Accessibility Statement

1. Our Commitment

TDM Otomotiv Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. is committed to making our website accessible to the widest possible audience, including visitors using assistive technologies. We believe everyone should be able to access information about our manufacturing capabilities equally.

2. Conformance Target

Our website has been designed with the objective of conforming to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, and we regularly test key user journeys using automated and manual accessibility checks. WCAG 2.1 AA is referenced by the EU Accessibility Act (EAA) and the EU Web Accessibility Directive (2016/2102) as relevant good-practice standards.

3. Implemented Solutions

• Colour contrast: body text and interactive elements are designed against the WCAG AA contrast targets (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text); contrast is reviewed periodically
• Keyboard navigation: primary interactive elements (links, buttons, forms, dropdowns) are designed to be reachable and operable by keyboard
• Focus indicators: a distinct red focus ring is visible when navigating by keyboard
• Skip-to-content link: keyboard users can bypass the navigation
• Semantic HTML: proper heading hierarchy (h1 → h2), <main>, <header>, <nav>, <footer> landmarks on every page
• Alt text: meaningful images are intended to carry descriptive alt attributes; coverage is reviewed on an ongoing basis
• Form labels: form inputs use associated <label> elements
• Touch targets: mobile interactive elements are at least 44×44 px
• Reduced motion: respects the prefers-reduced-motion setting; animations and transitions are disabled accordingly
• Multilingual support: correct lang attributes and hreflang markers for Turkish, English, and German
• Aspect-ratio reservation: images reserve layout space before loading, preventing layout shift (CLS)

4. Known Limitations

The site embeds the following third-party content whose accessibility quality depends on the provider:

• YouTube company video on the homepage (loads only after marketing-cookie consent)
• Google Maps location embed on the contact page (loads only after marketing-cookie consent)

For narrative video content, captions or transcripts can be provided on request.

5. Testing Approach

Accessibility features are verified regularly using:

• Automated audits (Lighthouse, axe-core)

• Colour contrast verification (WCAG AA calculation)
