(unknown charset) RE: ADA Compliance - Links to Third Party Websites

I resonate that this is an interesting question.
I too am hoping I understand the situation.
The content in question was created by the organization in the first 
place.  The organization opts to display the content they created on a 
third party platform.
So you are wondering if the organization created content must still be 
accessible if displayed on a third party platform?
Am I correct?

As I would suspect this would be the bases of the argument on if the organisation or third-party organisation is responsible in ensuring the web content is accessible. If you cannot modify it due to license agreements or something along those lines. Then the ownership should fall back on the third-party organisation.

If this is true, then who knows in relation to your question. Has it been tested in court as this will truly determine an organisation liability and risk.
