Complaint and application procedure

Everyone has the right to request for the digital accessibility of the website, mobile application or any of their elements. You may also request to be provided the information through an alternative access method, for example through reading the digitally unavailable document or by describing the content of the video without the audio description, etc. The request should contain a notifier’s data and the indication about which website or mobile application is in question and how to contact the notifier. If the notifier communicates the need to receive information via an alternative access method, he or she should specify a convenient way of providing the information requested. The public entity should realise the request, immediately, no later than within 7 days from the date of receiving the request. If meeting this deadline is not attainable, the public entity will immediately inform the notifier about the possible date to realise the request, but which shall in no case be longer than 2 months from the date of receiving the request. If ensuring the digital accessibility is not possible, the public entity will propose an alternative method of accessing the information. If a public entity refuses to realise the request to ensure the accessibility or an alternative method of access to the information, the notifier may make a complaint referring to ensuring the digital accessibility of the website, mobile application, or the element of website or mobile application. Once this procedure has been exhausted, the notifier may submit a request to Polish Ombudsman.
