Website Accessibility Policy:
The first & most important aspect, that sets apart from the majority of websites, of this website and how it is developed is that we are not utililizing many of the features, such as flash, animation, images, etc., that most other sites are primarily focused on. We utilize clean and validated code to achieve this. We strive to keep it simple and not utilize browser-sniffing or other techniques to figure out how to render our pages to the visitor. We design and code each page to assure maximum accessibility to all devices and to allow the user to control how our site is rendered through their own browser settings. We will also provide links to alternative page views for those who cannot control their browser settings or have alternative rendering devices.
We are aware of the types of adaptive technology used by people with disabilities and are designing pages across our portfolio of websites to ensure compatibility with as many of these systems as possible. Including keeping text clear, formatting layouts and tables, and making sure links adequately describe where they go.
We are developing our website to meet the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) Content Accessibility Guidelines set by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and we aim, wherever possible, to ensure we conform to Double-A standards if that is not technically possible we will maintain a minimum Level A Conformance Level. If you come across a part of our site that is difficult to use please tell us about it. We intend to keep improving our accessibility - so to help us do it, please send us your comments.
