Accessibility Statement
This statement follows current U.S. Department of Justice guidance on web accessibility while avoiding an unsupported claim of certified WCAG conformance.
1. Accessibility approach
Demeric Forge aims to provide a website that is usable by a broad range of visitors. Accessibility considerations can include readable contrast, text resizing, logical headings, keyboard navigation, clear labels, alternative text and responsive layouts.
2. U.S. Department of Justice guidance
The U.S. Department of Justice states that the ADA's nondiscrimination and effective communication requirements apply to goods and services offered by businesses open to the public, including through websites. The Department also identifies accessibility standards such as WCAG as useful technical guidance. The exact legal obligations for a particular private business depend on its facts and applicable law.
3. No unverified conformance claim
This statement does not claim that the website has passed an independent WCAG audit or achieved a particular conformance level unless such an audit and result have actually occurred. Accessibility is treated as an ongoing process rather than a one-time certification.
4. Keyboard navigation
Where practical, core navigation and interactive controls should be usable without requiring a pointing device. Logical control order and visible focus behavior support visitors who use keyboards or assistive technology.
5. Text and visual presentation
Readable typography, adequate contrast, flexible text sizing and avoidance of unnecessary visual clutter can improve usability for visitors with low vision, color-vision differences or cognitive disabilities.
6. Forms and status messages
Forms should use understandable labels and required-field information. Error and success states should communicate whether an action has been completed without relying only on color.
7. Third-party content
Some parts of a website may depend on third-party platforms, applications, embedded content or services that Demeric Forge does not fully control. Accessibility behavior of those components can vary and may change after updates.
8. Reporting a problem
If a visitor experiences difficulty accessing information or using a feature, the contact information below may be used to identify the page, feature and nature of the problem. Browser, device and assistive technology details can be helpful when available.
9. Alternative assistance
When practical, information may be provided in another reasonable format if a visitor cannot access a particular part of the website. Availability depends on the requested information and the nature of the issue.
