Everyone has the right to request the accessibility of the website, the mobile application or any element thereof. It is also possible to request information in alternative forms, such as reading a digitally unavailable document, describing the content of a film without an audio description, etc. The request should include the identity of the person making the request, an indication of which website or mobile application is involved and the way in which he or she can be contacted. If the person requests information in an alternative form, he or she should also specify the form of that information.
The public entity should comply with the request immediately and no later than within 7 days. If it is not possible to meet this deadline, the public entity shall immediately inform when it will be possible to comply with the request, but this deadline shall not be longer than 2 months. If it is not possible to ensure accessibility, the public entity may propose an alternative way to access the information.
In case an entity refuses to comply with a request for accessibility or alternative access to information, a complaint may be made against such action.

Once all appeal possibilities are used, a complaint to the Ombudsman also applies.
