# Accessibility Statement

Last updated: April 2026

## Our Commitment to Accessibility

FOCTTA is committed to making our platform accessible to everyone, including persons with disabilities. We recognise that digital access is a **fundamental right** under Article 21 of the Constitution of India, as affirmed by the Supreme Court in *Pragya Prasun & Ors. v. Union of India* (30 April 2025). Privacy compliance tooling should be usable by everyone - Data Protection Officers, compliance analysts, auditors, and the data principals they serve.

## Standards We Follow

FOCTTA is designed to conform to the following accessibility standards:

-   **WCAG 2.2 Level AA** - Web Content Accessibility Guidelines published by the W3C
-   **IS 17802 (Part 1:2021 and Part 2:2022)** - Indian Standard for Accessibility of ICT Products and Services, enforceable under the RPWD Amendment Rules 2023
-   **Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016 (RPWD Act)** - Sections 40 and 46, accessibility obligations for ICT products
-   **SEBI Digital Accessibility Circular dated 31 July 2025** - applicable to our regulated-entity customers
-   **European Accessibility Act (EAA), Directive (EU) 2019/882** - enforced from 28 June 2025
-   **DPDPA 2023, Section 5(3)** - a person can choose to read a privacy notice in English or any of the 22 languages of the Eighth Schedule

## Audit and Conformance

FOCTTA's accessibility is evaluated through a combination of automated tooling (axe-core, Lighthouse, WAVE) run continuously in our CI/CD pipeline, and manual keyboard-only and screen-reader testing as part of every release cycle. Independent IAAP-certified audit is scheduled as part of our SEBI compliance cycle.

A detailed **Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR/VPAT)** is available on request for enterprise procurement teams.

## Shared Responsibility for Customer-Configured Widgets

Where customers (Data Fiduciaries under the DPDPA, 2023) configure customer-facing widgets - notices, preference centres, rights portals - with their own brand, copy, and language, the platform provides tooling to help the Data Fiduciary configure accessible defaults and keep a documented audit of any accessibility exception they elect to accept. This model respects Data Fiduciary autonomy while ensuring informed, documented decisions.

## Feedback and Complaints

We welcome feedback on the accessibility of FOCTTA. If you encounter any accessibility barrier, please let us know:

-   **Email:** [accessibility@foctta.com](mailto:accessibility@foctta.com)
-   **Response time:** We aim to respond within 2 business days and resolve critical issues within 15 days

Under the RPWD Act 2016 and the Supreme Court's 30 April 2025 ruling in *Pragya Prasun v. Union of India*, you have a right to report accessibility failures. You may also file a complaint with the Office of the Chief Commissioner for Persons with Disabilities (CCPD) at the Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities, Government of India.
