European Accessibility Act (EAA) Conformance Statement

This statement describes the conformance of Aletheia by Lonia AI with the European Accessibility Act (Directive 2019/882) and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA. It is written to be verified by users, procurement teams, and accessibility enforcement authorities in the European Union.

Last reviewed: July 14, 2026

Introduction

Aletheia by Lonia AI is committed to making its products usable by everyone, including people who rely on assistive technology. This statement sets out how Aletheia conforms with the European Accessibility Act (Directive 2019/882) and with WCAG 2.2 Level AA. Accessibility is the reason Aletheia exists, so the tool holds itself to the standard it helps people enforce on other content.

Scope

This statement covers the following, together referred to as Aletheia:

  • The Aletheia web application, where users process and remediate web pages and documents.
  • The Aletheia marketing website at this domain.
  • The institutional administration dashboards used by Campus and Enterprise account administrators.

Conformance status

The formal conformance basis for this statement is WCAG 2.2 Level AA together with EN 301 549 V3.2.1, the harmonised European standard in force as of the publication date.

Aletheia targets full conformance with WCAG 2.2 Level AA. As of the review date, Aletheia is partially conformant. Partially conformant means that most requirements of the standard are met and that the known exceptions, where content does not yet fully conform, are listed in the section below. Conformance is assessed by self-evaluation. A formal third-party accessibility audit has not yet been carried out.

Technical mapping

For a clause-by-clause view of how Aletheia maps against EN 301 549, including the applicable chapters and each WCAG 2.2 Level AA success criterion, read the EN 301 549 Conformance Mapping. It also records preparation for EN 301 549 V4.1.1, expected to be referenced in the Official Journal in October 2026.

For EU public sector procurement, Aletheia also publishes an EU Accessibility Statement in the mandated template of Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2018/1523. That statement follows the Web Accessibility Directive template order; this conformance statement addresses the European Accessibility Act (Directive 2019/882). Both documents co-exist.

Known non-conformances

The following limitations are known and are being worked on. They are listed so that users and buyers can make an informed decision.

  • Screen reader compatibility of exported tagged PDF files is still under testing. Formal test evidence with NVDA, JAWS, and VoiceOver against exported PDF output is pending.
  • Exported tagged PDF files carry proper structure tags, alternative text, and outlines for Latin-script content. Non-Latin scripts may show fallback characters in the current build. Plain text export preserves all Unicode content without loss and can be used where non-Latin scripts must be retained exactly.
  • Product documentation is expanding, and older articles may not yet follow the same heading discipline as newer ones.

Aletheia publishes a Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) in the ITI VPAT 2.5 format, mapping conformance against every WCAG 2.2 Level A and Level AA success criterion and the Revised Section 508 standards. Read the VPAT accessibility report, or download the tagged PDF.

Compatibility

Aletheia is built and tested to work with current versions of major browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge, on desktop and on mobile, and to function at a viewport width of 375 pixels and above. Aletheia targets support for the NVDA, JAWS, and VoiceOver screen readers. It is designed to be operated with a keyboard alone, and it respects the operating system setting for reduced motion.

Testing methodology

This statement is based on the following evaluation methods:

  • Automated accessibility testing with axe-core, run continuously as part of development.
  • Manual keyboard-only testing by the Aletheia team.
  • Manual checks of semantic structure, focus order, contrast, and form labeling.

A formal audit by an independent third party is planned and has not yet been completed. This statement will be updated when that audit is available.

Feedback and contact

If you find an accessibility barrier in Aletheia, or need information from Aletheia in an accessible format that is not currently provided, please tell us. Aletheia treats accessibility issues as defects, not feature requests.

Enforcement procedure

The European Accessibility Act is enforced by national authorities in each European Union Member State. If you contact us about an accessibility barrier and you are not satisfied with our response, you can contact the accessibility enforcement or market surveillance authority designated in your Member State. Examples include:

  • France: the Direction générale de la concurrence, de la consommation et de la répression des fraudes (DGCCRF).
  • Germany: the market surveillance authority designated under the Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz (BFSG).
  • Sweden: the Swedish Post and Telecom Authority (Post- och telestyrelsen, PTS).
  • Netherlands: the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (Autoriteit Consument en Markt, ACM).

The European Commission publishes information on the European Accessibility Act and the authorities responsible for enforcing it in each Member State.

Preparation of this statement

This statement was prepared by Lonia AI on the basis of a self-evaluation of Aletheia against WCAG 2.2 Level AA and EN 301 549 V3.2.1, using automated testing with axe-core and manual testing as described above. A third-party audit is planned. The statement is written so that it can be amended when EN 301 549 V4.1.1, which references WCAG 2.2 AA, is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union.
