Despite all our efforts to ensure accessibility on Sisley-Paris.com, certain limitations may exist. You’ll find a description below of the known limitations and possible solutions. Please contact us if you detect a problem that doesn’t appear in the list below.
Known limitations on Sisley-Paris.com:
- Videos : There is no audio description for the educational software and promotional video clips since, despite all our efforts, it appeared that the audio descriptions were not able to provide a satisfactory equivalent of the visual content. We decided to provide transcriptions instead. Please contact us if you experience difficulties with the transcribed videos.
- Text : Contrast is sometimes insufficient due to constraints linked to the brands own graphic charter. In order to minimize this problem, we are avoiding the use of certain colors with our new content. We urge you to use your system's accessibility options in order to select a color scheme that best meets your needs:
- For Windows 10 and later versions, modify your display in Settings > Ease of Access > High Contrast;
- For Windows 7, 8 and 8.1, modify your display in Control Panel > Ease of Access;
- For Mac OS 10.2 and later, select a color scheme in Preferences > Display > Colors.
- For Android, modify your display by going to Settings > Display (note: may vary depending on the manufacturer of your device);
- For iOS, modify your display by going to Settings > General > Accessibility.
