Accessibility on This Site

This site is built to meet WCAG 2.2 Level AA. Every page is checked automatically for contrast, keyboard focus, heading order, landmark structure, touch-target size, and horizontal overflow at phone, tablet, and desktop widths before it ships.

What the Standard Covers

• A skip-navigation link on every page, so a keyboard or screen-reader user can jump past the menu.
• One main landmark per page, with all content inside a landmark region.
• Link text that says where the link goes, never "click here".
• Pinch zoom is never disabled.
• A distinct, visible focus ring on every interactive element.
• Touch targets of at least 44 by 44 pixels.
• Text and interface colors that clear the 4.5 to 1 contrast threshold.
• Motion respects the operating system's reduced-motion setting.
• Documents published as scanned images are given a real text layer, so they can be read aloud and searched.
