Accessibility

The Center for Direct Scientific Communication (CCSD) is committed to making its websites accessible in accordance with Article 47 of the French Law No. 2005-102 of February 11, 2005.

To this end, an “Accessibility” working group has been created to draft the multi-year accessibility plan.

This accessibility statement applies to the present website.

This website is not compliant with the General Accessibility Improvement Framework, RGAA version 4.1, due to the absence of an accessibility audit.

This statement was established on October 28, 2025.

It is important to recall that, under Article 11 of the February 2005 law: “Persons with disabilities are entitled to compensation for the consequences of their disability, regardless of the origin and nature of their impairment, their age, or their lifestyle.”

The CCSD is committed to taking the necessary measures to provide access, within a reasonable timeframe, to the information and functionalities sought by persons with disabilities, whether or not the content is subject to an exemption.

The CCSD invites anyone experiencing difficulties to contact us at accessibilite@ccsd.cnrs.fr so that assistance can be provided (accessible alternatives, information, or content provided in another format).

If you notice an accessibility issue preventing you from accessing content or functionality on the website, and you report it without receiving a satisfactory response, you are entitled to submit your grievances or request mediation to the Defender of Rights.
