UCL and Figshare are both committed to making its websites accessible, in line with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.
This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard, due to the non-compliances and exemptions listed below.
The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons.
User generated content: Some of the content on this website is generated and uploaded by individual users and as a result is not fully accessible. We believe that reviewing and making sure each item of content is fully accessible would be a disproportionate burden within the meaning of the accessibility regulations.
User generated content: Some of the content on this website is third-party content that is neither funded nor developed by us, nor under our control and is therefore exempt from meeting the accessibility regulations.
Access-controlled parts: Parts of this website are not available to the general public and are exempt from meeting the accessibility regulations until such time it undergoes a substantial revision, which is planned to be complete by the end of 2021.
Figshare is working towards full accessibility on privately-accessible pages and a major revision of this area is the key development focus for 2021. For further details, please email [support@figshare.com].
