Thales Belgium aims to make our content as accessible as possible to all audiences (including those with visual, hearing, cognitive or motor impairments). We intend to offer alternatives to all our users.

Our commitment to accessibility begins with this site and our efforts to ensure that all functionality and all content is accessible to all users.

We refer to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.0) set by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and Webaim for guidance WCAG 2.0 AA.
In the long term, our goal is that our website meets the AA conformance level. For now, we are focusing on meeting the single-A conformance level. We are not there yet, but we are constantly working on improvements.
We are aware of the types of adaptive technology used by people with disabilities and we are working towards ensuring compatibility with as many of these systems as possible.
