Accessibility Statement
General
Access to any company’s website can be challenging for persons having certain disabilities. A person’s disability is often unique. What may work well for one person may cause difficulties for another person. Our company has made efforts to accommodate as many of our customers and potential customers as is reasonable given our size, resources, and knowledge of our customers, and potential customer’s needs.
When we say we want to make periods better for everyone, we mean everyone. We are committed to ensuring accessibility and inclusivity for all individuals who visit our website, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. We strive to provide an accessible and seamless user experience for everyone, in compliance with applicable accessibility laws and guidelines.
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Compliance: Our website is designed with accessibility principles in mind. We are striving to develop our website in line with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), which outline the generally accepted standards for website accessibility.
Accessibility Features:
Alternative Text: We have tried to provide descriptive alternative text for all non-text content on our website, such as images, to ensure that visually impaired users can understand the content through screen readers.
Keyboard Navigation: Our website can be navigated using the keyboard alone, allowing users who have mobility impairments or prefer keyboard-based navigation to access all features and information.
Clear and Consistent Layout: We have structured our website with a clear and consistent layout to enhance readability and provide a predictable user experience. Headings, paragraphs, and lists are appropriately used to facilitate easy navigation and comprehension.
Color Contrast: We have carefully chosen colors and ensured sufficient contrast between text and background to make the content readable for users with visual impairments or color blindness.
International Accessibility: We are based in the United States but serve customers worldwide. While we strive to meet the accessibility standards required in the United States, we understand that different countries may have additional or varying accessibility requirements. We are committed to working towards compliance with international accessibility standards to the best of our ability.
Ongoing Accessibility Efforts: We recognize that accessibility is an imperfect and ongoing process, and we are continuously working towards enhancing our website to make it accessible to all users. We regularly review our website to ensure compliance with accessibility standards and to address any identified issues promptly.
Third Party Applications: Our website may use third-party add-ons or “plug-ins” for certain functions. Although we select these with the goal of making our website easier to use, these may not work or may not work the same for every user and/or every type of disability. We do not have control over the structure of these plugins, and in some cases are unable to modify them to the extent that would accommodate every user of our website. We are not responsible for those elements that we do not control
