1. Standards We Aim to Meet

We design and develop https://violinplot.com with reference to:

• Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA as our primary target for conformance.
• Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Title III principles for places of public accommodation.
• Industry best practices for accessible design, development, and content creation.

2. Measures We Take to Support Accessibility

To uphold accessibility across our Website and services, Violin Plot:

• Integrates accessibility checks into design, content, and development workflows.
• Conducts periodic audits using automated testing and manual reviews with assistive technologies.
• Trains creators and developers on semantic HTML, ARIA usage, and inclusive content patterns.
• Requires new features and procured tools to be evaluated against WCAG 2.2 AA criteria.
• Maintains an internal issue-tracking process to log, prioritize, and remediate accessibility findings. You can report barriers at any time via adrian@violinplot.com.

3. Accessibility Features You Can Expect

Where reasonably possible, we implement:

• Structured, semantic HTML with appropriate headings, labels, and landmarks.
• Keyboard accessibility (focus order, visible focus, logical tab stops, skip links).
• Color contrast meeting or exceeding WCAG 2.2 AA guidelines and non-color cues for meaning.
• Alternative text for meaningful images and descriptive labels for controls.
• Forms with clear instructions, error identification, and suggestions for correction.
• Responsive layouts supporting reflow up to 400% zoom without loss of content or functionality.
• Accessible multimedia, including captions for most videos we publish and transcripts for spoken content when feasible.
• Reasonable timing and motion preferences; we avoid unexpected timeouts and honor reduced-motion settings where practicable.

4. Compatibility With Browsers and Assistive Technologies

We aim for compatibility with current versions of major browsers and assistive technologies, including:

• Screen readers (e.g., NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver)
• Browser zoom and reader modes
• Keyboard-only navigation
• Mobile accessibility (e.g., TalkBack, VoiceOver on iOS)
  If you experience compatibility issues, please let us know at adrian@violinplot.com so we can investigate.
