Chem-free SupportsWeb Accessibility
Our Measures to Support Accessibility
Include accessibility as a requirement for all web content.
- Content must meet WCAG 2.0 A and should meet AA as feasible.
- Assign clear accessibility goals and responsibilities.
- Ensure content authors have accessibility knowledge and skills.
Conformance Standards
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) standard defines requirements to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. “Fully conforms” means that the content meets all of the WCAG requirements at the specified Level without exceptions.
The Chem-free website is built to be compliant with WCAG 2.0 Level AA standards. Automated testing will be performed no fewer than 4 times/year to all major page templates. Any issues discovered as part of the automated testing protocol will be resolved as quickly as possible, but will not exceed 1 month.
