Our Commitment to Accessibility
We believe that websites should be accessible to everyone, regardless of disability. To uphold this commitment, we adhere to the following principles:
- Conformance to Standards: We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities. Conformance with these guidelines helps make the web more user-friendly for everyone.

- Continuous Improvement: We are committed to continually improving the accessibility of our website. We regularly review our website and email solutions to identify areas for improvement and implement necessary changes.
Our commitment to accessibility extends beyond the website itself. We also strive to ensure that our email solutions are accessible to users with disabilities. This includes providing options for customizing font sizes, colors, and other display settings.
Assistive Technologies
We design our website to be compatible with a wide range of assistive technologies, including:
- Screen Readers: Our website is designed to be compatible with popular screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver. We ensure that all essential content is properly labeled and structured for screen reader users.
- Screen Magnifiers: Users can magnify the content on our website without loss of functionality or readability.
- Voice Recognition Software: Our website is designed to be navigable using voice recognition software such as Dragon NaturallySpeaking.
- Keyboard Navigation: All interactive elements on our website are accessible via keyboard navigation. Users can navigate the site using the tab key, arrow keys, and other standard keyboard commands.
We regularly test our website with assistive technologies to ensure compatibility and identify any potential accessibility issues.
