Accessibility Statement
Our Commitment to Accessibility
We are actively working to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA, developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines are designed to make web content more accessible for people with a variety of disabilities, including vision, hearing, motor, and cognitive impairments.
Our goal is to ensure all users—regardless of ability—can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with our website effectively.
What We’re Doing
To support digital accessibility:
We’ve partnered with a professional third-party Accessibility Consultant to audit our website using both automated tools and manual reviews.
We are making permanent, code-level improvements to enhance compatibility with assistive technologies such as screen readers (JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver) and keyboard-only navigation.
We are not relying solely on automated overlays or widgets—our approach focuses on long-term, sustainable accessibility built into the structure of our site.
Our Accessibility Standards
We strive to ensure our website is:
Perceivable: Information and user interface components are presented in ways that users can perceive.
Operable: User interface components and navigation are operable.
Understandable: Information and the operation of the user interface are understandable.
Robust: Content is robust enough to be interpreted reliably by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies.
Our website incorporates features such as:
Alternative text for images.
Proper heading structures for content organization.
Descriptive link texts.
Keyboard navigability.
Sufficient color contrast ratios.
Accessible forms with appropriate labels and instructions.
Ongoing Efforts
To maintain and improve accessibility:
We conduct regular audits using both automated tools and manual testing.
We collaborate with accessibility experts to identify and address potential barriers.
We provide training to our team on accessibility best practices.
We monitor advancements in accessibility standards to ensure ongoing compliance.

Compliance efforts are ongoing and absolute accessibility cannot be guaranteed. If regulations change or new best practices emerge, we will act promptly to maintain compliance.
