Our own conformance
Accessibility statement
We sell accessibility work. It would be absurd to publish a site that did not meet the standard we hold clients to, so here is exactly how this one was built, how it was tested, and what we know is still imperfect.
What we aim for
This site aims to conform to WCAG 2.2 Level AA — one version above the WCAG 2.1 Level AA the Title II rule requires. We say "aims to conform" deliberately. Accessibility is not a certificate you earn once; it is a property of every page you publish afterwards.
How it was tested
axe-core automated testing against every page, run on the built output rather than a dev server — 0 violations at last run.
Contrast computed arithmetically from the design tokens rather than judged by eye. Body text is black on white at 21:1; the two muted greys measure 8.86:1 and 5.33:1.
Manual keyboard traversal of every page, including the form and the skip link.
Heading order, landmarks and form labelling verified in the built HTML.
Known limitations
A statement with no limitations is a statement nobody tested. Ours, as of August 5, 2026:
Automated testing covers roughly a third of the WCAG success criteria. Our manual pass is thorough but it is not a substitute for testing with every assistive technology in use.
Decorative rules and separators sit below 3:1 against the background. They carry no information — structure is conveyed by the underlying markup — so WCAG 1.4.11 does not apply to them. We are telling you because we would rather you know we considered it than assume we missed it.
This site has not yet been audited by an independent third party.
Found a barrier?
Tell us and we will fix it. Not "log it" — fix it, and tell you what changed.
