Everyone has the right to request digital accessibility of a website, mobile application or any of their elements.

If the requesting person reports the need to receive information using an alternative access method, he or she should also determine the method of presenting this information that is convenient for him or her. The public entity should fulfill the request immediately, no later than within 7 days from the date of the request. If it is not possible to meet this deadline, the public entity shall immediately inform the person making the request when it will be possible to fulfill the request, but this deadline cannot be longer than 2 months from the date of making the request.
