Santé publique France is committed to making its websites, intranet, and mobile applications accessible in accordance with Article 47 of Law No. 2005-102 of February 11, 2005.

To this end, Santé publique France is implementing the following strategy and actions:

  • the accessibility statement below.

This accessibility statement applies to the website https://www.santepubliquefrance.fr.

Website Accessibility

Compliance status and test results

The website https://www.santepubliquefrance.fr is partially compliant with the General Accessibility Improvement Framework (RGAA), version 4.1.2, due to the non-conformities and exceptions listed below.

Preparation of the accessibility statement

The compliance audit conducted by an external auditor on January 29, 2026, reveals that 93.15% of the RGAA version 4.1.2 criteria are met.

Inaccessible content

The content listed below is not accessible for the following reasons.

Non-conformities

List of non-compliant criteria:

  • 3.2 On each web page, is the contrast between the text color and the background color sufficiently high (except in special cases)?
  • 7.1 Is each script, where necessary, compatible with assistive technologies? 
  • 7.3 Can each script be controlled using a keyboard and any pointing device (except in special cases)? 
  • 7.4 For each script that initiates a context change, is the user notified or given control?
  • 9.1 On each web page, is the information structured through the appropriate use of headings?
  • 13.3 On each web page, does every downloadable office document have an accessible version, if necessary (except in special cases)?

Exemption for Disproportionate Burden
