ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT

Our Commitment

We believe that everyone, regardless of ability, should have equal access to our website, information, and services. We are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience and are actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of our website.

Our accessibility efforts are ongoing, and we continually seek solutions to bring all areas of our site to the same level of overall web accessibility.

California Law Compliance

Unruh Civil Rights Act: Under California's Unruh Civil Rights Act (Civil Code § 51), all persons are entitled to full and equal accommodations, advantages, facilities, privileges, or services in all business establishments. California courts have recognized that the ADA's accessibility requirements apply to websites of businesses operating in California. We are committed to ensuring our website provides equal access to all users.

California Government Code § 11135: While this statute primarily applies to state-funded programs, we voluntarily adopt its accessibility principles to ensure our services are available to all California residents without discrimination.

Damages and Remedies: We take accessibility compliance seriously. Under the Unruh Act, individuals may be entitled to actual damages plus statutory damages of at least $4,000 per violation for intentional discrimination. Our goal is to proactively identify and remediate any accessibility barriers to ensure equal access for all users.

Conformance Status

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards established by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities and more user-friendly for everyone.

WCAG 2.2 Level AA compliance means that our website is:

• Perceivable - Information and user interface components must be presentable to users in ways they can perceive
• Operable - User interface components and navigation must be operable
• Understandable - Information and user interface operation must be understandable
• Robust - Content must be robust enough to be interpreted reliably by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies

Accessibility Features

Our website includes the following accessibility features:

• Semantic HTML5 markup for proper document structure and navigation
• Alternative text (alt text) for all meaningful images and visual content
• Full keyboard navigation support throughout the website
• Sufficient color contrast ratios (minimum 4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text) for readability
• Responsive design that works across different devices, screen sizes, and orientations
• Clear and consistent navigation structure throughout the site
• Descriptive and meaningful link text
• Proper heading hierarchy (H1-H6) for content organization
