Accessibility Statement
IEF is committed to improving the accessibility and usability of its public website.
1. Accessibility Commitment
International Entrepreneurs Finland Ry aims to make its website usable by as many people as possible, including people who use assistive technologies, keyboards, screen readers, zoom or alternative input methods.
2. Scope
This statement applies to the public static website located under the IEF domain, including the Home, About, Services, Education, Events, Blog, Contact and policy pages.
External services opened from the website, including third-party forms, may have separate accessibility statements and may not be fully controlled by IEF.
3. Measures Implemented
The website has been designed with measures including:
- semantic HTML and a logical heading structure;
- keyboard-accessible navigation and visible focus indicators;
- a skip-to-content link;
- responsive layouts and minimum touch-target sizing;
- descriptive alternative text for meaningful images;
- colour contrast intended to support readability;
- support for reduced-motion preferences;
- accessible controls for the mobile menu and cookie settings.
4. Current Conformance Status
IEF aims to follow WCAG 2.1 Level AA principles. The website has been reviewed during development, but it has not yet undergone a complete independent accessibility audit. For that reason, the current status is best described as partially conformant.
5. Known Limitations
Known or possible limitations may include:
- external contact forms or embedded third-party content;
- older uploaded documents that may not be fully accessible;
- content supplied by event partners or external organisations;
- minor inconsistencies that may be discovered during ongoing testing.
IEF intends to address identified problems according to their impact and available resources.
6. Accessibility Feedback
If you encounter an accessibility barrier, please describe the page, the problem and the assistive technology or browser used where relevant.

We aim to review accessibility feedback and provide a practical response within a reasonable time.
7. Preparation of This Statement
This statement was prepared on 6 August 2026 using a self-assessment of the website’s structure, keyboard operation, responsive behaviour, contrast, alternative text and reduced-motion support.
8. Updates
The statement will be updated when significant design changes, new services or accessibility assessments are introduced.
