Accessibility Statement

Last updated: Jun 18, 2026

1. Commitment

The Provincial Municipality of Huaylas works to make this portal accessible to as many people as possible, regardless of their technical, cognitive or physical abilities, and to guarantee access to information for people with disabilities.

2. Legal framework

This statement is framed by Law No. 29973, the General Law on Persons with Disabilities, and its regulations (Supreme Decree No. 002-2014-MIMP); by Law No. 28530, which promotes Internet access for persons with disabilities; and by the Regulations of the Digital Government Law (Supreme Decree No. 029-2021-PCM). As a technical reference we adopt the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, embodied in the Peruvian Technical Standard NTP-ISO/IEC 40500.

3. Conformance status

The site is designed to target WCAG 2.1 level AA. It is currently considered partially conformant: most content complies, but some elements may not meet every criterion; we work continuously to fix them.

4. Accessibility features

• the language of each page is declared for screen readers (lang attribute);
• structure with headings and navigation regions to aid wayfinding;
• alternative text on content images;
• visible focus indicators when navigating by keyboard;
• respect for the system preference to reduce motion and animations;
• zoom and text scaling enabled (the pinch-to-zoom gesture is not blocked);
• responsive design for mobile, tablet and desktop;
• careful color contrast between text and background.

5. Known limitations

Despite our efforts, limitations may remain: third-party content embedded or linked (maps, social networks) whose accessibility we do not control, older documents or images without a full description, and the English translation still being completed. If you encounter a barrier, please let us know.

6. How to report accessibility issues

If you have difficulty accessing any content or wish to suggest an improvement, write to [email protected] or call (+51) 43 391029. Tell us the page and the problem found; we will respond and look for an alternative way to provide you with the information.

7. Complaint channels

If you believe your right to access information has not been respected, you may file a complaint with the Municipality through its support channels and, where applicable, with the National Council for the Integration of Persons with Disabilities (CONADIS).

8. Updates

We review and update this statement periodically. The date of the latest update is shown at the top of the document.
