ACCESSIBILITY POLICY

We are committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone, and applying the relevant accessibility standards.

 

Measures to support accessibility

We take the following measures to ensure accessibility of our public-facing website:

  • Include accessibility as part of our mission statement.
  • Integrate accessibility into our procurement practices.
  • Include people with disabilities in our design personas.

 

Conformance status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Our endeavor is for our public-facing website to be conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA.

 

Additional accessibility considerations

Although our goal is WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance, we have also applied some Level AAA Success Criteria: Images of text are only used for decorative purposes. Re-authentication after a session expires does not cause loss of data.
