Draft review / Accessibility statement

Accessibility statement — Draft for review

AI-assisted draft, not yet reviewed

Draft policy for founder review. Unresolved fields remain marked; this is not a statement of current practice.

We want people to use the site in the format that works for them. Our target is WCAG 2.2 AA. We have not shown that every page meets that standard.

What the audit found

Pages have text that works without JavaScript. The audit also found captions, keyboard controls and ways to reduce motion. Readers can choose a light version instead of 3D. We still need to test these features on the final release.

What needs work

Silent visuals need full text descriptions. Captions need checks in each language. Charts need labels or shapes, so color is not the only cue. We must test focus, contrast, touch controls and screen-reader order.

Text must remain usable if media cannot load. Spoken scripts should explain the key action on screen. A device voice does not replace readable text.

Test record

[VERIFY: test dates, pages/versions, devices, browsers, keyboard and screen-reader results]. We have not completed a formal report of access tests for these drafts. That report must show failures and untested parts as well as what works.

Get help

[FOUNDER TO SUPPLY: monitored contact and reply target]. Tell us which page or task failed and what format would help. You do not need to share a diagnosis. [FOUNDER TO SUPPLY: owner and dates for each fix].
