Accessibility Statement for Pixel Perfect Studios
Pixel Perfect Studios is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all users, including those with disabilities. We are continuously working to improve the accessibility of our website and digital content to provide a seamless and inclusive experience for everyone.
This accessibility statement outlines our ongoing efforts to adhere to accessibility standards and guidelines, and provides information on how to report accessibility issues you may encounter while using our website.
Our Commitment to Accessibility
We are dedicated to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability. We strive to meet or exceed the requirements of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA.
Our accessibility efforts include:
- Providing alternative text for images and other non-text content, ensuring screen readers can convey the meaning and purpose of visual elements.
- Ensuring sufficient color contrast between text and background, making it easier for users with low vision or color blindness to read content.
- Using clear and concise language to simplify content and improve comprehension for users with cognitive disabilities.
- Structuring our website with semantic HTML, using appropriate headings, lists, and other elements to create a logical and navigable structure for screen readers and other assistive technologies.
- Providing keyboard navigation, allowing users to access all website features and content using only a keyboard.
- Ensuring forms are accessible, with clear labels, instructions, and error messages, making it easier for users to complete forms independently.
- Using ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes to enhance the accessibility of dynamic content and interactive elements, providing additional information and context to assistive technologies.
- Regularly testing our website with assistive technologies, such as screen readers and keyboard navigation, to identify and address accessibility issues.
- Providing captions and transcripts for video and audio content, making it accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing.
- Maintaining a responsive design, ensuring our website adapts to different screen sizes and devices, providing a consistent and accessible experience across all platforms.
WCAG 2.1 Compliance
Pixel Perfect Studios aims to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. WCAG is an internationally recognized standard for web accessibility, developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). It defines how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities.
Our website is designed and developed with the following WCAG principles in mind:
- Perceivable: Information and user interface components must be presentable to users in ways they can perceive. This includes providing text alternatives for non-text content, providing captions and other alternatives for multimedia, creating content that can be presented in different ways (e.g., simpler layout) without losing information or structure, and making it easier for users to see and hear content.
- Operable: User interface components and navigation must be operable. This includes making all functionality available from a keyboard, providing users enough time to read and use content, avoiding content that causes seizures, and helping users navigate and find content.
- Understandable: Information and the operation of the user interface must be understandable. This includes making text readable and understandable, making content appear and operate in predictable ways, and helping users avoid and correct mistakes.
- Robust: Content must be robust enough that it can be interpreted reliably by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies. This includes maximizing compatibility with current and future user agents.
Use of ARIA Attributes
We use ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes to enhance the accessibility of our website, particularly for dynamic content and interactive elements. ARIA attributes provide additional information and context to assistive technologies, allowing them to better understand and interact with complex user interface components.
Examples of how we use ARIA attributes include:
- Using
aria-label
to provide descriptive labels for buttons and links that may not have clear text labels.
- Using
aria-describedby
to associate form fields with descriptive text or instructions.
- Using
aria-live
to announce updates to dynamic content, such as error messages or status updates, to screen reader users.
- Using
aria-expanded
and aria-controls
to indicate the state of expandable/collapsible elements, such as accordions and menus.
- Using
role
attributes to define the purpose and structure of custom user interface components, such as tabs and dialogs.
