Accessibility Statement

Last updated November 2026.

We want every reader to be able to use these guides. The site is built toward the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. We have not had it independently audited, so we do not claim full conformance.

What we have done

• Semantic headings in order on every page, with a skip link to the main content.
• Every interactive element (menus, the definitions sheet, the guide gallery, tabs, the BAC explorer and the checklist) works with a keyboard and shows a visible focus outline.
• Text and controls are designed for at least WCAG AA color contrast.
• Animations respect your system's reduced motion setting, and a Reduce motion switch in the footer turns them off on this site. With motion off, every section becomes a plain, readable layout.
• The hero video is decorative, silent, and does not play when reduced motion is on.
• Forms have visible labels, clear error messages, and status messages announced to screen readers.
• Pages reflow to narrow screens without sideways scrolling, and text can be enlarged to 200 percent.

Known limitations

Machine translation through Google Translate may not read naturally and is provided for convenience only. Some decorative photographs carry empty alternative text on purpose.

Report a barrier

If something on the site is hard to use, please tell us through the general inquiry form with the page address and what happened. We will try to fix it.
