.au (referred to on this page as ‘the website’) is designed for access on desktops, tablets and mobile devices. It is built using Notion and Super.
The website has been designed so that it can be used by as many people as possible. For example, you should be able to:
- change colours, contrast levels and fonts using browser settings
- zoom in up to 400% without the text spilling off the screen
- listen to most of the website using a screen reader (such as JAWS and VoiceOver)
- navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
- navigate most of the website using just a mouse and on-screen keyboard
The text on the website has been written so that it is as simple as possible to understand.
Technical specifications
The website relies on the following technologies to work with the particular combination of web browser and any assistive technologies or plugins installed on your computer or device:
- HTML
- WAI-ARIA
- CSS
- JavaScript
Conformance status and testing
All pages on the website were internally audited for accessibility compliance in July 2023. At this time, the website was partially conformant to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 level AA.
Some known issues and limitations include:
- Figma prototypes: For those using assistive technology, Figma embedded iFrames are not fully supported and may not be interactive.
- Chrome with JAWS on Windows OS: Accessibility evaluation using JAWS with Chrome on Windows operating system was limited to basic navigation. Not all features may work as intended.
The DSB will continue to address known issues and will periodically re-evaluate the website to maintain consistency with WCAG recommendations.
The website has been tested using a combination of assistive technologies, browsers and operating systems.
It is compatible with:
- Safari with VoiceOver on MacOS
- Safari with VoiceOver on iOS
- Chrome with ChromeVox on MacOS
It is partially compatible with:
- Chrome with VoiceOver on MacOS
- JAWS (v2021.2111.13 ILM) on Windows OS
- NVDA (v2023.1.0.27913) with Firefox on Windows OS
