Advanced Brain Center aims to conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA. Our website is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. “Partially conformant” means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.

Accessibility of our website relies on the following technologies to work with the particular combination of web browser and any assistive technologies or plugins installed on your computer:

• HTML5
• CSS3

These technologies are relied upon for conformance with the accessibility standards used.

5. Known Limitations
