This statement concerns Mentimeter (https://www.mentimeter.com) and the associated voting site Menti (https://www.menti.com). It does not cover user-provided content that is uploaded to Mentimeter.

We want as many people as possible to be able to use Mentimeter. For example, that means you should be able to:

• The option to add image description to user uploaded images
• Guidance for accessible colour schemes for user-created themes
• Compatible with a screen reader
• Orientation enabled for different devices
• Responsive design (meaning the display of all content is optimised for all screen sizes),
