Anyone has the right to request the provision of accessibility to a digital website, mobile application or some element thereof.

If the person making the request wishes to receive the information by means of an alternative means of access, they should also specify how the information is to be presented in a way that is convenient for them. The public body should comply with the request without delay and no later than 7 days from the date of the request. If it is not possible to meet this deadline, the public body shall inform the requester without delay when it will be possible to comply with the request, but the deadline shall not be longer than 2 months from the date of the request.
