Accessibility statement for NDX Try Before You Buy

This accessibility statement applies to the National Data Exchange (NDX) Try Before You Buy feature.

This website is run by the Cabinet Office. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:

  • navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
  • navigate most of the website using speech recognition software
  • listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver)
  • change colours, contrast levels and fonts
  • zoom in up to 300% without the text spilling off the screen

We’ve also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.
