- clear labels, instructions and error messages for forms and calculators;
- compatibility with commonly used assistive technologies;
- accessible customer information and downloadable documents, or an accessible alternative format; and
- identification, security and payment-related functions designed to be accessible.

Accessibility support and alternative formats
If content, a document or a digital service is difficult to access, Izola Bank can provide assistance or an alternative accessible format where reasonably practicable. Depending on the request, this may include accessible HTML, Word, PDF, large-print or plain-text information.
Known accessibility limitations
Izola Bank is reviewing and improving its digital services. Some downloadable documents, calculators, product tables or third-party support features may not yet fully meet the intended accessibility standard. Reported barriers will be assessed and addressed through the Bank’s accessibility review and remediation process. Where content cannot be accessed, an alternative format may be requested.
