Accessibility

Accessibility statement.

We target WCAG 2.2 Level AA across stredgepartners.co. We do not claim conformance: the site is assessed against that target, and the assessment so far is automated testing plus a manual keyboard pass. No screen-reader testing has been performed.

Standard targeted
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) WCAG 2.2, Level AA. The target applies to every route served under stredgepartners.co.
Conformance status

Conformance is not claimed. The site is assessed against WCAG WCAG 2.2 Level AA; it has not been certified as conformant. The assessment of record was carried out on 6 August 2026 and covers every route listed in sitemap.xml, in both English and French.

The evidence to date is automated testing plus a manual keyboard pass. Automated tooling cannot detect a large part of WCAG — it did not detect either of the two defects found by manual review in this cycle: moving content without a pause control (SC 2.2.2) and duplicated content exposed to assistive technology. Both were fixed. Until a screen-reader pass is performed, no substantial-conformance claim is made.

How this was tested
  • Automated: axe-core 4.12.1 driven by Playwright 1.61, run against every route listed in sitemap.xml, in both English and French on each build (WCAG 2.0/2.1/2.2, levels A and AA). It reports 0 serious and 0 critical violations — an automated result only, not a conformance finding.
  • Automated: a dedicated contrast harness that paints each foreground/background pair and measures the rendered pixels, rather than trusting computed colour values.
  • Manual, keyboard: performed. A keyboard-only pass covering the header, the mobile drawer (focus trapped, Escape returns focus to the trigger), the standing-facts pause control, the decision scorer and all four forms.
  • Manual, screen reader: not performed. No assistive-technology pass (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver or otherwise) has been carried out against this site, so screen-reader output is untested.
Known limitations
  • Podcast captions and transcripts. Of the 16 published STREDGECAST episodes, 0 carry captions and 0 carry a published transcript. This is a current failure of SC 1.2.2 (Captions) and SC 1.2.3 (Audio Description or Media Alternative). Captions and transcripts are being prepared; progress is reported at the next review below.
  • Downloadable and printed specimen sheets are laid out for print; their reading order is verified, but reflow at very small sizes is limited.
  • Screen-reader output is untested, and automated testing cannot certify it. Any claim about assistive-technology behaviour on this site would be unevidenced.
