Accessibility Statement

Our Commitment

As a consulting team building accessibility tooling, we hold ourselves to the same standards we promote in client work and in Core Scanner. Core Accessibility is committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to people with disabilities. We aim to conform to WCAG 2.2 Level AA and continuously improve the user experience for everyone.

Conformance Status

We target WCAG 2.2 Level AA conformance for this website. We regularly audit our own site using the same combination of manual and automated testing methods we apply to client projects.

Measures We Take

Core Accessibility takes the following measures to ensure accessibility:

• Semantic HTML: We use proper heading hierarchy, landmark regions, and semantic elements throughout the site
• Keyboard navigation: All interactive elements are accessible via keyboard, with visible focus indicators
• Color contrast: Text and interactive elements meet or exceed WCAG 2.2 AA contrast requirements (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text)
• Text alternatives: All meaningful images include descriptive alt text; decorative images are hidden from assistive technology
• Responsive design: Content adapts to different screen sizes and supports up to 200% text zoom without loss of content or functionality
• Skip navigation: A skip link allows keyboard users to bypass the navigation and jump to main content
• Motion sensitivity: Animations respect the user's prefers-reduced-motion setting

Testing Methods

We test this website using:

• Automated scanning with Core Scanner
• Manual keyboard navigation testing
• Screen reader testing with VoiceOver (macOS) and NVDA (Windows)
• Browser zoom testing at 200% and 400%
• Color contrast verification with the WCAG contrast checker
