Entity Inc. is committed to providing a fully accessible website experience for all users of all abilities, including those who rely on assistive technologies like screen readers, screen enlargement software, and alternative keyboard input devices to navigate the web.
Ongoing efforts to ensure accessibility
We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1 as our guiding principle for determining accessibility. These are internationally agreed-upon standards that cover a wide range of recommendations and best practices for making content useable. As we add new pages and functionality to our website, all designs, code, and content entry practices are checked against these standards.
Website accessibility is an ongoing process. We continually test content and features for WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance and remediate any issues to ensure we meet or exceed the standards. Testing of our website is performed by our team members using industry-standard tools such as the Accessibility Checker WordPress Plugin, color contrast analyzers, keyboard-only navigation techniques, the NVDA screen reader, and Flesch-Kincaid readability tests.
Accessibility features on our website
The following is a list of items we have included in our website to improve its accessibility:
- Our website declares a language in the header;
- Our website is responsive to varying screen sizes;
- Skip navigation links have been provided on every page so that users may jump straight to the main content;
- Focusable elements have a visible outline when receiving focus, on dark and light backgrounds;
- Our brand colors have been selected to meet AA color contrast requirements;
- Structural markup has been used to indicate sections, headings, lists, links, buttons, etc. so that content is understandable and “skim-able” by all users, regardless of device;
- Responsive units such as rem have been used for text so that it responds to preferences set in the user’s browser or device;
- All images and other non-text elements have appropriate alternative text associated with them, including null alternative text for purely decorative elements;
- Tap targets are appropriately sized;
- Links that open in a new tab have a visual and assistive technology readable indicator.
Where we’re improving
In our efforts to bring our website up to standard, we are targeting the following areas:
- Training content creators in accessibility;
- Shifting focus to the previously focused element when a popup closes;
- Shifting focus on page scroll;
- Conducting more extensive accessibility testing.
This is part of our broader effort to make everyone’s experience at Entity Inc. a welcoming and enjoyable one. Please note that while we make every effort to provide information accessible for all users, we cannot guarantee the accessibility of third party websites to which we may link.
