We are constantly working to make the WGSN website (www.wgsn.com) as usable and accessible as possible for every user. We have made every effort to ensure that this website meets or exceeds the relevant legal requirements.
In May 2025 WGSN conducted a Google Lighthouse (‘Lighthouse’) scan of its website to assess its compliance with relevant Accessibility requirements. Based on this evaluation, the results indicate that the site aligns with Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (‘ADA’) and the European Accessibility Act Directive (EU) 2019/882 (‘EAA’) compliance standards. Please see the results here.
While this provides a useful benchmark, it is important to note that Lighthouse does not provide a comprehensive legal assessment, and therefore WGSN cannot definitively covenant, warrant or guarantee full ADA or EAA compliance.
We believe this website meets or exceeds the global gold standard for web accessibility, aligning with the Level AA criteria of the World Wide Web Consortium Web Accessibility Initiative (WCAG WAI) 2.1 guidelines. This compliance is widely accepted as fulfilling ADA/EAA requirements. We are committed to continuous improvement wherever possible.
