ACCESSIBILITY POLICY
At Fairware, we are committed to ensuring equal access and opportunities for all individuals, including those with disabilities. We strive to adhere to the highest accessibility standards set forth by organizations such as B Corporation to create an inclusive and welcoming environment for everyone.
Accessibility Standards
Our accessibility policies are guided by the principles and standards outlined by B Corporation and other relevant accessibility guidelines, such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1. We are dedicated to making our digital platforms, products, and services accessible to individuals of all abilities, including those with visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive impairments.
We are committed to fostering a culture of accessibility awareness and continuous improvement within our organization. For more information on our commitments to accessibility and inclusion – check out our Impact Report.
Website Accessibility
Our website is designed and developed to be accessible to all users. We are committed to ensuring that our website complies with WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards, including but not limited to:
- Providing alternative text for non-text content such as images and multimedia.
- Ensuring compatibility with screen readers and assistive technologies.
- Offering keyboard navigation and focus order for ease of use.
- Implementing clear and consistent navigation structures.
- Providing options for adjusting text size and contrast.
- Accessible Communication
Adjusting your Browser Settings
We recommend that users keep their browsers up-to-date to take advantage of new technologies. You can change some of the options in your Internet browser and, using the latest version of Internet Explorer, you will be able to:
- alter the colour of most text (but not images)
- alter the background colour (black text on a yellow background gives the most contrast)
- alter the line length by changing the size and shape of your browser window
- override the colour schemes of this website and others with your preferred settings
For Google Chrome users, you may add accessibility extensions:
- Caret Browsing (navigate using your keyboard)
- Color Enhancer (adjust webpage colours)
- High Contrast (adjust or remove colours)
- Long Descriptions in Context Menu (see long descriptions)
Go to the help center for a full list of extensions on the page Accessibility on Chrome. You may also refer to the accessibility topic in your browser’s help section for details on how to change your browser settings.
