Our Commitment

Our website is designed and maintained with accessibility as a priority. Our team uses industry-standard tools (axe-core, WebAIM WAVE, manual screen-reader testing) to identify and address accessibility barriers.

  • Implemented weekly automated accessibility scanning of all public pages
  • Applied site-wide color contrast, focus, and landmark fixes meeting WCAG 2.1 AA
  • Built an internal issue tracker so each violation is logged, fixed, and audit-tracked
  • Added a floating accessibility toolbar for visitor customization
  • Provided keyboard navigation, skip links, and ARIA landmarks throughout
  • Ensured proper heading hierarchy, image alt text, and form labels
