Accessibility Statement

Our Commitment to Accessibility

A11y Ledger is a platform built by and for accessibility professionals. We hold ourselves to the same standard we help our clients achieve: WCAG 2.2 Level AA conformance.

Conformance Status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) define requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. There are three levels of conformance: A, AA, and AAA.

Partially conforms with WCAG 2.2 Level AA

A11y Ledger partially conforms with WCAG 2.2 Level AA. Some parts of the content do not fully conform — refer to the known limitations section below for details. We are actively working to resolve these gaps.

Technical Specifications

A11y Ledger relies on the following technologies for conformance with WCAG 2.2:

  • HTML5
  • CSS (including ARIA landmark roles and live regions)

Known Limitations

Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility across the platform, some areas are still being improved. Known limitations include:

Drag and drop interactions

Some drag-and-drop features (e.g., reordering pages in an audit scope or reordering URLs in the deploy audit dialog) do not yet have a fully equivalent single-pointer or keyboard-only alternative. We are working to provide accessible ordering controls for all drag interactions.

Related criterion: WCAG 2.5.7 Dragging Movements (AA)

Complex data tables

Some audit issue tables may not fully communicate sort direction state changes to screen readers in all browser and AT combinations.

Related criterion: WCAG 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value (A)

Third-party components

A small number of UI components sourced from third-party libraries may not fully meet all WCAG 2.2 AA criteria. We evaluate and remediate these on a rolling basis.

Related criterion: Various

Assessment Approach

A11y Ledger assesses the accessibility of the platform through the following methods:

  • Self-evaluation: Our team conducts ongoing manual audits of new and existing features using screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, and browser zoom tools.
  • Automated scanning: We run automated accessibility checks as part of our development process to catch common violations early.
  • User feedback: We actively incorporate feedback from users with disabilities and accessibility professionals who use the platform daily.
