Accessibility Statement

The Clarins Group is committed to making its websites accessible in accordance with Directive (EU) 2019/882 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 on the accessibility requirements for products and services.

Our websites have been designed with the aim of making them accessible to all, especially people with visual impairments. They follow the recommendations of the RAWeb and the standards set by the W3C.

We are actively pursuing our efforts to ensure that our content is always accessible, with a view to ensuring equal access to our sites.

To this end, we implement the following strategy and actions:

  • Actions carried out:
    • FACIL'iti makes it possible to personalise the display of the site according to the needs of the user's visual, gestural, cognitive and/or temporary comfort;
    • Compliance audit carried out by the company Ferpection.
  • Actions to be taken:
    • Compliance of non-accessible elements

This accessibility statement applies to the UK site: https://www.clarins.co.uk/

Compliance Status

The https://www.clarins.co.uk/ site is non-compliant with the RAWeb, which includes the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level single A (A) and double A (AA), due to the non-conformances and derogations listed below.

Test results

The compliance audit carried out by the company Ferpection reveals that the site complies with 44.74% of the RAWeb criteria. This percentage of RAWeb criteria met is obtained by dividing the number of validated criteria by the number of applicable criteria.

The average compliance rate is obtained by averaging the compliance rates of each page (at the test level). Thus, the average compliance rate on our site is 68.54%.
