For all non-text content at least one of the following is true:
For non-text content that presents information:
-- if the information can be presented in text, then text alternatives
present the same information as the non-text content.
--if the content is multimedia, live audio-only or live video-only content,
or if the content that is primarily intended to create a specific sensory
experience, then text alternatives at least identify the non-text content
with a descriptive text label.
--if the information cannot be presented in text or if the non-text
content accepts user input, then:
a) If the non-text content is a test or exercise that must be presented
in non-text format, then text alternatives at least identify the
non-text content with a descriptive text label. In addition, if the
purpose of the test is to confirm that content is being operated by a
person rather than a computer, then multiple versions are provided to
accommodate multiple different disabilities.
b) otherwise text alternatives at least identify the purpose of the
non-text content.
For non-text content that does not present information (decorative,
formatting, invisible), text alternatives communicate to assistive
technology that the content should not be rendered.
