-
Some images have alternative texts that are not descriptive enough.

The videos embedded on our website consist of images without spoken text. These videos currently do not have subtitles.

We are continuously committed to improving accessibility. If you encounter barriers or have suggestions for improvement, please feel free to contact us.
