Accessibility Policy
Effective Date: January 27, 2025
At Local Index BCN, we believe that thoughtful travel begins with access â for everyone. We are committed to making our website and services inclusive and usable for all people, regardless of ability, background, or device.
Our Commitment
We are working toward ensuring that our website and digital products are:
đ§ Perceivable
Information and content should be available in ways that can be recognized by all users, including those using assistive technologies.
đšī¸ Operable
The interface should work via keyboard, screen readers, and other assistive tools without hindrance.
đ§Š Understandable
Content is written clearly and structured logically, with a goal of reducing confusion.
âī¸ Robust
Our site is built to work across modern devices and browsers, and we aim to maintain compatibility as technologies evolve.
We are working to align with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA.
Current Features
- Clear, high-contrast typography
- Logical navigation and heading structure
- Mobile-first responsive design
- Image alt-text (as available)
- Form labels and accessible buttons
As an evolving project, some features (e.g., screen reader testing or full keyboard navigation) may still be in development. We are actively learning and improving.
Limitations & MVP Disclaimer
Local Index BCN is a small, independent project in active development. While we strive to provide a fully accessible experience, we acknowledge that we may not always get it right â yet.
If you experience any issues, please reach out. We value feedback and want to fix any barriers.

Third-Party Services
We use platforms such as Tally.so, Gumroad, and Make.com to provide certain features (e.g., forms, purchases, email delivery). While we choose tools with accessibility in mind, we cannot guarantee full accessibility for all third-party components. We welcome any reports or insights about issues you experience.
Ongoing Efforts
We are continuing to:
- Audit and refine our site's accessibility
- Review content to be more inclusive in language and presentation
- Ensure compatibility with assistive technologies
- Offer downloadable formats (such as plain-text summaries or audio snippets) when possible
Let's Build Better, Together
Our project exists to serve travelers who want to explore Barcelona with care and respect for the communities they visit. Accessibility is part of that mission â not an afterthought.
If you have suggestions, questions, or accessibility needs, we're listening.
