Lookout.ie is wherever possible committed to making its services as accessible as possible to all users.
In short, an accessible site is one which which can be used by all people. To be accessible you must take into account many different user situations.
For example:
Can a blind user use your website using a screen reader?
Can users who have poor eyesight increase the text size?
Can a user navigate the site without a mouse?
Is the site usable on different browsers, operating systems and so on?
The list above is just to give you an idea of what we had to consider in building this site. If you are interested in reading more about accessibility please view the Irish National Disability Authority IT Accessibility Guidlines or the Web Accessibility Initiative.
As much as possible this site validates to the latest web standards - XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS. By using the latest standards we ensure the site will be viewable on all the modern browsers. This site should also be usable on older browsers that do not comply with the latest standards, however, it may look different!
The majority of pages on the site should also conform to the highest web accessibility standard WAI-AAA and should also be Bobby AAA approved
Some areas of this site rely on external services and as a result there is no way we can guarantee that these services can be accessible. These areas include the email, games, translator, currency converter etc.
