Our Commitment to Accessibility
Kids Swim OC is committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to all visitors, including people with disabilities. We believe that everyone deserves equal access to information about our swim lessons and services, regardless of ability or the technology they use to browse the web.
We strive to provide a website experience that is perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust for all users.
Accessibility Standard
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities, including those with visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, and neurological disabilities.
Ongoing Improvements
Accessibility is an ongoing effort. We regularly review our website and work to identify and address accessibility barriers. Our efforts include:
- Using semantic HTML to support screen readers and assistive technologies
- Providing descriptive alternative text for images
- Ensuring sufficient color contrast between text and background
- Making all interactive elements keyboard-navigable
- Designing forms with clear labels and error messages
- Testing with common assistive technologies and browsers
We recognize that accessibility is a continuous process and that our website may not yet fully meet all WCAG 2.2 Level AA criteria. We are actively working to close any gaps.
Third-Party Content
Our website may include content, tools, or links provided by third parties, such as embedded maps, social media widgets, or external booking tools. We do not control the accessibility of third-party content and cannot guarantee that it meets the same accessibility standards as our own website. We encourage third-party providers to meet WCAG 2.2 Level AA standards and will seek accessible alternatives where possible.
