Continuous & Ongoing Optimizations

Please be aware that our efforts to maintain, monitor, and optimize web accessibility are ongoing. Digital content is constantly evolving, and our team is dedicated to consistently updating the Website to meet higher standards. While we strive to make the Website as accessible as possible, some issues may occasionally be encountered as the range of assistive technologies is wide, varied, and constantly changing. We appreciate your understanding as we work continuously to improve your digital experience.

Conformance Standards

To accomplish our accessibility goals, we strive to design and maintain our Website in conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 AA Level, which is recognized as the international standard measure of success. Aligning with these guidelines helps bring our Website into conformance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 and other relevant accessibility regulations.

Accessibility Features on Our Site

We use automated accessibility testing tools as well as manual reviews to identify areas that need improvement. Here are some of the features we actively address to ensure our site is accessible to all:

• Improved Site Structure: We utilize appropriate titles, labels, and heading structures to help users navigate our pages smoothly with assistive technology.
• Keyboard Access: The content we build is intended to be fully navigable and operational using only a keyboard.
• Text Equivalents: Alternative text (Alt text) is applied to appropriate images and non-text visual elements to convey equivalent information to screen readers.
• Site Consistency: We use repeated navigational mechanisms to achieve a predictable and consistent user experience across the entire site.

Using the Accessibility Widget

To further enhance your experience, this Website utilizes the UserWay Free Web Accessibility Widget. This software allows our site to improve its compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.2).

How to open the widget: The accessibility menu can be enabled by clicking the accessibility menu icon that appears on the corner of the page. After triggering the menu, please wait a moment for the accessibility menu to load in its entirety.
