Istanbul Tourist Information is committed to making our website usable for as many people as possible, including visitors who use assistive technologies.
1. Our goal
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA where reasonably practicable. Accessibility is an ongoing effort as we publish new guides and improve the site.
2. Measures we take
- semantic headings and structure for clearer navigation;
- keyboard-accessible controls for primary interactive elements;
- visible focus states and skip-to-content links;
- text alternatives for meaningful images where provided;
- sufficient color contrast in core interface elements;
- responsive layouts that adapt to different screen sizes;
- language attributes and a language switcher for multilingual content;
- form labels and status messages for contact and newsletter flows.
3. Known limitations
Some older articles, embedded third-party maps, videos, or advertisements may not fully meet our accessibility target. We work to improve these areas as content is updated. PDF or external resources linked from guides may have their own accessibility characteristics outside our control.
4. Compatibility
The site is designed to work with modern browsers and common assistive technologies. Experience may vary depending on your browser, operating system, and assistive tools.
5. Feedback
If you encounter an accessibility barrier, please tell us via the contact form. Include the page URL and a short description of the issue. We will review feedback and aim to respond with information about available alternatives or planned improvements.
6. Scope
This statement applies to https://istanbultouristinformation.org. Third-party websites linked from our pages are not covered by this statement.
7. Updates
We may revise this Accessibility Statement as the site evolves. The “Last updated” date shows the latest version.
