Technical information about the accessibility of the website

This website is partially compliant with the Digital Public Service Accessibility Act, due to the shortcomings described below.

Content not available

  • Lack of compliance with legal requirements
  • The e-service "Send e-mail" because it must be protected with a so-called recaptcha due to the risk of abuse.
  • Equations are displayed today on some pages as image and not as readable html. We are constantly working to replace these.
  • Some pages do not have a publication date. We work to get dates on all pages. If you visit a page without a date and want to know when it was published / last changed, you are welcome to contact our customer service.
  • The images on sgu.se are largely adapted, however, there may be some images that lack alternative text. We work continuously to write alternative texts on the images that lack this.
  • Our video recordings are subtitled, but they lack a text-based script or other presentation of the recording.
  • Our video recordings are not visually interpreted.
  • Help text is missing for some incorrect entries in our forms.
  • Unable to undo clicks.
  • Not all form fields are marked in the code.

Unreasonably burdensome adjustment

SGU invokes exceptions for unreasonably onerous adaptation in accordance with section 12 of the Act on Accessibility to Digital Public Services for the content below.

  • Some tables require horizontal scrolling.
  • Content not covered by the law
  • The pages "Vacancies" because the function is managed in a separate HR system that we can not change ourselves.
  • Maps not intended for navigation.
  • The page "Search in GeoRegister via map".
