Accessibility statement

Wavestone is committed to aligning its societal commitments and policy for people with disabilities with its digital strategy, and to making the digital accessibility of its website a major issue. We want our visitors – decision-makers, candidates, investors and employees – to enjoy the best possible digital experience.

To this end, Wavestone undertook a complete overhaul of its website, with one requirement in terms of accessibility: to certify the site with a compliance rate of over 80%, with no critical blocking points (compliance with a list of 30 RGAA criteria).

To achieve this, Wavestone took accessibility into account right from the start of the project:

  • A clearly defined compliance objective that is communicated internally, so that everyone involved in the project understands what is at stake
  • A choice of digital design considering accessibility as an imperative, based on a new accessible brand graphic charter
  • Specific developments to make content accessible to all, checked by an external auditor as the project progresses

In the long term, Wavestone plans to guarantee a site that is accessible over time:

  • Raising awareness and training contributors
  • The pursuit of requirements and best practices in future developments, from the design of new services through to development,
  • Setting up means to assess quality and correct accessibility faults as they occur

Wavestone undertakes to make its website accessible in accordance with article 47 of law no. 2005-102 of February 11, 2005.

This accessibility statement applies to the https://www.wavestone.com website.
