Accessibility Statement
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA, the international standard for accessible websites.
Koç Leather & Fur wants everyone to be able to use kocleather.com — to browse our Selections, read our articles, find our stores and get in touch. This statement covers kocleather.com in all its languages: English, Turkish, French, Spanish, Korean and German.
Our goal
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA, the international standard for accessible websites.
Current status
kocleather.com partially meets WCAG 2.2 level AA. Most of the site can be used with a keyboard, with screen readers and on small screens, but some parts do not yet meet the standard. They are listed below, together with what we are doing about them.
What works
- Every page states its language, so screen readers read it with the right pronunciation.
- Pages have a clear heading structure and named areas for navigation and content.
- All images have text descriptions.
- The photo viewer of the Selections works fully with the keyboard and announces each piece.
- Nothing on the site moves or plays by itself, and we respect your device's "reduce motion" setting.
- The map only loads when you ask for it. Every store's address, opening hours, phone number and directions link are also given as text.
Known limitations
We are working on the following:
- Keyboard: on larger screens, keyboard users pass through the links of the hidden mobile menu before reaching the page content. On phones, the open menu cannot be closed with the Escape key. There is no "skip to content" link yet.
- Contrast: some small grey text (dates, labels, the footer) is slightly too light against its background.
- Visible focus: the language selector and the form fields do not show clearly enough which one is selected while using the keyboard.
- Forms: the field names in the contact form are shown inside the fields and disappear while you type; the fields do not yet tell your browser what to fill in automatically.
- Cookie notice: on a first visit, the cookie notice covers part of the screen on phones and comes last when moving through the page with the keyboard.
- Small screens and zoom: on very narrow screens (or at high zoom), some lists of cards and one long link in the privacy policy are slightly wider than the screen.
- About us: the materials slider cannot be scrolled with the keyboard, and its dots are small to tap.
Content from other providers: the contact form uses hCaptcha to keep out spam; hCaptcha offers its own accessibility option. The store map is provided by Google Maps. We cannot fully control the accessibility of these services. If either gets in your way, please contact us in one of the ways below — you do not need the form or the map to reach us.
How we checked
We assessed the site ourselves on 10 November 2026: an automated check of all 134 pages against WCAG 2.2 level A and AA, at computer and phone screen sizes, together with keyboard checks of the menus, the photo viewer, the forms and the language selector, and a check on very narrow screens. We have not yet tested the site with screen-reader users.
