Accessibility in Focus: Our Commitment to Inclusive Web Design
Compliance
WCAG Standard ISO/IEC 40500
We strive to align with the ISO/IEC 40500 WCAG standards, recognizing that accessibility transcends a mere checklist—it's about the user experience. We aim for compliance but understand it may not always be fully achievable due to diverse use-cases and development practices. In such instances, we highlight non-compliance, offering you the flexibility to meet your specific accessibility goals.
UX
Usable Accessibility
By integrating accessibility standards with usability processes, we foster what we call 'Usable Accessibility'. This principle allows our web design to be not only accessible but also functionally usable by individuals with disabilities. We strive to address the user interface component of accessibility meticulously and integrate considerations for individuals with disabilities into our user experience design seamlessly.
Design
Accessible Design
The core of our system lies in 'Accessible Design'. We believe that understanding and implementing basic accessibility principles during the earliest stages of development helps to ensure a more inclusive outcome. Our approach to accessible design involves utilizing these principles to develop and evaluate early prototypes, paving the way for essential accessibility right from the developmental stages.
