This sentence presents a hypothetical scenario where access depends on a condition. Another use could be in a polite suggestion: "Ils accéderaient volontiers à votre demande si le temps le permettait," meaning "They would gladly agree to your request if time permitted."

It indicates an action that is not certain but is presented as a possibility or a courteous option.
