13. Website Accessibility

We want everybody to be able to use our website, including people who browse with screen readers, keyboards, magnification or other assistive technology.

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA, the international standard for making websites usable by people with disabilities. In practice, this means we work to ensure that:

  • text has enough contrast against its background to be readable;
  • the whole site can be navigated with a keyboard alone, without a mouse;
  • all meaningful images carry text descriptions that screen readers can announce;
  • forms have properly associated labels;
  • text can be enlarged to 200% without the layout breaking or content being lost;
  • nothing relies on colour alone to convey meaning.

Accessibility is an ongoing effort rather than a one-off fix. Parts of our site rely on third-party tools and embedded content that we do not fully control, and we cannot guarantee that every page meets every criterion at all times. We review our site periodically and correct the issues we find.

Tell us if something does not work for you. If you encounter a barrier on our website, or if you need any of our materials in an alternative format, please contact us at info@ontologyofvalue.com and describe the page and the problem. We aim to reply within five working days and will work with you to give you access to the information or service you need.

Artificial Intelligence (EU AI Act)

Last updated: 5 August 2026.

This section explains how artificial intelligence is, and is not, used in our products and on our websites. It is provided in connection with Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 (the “AI Act”), whose transparency obligations became applicable on 2 August 2026.

How the Ontology of Value® Test produces your result. The Test is a psychometric questionnaire. Your answers are scored automatically, using a fixed and standardised scoring model. The parameters of that model were established once, during the development of the Test, using statistical and machine-learning methods applied to research data. No model is trained on your individual answers, and the scoring does not adapt or learn from them. The Test places you in one of eight professional archetypes and indicates your fit across eight working environments. This is automated processing, and it produces a profile.

We do not use AI to write your results. All interpretive text in our reports is written in advance by our team. We do not use generative AI to produce, personalise or translate the results you receive.

We do not operate AI chatbots. There is no automated conversational agent on our websites. If we introduce one, we will tell you clearly that you are speaking with an AI system before you interact with it.

We do not use emotion recognition or biometric categorisation. The Test works only from the answers you choose to give. We do not analyse faces, voices, video or biometric data of any kind, and we do not attempt to infer your emotional state.

AI-assisted content on our websites. In principle we do not use AI to generate the content published on our websites. In the rare cases where we do, the text is visibly flagged as “co-written by AI”.

What the Test is for — and what it must not be used for. The Test is designed, validated and sold as an instrument for self-reflection, career orientation and professional development. It is not designed, validated or intended to be used as a basis for decisions about recruitment, selection, admission, promotion, task allocation, performance evaluation or termination. Organisations that purchase the Test for their employees, candidates or students must not use it for those purposes. Doing so falls outside the intended purpose of the Test, may place the organisation under its own obligations as a deployer — or provider — of a high-risk AI system under the AI Act, and is not supported by us.

Your rights. You may ask us how your result was produced, ask for a person to review it, or object to being profiled in this way. Write to info@ontologyofvalue.com and we will respond.

Questions. If anything here is unclear, or you would like more detail about how the Test is scored, contact us at info@ontologyofvalue.com.
