The following website https://www.inf.uniri.hr/ is partially compliant with the aforementioned Act due to implementation of the new CMS platform and redesign of websites in 2019.

Partial compliance means that some parts of the content, which will be listed below, are not fully in compliance with all Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) stipulated by World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) via Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI).

Inaccessible content

According to the results of the tool used to test the accessibility, several elements of the Department of Informatics' website do not meet the requirements of the minimum contrast ratio between the background color and the text color.
