Accessibility Statement

A11yscan is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all users.

Our Commitment

A11yscan is dedicated to providing an accessible website that complies with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AAA standards. We believe accessibility is not just a legal requirement but a fundamental principle of inclusive design. We are committed to ensuring that everyone, regardless of ability, can access and use our website effectively.

Semantic HTML structure for proper content hierarchy
7:1 color contrast ratios exceeding AAA requirements
Full keyboard navigation support with visible focus indicators

ARIA labels and landmarks for screen reader support
Mobile and responsive design for all devices

Accessibility Features

Keyboard Navigation

All interactive elements are fully accessible via keyboard. You can navigate through links, buttons, and form fields using the Tab key. Press Shift+Tab to move backwards. All functionality available via mouse is also available via keyboard.

Screen Reader Support

This website is designed to work with screen readers including NVDA, JAWS, and VoiceOver. We use semantic HTML and ARIA labels to ensure screen reader users receive accurate information about page structure and functionality.

Color Contrast

All text and interactive elements maintain at minimum 7:1 color contrast ratios, exceeding WCAG Level AAA requirements. This ensures readability for users with low vision and color blindness.

Resizable Text

You can increase text size up to 200% using your browser's zoom function without losing functionality or readability. All content remains accessible at larger sizes.

Focus Indicators

All interactive elements display clear, visible focus indicators when navigating with the keyboard. These indicators provide users with clear visual feedback about which element currently has focus.

Skip Links

This website includes skip links that allow keyboard users to bypass repetitive navigation and jump directly to main content. Press Tab immediately after loading the page to access skip links.

Tested with Assistive Technology

This website has been tested for accessibility using:

NVDA (free screen reader for Windows)
VoiceOver (built-in screen reader for macOS and iOS)
Keyboard-only navigation
axe DevTools accessibility auditing
WAVE accessibility evaluation tool
Chrome DevTools Lighthouse accessibility audit

Known Limitations

While we strive for complete accessibility, we acknowledge these potential limitations:

Third-party content: External embedded content (maps, videos) may have accessibility limitations beyond our control. We provide text alternatives and descriptions where possible.
PDF documents: While we tag PDFs for accessibility, older documents may have limited screen reader support.
User-generated content: Content submitted by users may not meet accessibility standards until reviewed and remediated.

WCAG 2.1 Level AAA: The highest conformance level of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines published by the W3C.
