Accessibility Statement

Scope

This statement applies to the website diabolofocus.com, operated by Guillaume Karpowicz: the shop, the checkout, the help center, the community pages (diabolists, videos, records), the configurators and the account area. It does not cover the login pages, which are hosted by Wix, or media uploaded by community members.

Legal status

DiaboloFocus is a sole proprietorship and a micro-enterprise (fewer than 10 employees, annual turnover below €2 million). Under § 3 BFSG, micro-enterprises that provide services are exempt from the accessibility requirements the BFSG sets for e-commerce services. This statement is therefore voluntary. We publish it because a shop you cannot use is a shop that does not work, and because the requirements are the right target whether or not the law obliges us to meet them.

Conformance status

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. The website is partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 AA: most content and functions meet the criteria. The exceptions we know of are listed under Known limitations below.

“Partially conformant” is the honest description. Automated tools find only part of what matters, and full conformance is a claim very few websites can defend.

What was tested

The most recent assessment was a self-assessment of the live site on 14 September 2026. It covered:

• Automated checks (axe-core, WCAG 2.0 to 2.2 at levels A and AA) on 53 pages at desktop and phone width: the home page in all four languages, category, product, cart and search pages, the help center, contact, the configurators and the set builder, gift cards, loyalty, the blog, buying guides and tricks, the community pages, the IN FOCUS contest in English, Japanese and Traditional Chinese, the legal pages and the error page. The same checks ran on the open menus, search, cart, mobile menu, image viewer and dialogs.
• Contrast of text and of the edges of form fields, measured against the colours they actually sit on, including the dark sections.
• Reflow on a 320 px wide screen, and text spacing increased to the values WCAG sets.
• Keyboard-only walkthroughs of 26 page types at desktop and phone width: every focus stop visible, focus never trapped and never hidden behind a sticky bar, menus and dialogs closing with Escape.
• Target sizes, form labels and autofill, the error messages of the contact and withdrawal forms, page titles and the declared language of every page.

What it found was fixed in the same review, apart from the points under Known limitations. Screen-reader testing (VoiceOver, NVDA) and the account area, which needs a login, were not part of it; both are planned for the next review.

What is in place

• A skip link, consistent landmarks and heading structure on every page
• Everything operable by keyboard, including the option pickers, filters, the cart drawer and the image lightbox; dialogs keep focus while open and return it on close; menus opened by keyboard close with Escape
• Visible focus on every control, never hidden behind a sticky bar
• Text contrast of at least 4.5:1, and form field edges of at least 3:1
• Pages that fit a 320 px wide screen without scrolling sideways
• Pages in English, German, French and Spanish, the contest pages also in Japanese and Traditional Chinese, with the language declared on each page
• Text alternatives for product images, and names on every icon button
• Labelled form fields that your browser can fill in, and contact and withdrawal forms that name the field still missing
• A price filter you can set by clicking or tapping its track, not only by dragging
• Animations reduced, and the home page video replaced by a still image, when your system asks for reduced motion
• A pause button under the home page video
• Buttons and form controls at least 44 px tall
• Cookieless usage analytics, so no consent dialog stands between you and the shop

Known limitations

As of 26 September 2026 we know of the following:

• Photos uploaded by community members are not described (WCAG 1.1.1); the member’s name is shown beside each one.
• Videos embedded from YouTube have captions only where their creator added them (WCAG 1.2.2).
• Our own checkout replaced the one Wix provided after this review. Automated checks of the checkout page and of its error messages found no serious issues on 25 September 2026, but it has not yet been reviewed by keyboard or with a screen reader. Its payment fields are an embedded form provided by Stripe.
• The login pages are provided by Wix. They are outside this statement and we have not assessed them.

Feedback and contact

If you find a barrier on this website, or need content in another form, please tell us:

We answer accessibility feedback within 10 business days, and we treat a reported barrier as a bug to fix.

Enforcement

Because of the micro-enterprise exemption described above, no enforcement procedure under the BFSG applies to this website. If you believe the exemption is claimed wrongly, the responsible authority is the Marktüberwachungsstelle der Länder für die Barrierefreiheit von Produkten und Dienstleistungen (MLBF) in Magdeburg, Germany.
