Accessibility Statement
General Commitment
Afford Today is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards.
Conformance Status
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. Afford Today strives to conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA.
Measures Taken to Support Accessibility
Afford Today takes the following measures to ensure accessibility:
- Platform Standards: We utilize the Shopify platform, which provides built-in accessibility features for themes and checkout.
- Visual Design: We have implemented color combinations that meet required color contrast ratios and defined clear heading structures on all pages.
- Media: We provide alternative text (alt text) for images to support screen reader users.
- Navigation: We have ensured the site content is logical and navigable via keyboard for users who cannot use a mouse.
- Testing: We utilize accessibility wizards and tools to identify and fix potential barriers.
Partial Compliance & Third-Party Content
Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility of Afford Today, there may be some limitations. The accessibility of certain functionality depends on technologies that do not belong to our organization, but instead belong to Shopify and third-party application developers.
The following areas are affected by this:
- The Secure Checkout Process: Managed centrally by Shopify.
- Third-Party Widgets: Such as the "Rewards" popup and other external apps, which may have limited customization options for accessibility.
We monitor these third-party components and advocate for accessibility improvements with our providers.
