The organization’s previous website was built on an outdated and complex CMS solution with custom-developed applications and tailored functionalities. Technically and in terms of user experience, it was no longer up to modern standards.
Therefore, the organization needed a more accessible website, especially since seven out of ten users visit cancer.dk from their mobile devices.
We developed the website with a sharp focus on the four main principles of WCAG: perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust content presentation.
Ensuring accessibility requires that users can navigate the site using only a keyboard or with the support of a screen reader.
We are by far the largest Danish-language website on cancer, with many relevant users who rely on our content. It simply wouldn’t work if people couldn’t access our site due to a disability.
The new website was developed with input from cancer patients and their families, ensuring a digital experience that truly supports them.
Empathy played a crucial role in delivering a solution that not only meets technical standards but also aligns with the Danish Cancer Society’s mission to be accessible to everyone in need.
Our technical expertise ensured that the site operates seamlessly across different technologies and browsers. This guarantees longevity and accessibility, regardless of the assistive technologies users prefer.
Thanks to a strong collaboration between the Danish Cancer Society and Immeo, the new website fully complies with WCAG 2.1 principles.
The Danish Cancer Society’s new web platform is a prime example of how technical expertise can be combined with a strong commitment to accessibility, ensuring compliance with the four key principles of WCAG 2.1.
Developing a website that is both user-friendly and digitally inclusive requires trust, understanding, and empathy for cancer.dk’s end users.
At Immeo, we always strive to deeply understand our clients’ needs. This approach has been crucial in delivering a solution that not only meets technical standards but also supports the Danish Cancer Society’s mission to be accessible to all.
The best part of working with Immeo is that they deliver results. Their consultants truly know what they’re talking about and can create the best solution. And I think it makes a huge difference that Immeo’s consultants worked alongside us. It has been incredibly valuable - and essential to the project’s success.
