Procedure  

Anyone has the right to request accessibility of a website, a mobile application or any of their element. They have also the right to request that information be made available through an alternative method of access, for instance by reading an inaccessible element out loud, adding narration to video content without audio description, etc. Such request should include the personal data of the person making the request, indicate the website or application concerned, and a manner of contacting such person. If the person submitting such request needs to receive information through an alternative access method, they should also specify a convenient manner for providing such information. 
 
A public entity should comply with such request immediately, and no later than within 7 days of the request date. If this is not possible within this time limit, the public entity should immediately inform the person submitting the request when they can comply with the request, however, this may not last longer than 2 months from the request date. If the public entity denies the request to ensure digital accessibility or an alternative method of access to information, the person submitting the request may file a complaint regarding the accessibility of a website, mobile application or their element.  
 
If this procedure results in no effect, a request may be also submitted to the Commissioner for Human Rights.
