Accessibility

What we are aiming at

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1, Level AA, is the standard we design and build against. It is also what most procurement processes and most accessibility law in the United States, the United Kingdom and the EU point at.

We treat it as a floor rather than a finish line, and as something to design in from the first version rather than retrofit before launch.

What we do

On this site:

• Every page works from the keyboard alone, with a visible focus indicator
• Headings follow a real hierarchy, so screen reader users can navigate by structure
• Images carry text alternatives that describe what matters about them
• Text contrast meets or exceeds the AA ratio against its background
• All animation is disabled automatically when your system is set to reduce motion
• Layouts work from roughly 320px upward without horizontal scrolling
• Text can be resized to 200% without content being lost

Where we fall short

An honest statement is more useful than a claim of full compliance:

• This site has not been audited by an independent accessibility specialist. Our testing is our own.
• We have not completed a full screen reader pass across every page with every major assistive technology.
• Some case study imagery carries brief alternative text where a longer description would serve a screen reader user better.

These are on our list rather than accepted as permanent.

Tell us about a barrier

If something here stopped you, we want to know, and we would rather hear about it than not. Email contact@datarector.com with the page and what happened. We aim to respond within five working days and will tell you honestly whether and when we can fix it.

If you need information from this site in another format, ask and we will provide it.

Accessibility in what we build

For client projects, accessibility is part of the build rather than a line item you add. Where a project has a formal compliance requirement, such as Section 508, the ADA, or the European Accessibility Act, we will say up front what we can meet and recommend an independent audit before launch rather than certify our own work.
