Standard Beagle’s web accessibility commitment means that we are dedicated to ensuring that all users, including those with disabilities who rely on assistive technologies like screen readers, screen enlargement software, or alternative input devices, can fully access and navigate our website.

Ongoing efforts to uphold our web accessibility commitment

We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1 as our standard for determining accessibility. These internationally recognized guidelines provide a comprehensive framework for making content accessible to all users. As we add new pages and features to our website, we ensure that all designs, code, and content practices comply with these standards as part of our web accessibility commitment.

Website accessibility is an ongoing process. We perform regular accessibility audits to assess our website’s compliance with WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards and make any necessary improvements. Our team uses a variety of industry-standard tools for testing, including the Accessibility Checker WordPress Plugin, color contrast analyzers, keyboard-only navigation techniques, and Flesch-Kincaid readability assessments. We are dedicated to meeting or exceeding accessibility standards as part of our ongoing web accessibility commitment.
