Accessibility Statement

Our commitment

WhatCanHelp.com is a tool for finding assistive technology, so a site that works well with it matters to us. We aim for WCAG 2.1 Level AA and fix accessibility problems as we find them or hear about them. We haven't gotten everything right — if something doesn't work for you, we want to know.

This page describes what we aim for and where we are now. Accessibility is ongoing work, and we expect to keep improving as we hear from the people who use the site.

What we've done so far

• Semantic HTML throughout — proper headings, landmarks, and ARIA labels
• Keyboard navigable — all interactive elements are reachable and operable via keyboard
• Tested with VoiceOver on the core flows (browse, intake, product detail, report)
• Automated checks (axe-core) run on key pages with every change, to catch common issues early
• Color contrast aims to meet WCAG AA (4.5:1 for text, 3:1 for large text)
• Skip-to-content link for keyboard users
• No autoplay media, no flashing content
• Responsive design that works across devices and zoom levels
• Visible focus indicators on interactive elements
• Adjustable text size, line spacing, theme, and reduced-motion preference in the Settings menu

Known limitations

We have not yet completed a third-party WCAG audit. The intake and product detail flows are written in vanilla JavaScript and rendered client-side; if JavaScript is disabled, parts of the site will not function. We are working on broader screen-reader testing beyond VoiceOver (NVDA, JAWS, TalkBack).
