Accessibility Statement for Location Scout Pro

Our Commitment to Accessibility

At Location Scout Pro, we are committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. We believe that everyone deserves equal access to information and services, regardless of their abilities.

We are continuously working to improve the accessibility of our website to comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA. These guidelines outline best practices for making web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, cognitive, motor, and speech impairments.

Our efforts to improve accessibility are ongoing, and we are always learning and adapting our practices to meet the evolving needs of our users. We welcome feedback on our website's accessibility and are committed to addressing any issues promptly.

Accessibility Features Implemented

We have implemented a variety of features to enhance the accessibility of our website, including:

• Semantic HTML: We use semantic HTML elements to structure our content, making it easier for screen readers and other assistive technologies to interpret the meaning and relationships between different parts of the page.
• Alternative Text for Images: All images on our website have descriptive alternative text (alt text) that provides a textual description of the image's content and purpose. This allows users who are unable to see the images to still understand their meaning. For example, the WAI-ARIA logo has the alt text "WAI-ARIA Accessibility Initiative Logo."
• Keyboard Navigation: Our website can be navigated entirely using a keyboard, allowing users who are unable to use a mouse or other pointing device to access all content and functionality.
• Sufficient Color Contrast: We have ensured that there is sufficient color contrast between text and background colors throughout our website, making it easier for users with low vision or color blindness to read the content.
• Clear and Consistent Navigation: Our website has a clear and consistent navigation structure, making it easy for users to find the information they are looking for. The main navigation is available on every page.
• Resizable Text: Users can easily resize the text on our website using their browser settings, making it easier to read for those with low vision.
• Forms with Accessible Labels: All form fields on our website have clear and descriptive labels that are associated with the corresponding input elements, making it easier for users with screen readers to understand what information is required.
• ARIA Attributes: We use ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes to provide additional information to assistive technologies about the roles, states, and properties of interactive elements on our website.
• Skip Navigation Link: A "skip to main content" link is provided at the top of each page, allowing users to bypass the navigation menu and jump directly to the main content.
• Responsive Design: Our website is designed to be responsive, meaning it adapts to different screen sizes and devices, including desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones. This ensures that users can access our content regardless of the device they are using.
• Dark Mode: We provide a dark mode option for users who prefer a darker color scheme, which can reduce eye strain and improve readability in low-light conditions.

Ongoing Accessibility Efforts

We are committed to continuously improving the accessibility of our website. Our ongoing efforts include:

• Regularly auditing our website for accessibility issues using automated testing tools and manual reviews.
• Providing accessibility training to our staff.
• Incorporating accessibility considerations into our website design and development processes.
• Seeking feedback from users with disabilities and using their input to improve our website's accessibility.
• Staying up-to-date with the latest accessibility standards and best practices.

Known Limitations

Despite our best efforts, some accessibility issues may still exist on our website. We are aware of the following potential limitations:

• Some older documents may not be fully accessible. We are working to remediate these documents or provide alternative formats upon request.
• Third-party content or plugins may not be fully accessible. We are working with our vendors to ensure that their products are accessible.
• Live video streams may not have captions. We are exploring options for providing captions for live video streams in the future.

We are committed to addressing these limitations and making our website as accessible as possible.
