Accessibility Statement

Sew What? Inc. is committed to providing a fully accessible website experience for all users of all abilities, including those who rely on assistive technologies like screen readers, screen enlargement software, and alternative keyboard input devices to navigate the web.

Ongoing Efforts to Ensure Accessibility

We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.2 as our guiding principle for determining accessibility. These are internationally agreed-upon standards that cover a wide range of recommendations and best practices for making content useable. As we add new pages and functionality to our website, all designs, code, and content entry practices are checked against these standards.

Website accessibility is an ongoing process. We continually test content and features, and remediate any accessibility issues to ensure we meet or exceed the standards. Testing of our website is performed by our team members using industry-standard tools, color contrast analyzers, keyboard-only navigation techniques, and readability tests.

Accessibility Features On Our Website

The following is a list of items we have included in our website to improve its accessibility:

• Our website design has a mobile-responsive version with appropriately sized tap-targets.
• Our brand colors were intentionally selected for color contrast and meet AAA requirements, even for small text.
• Our website declares a language in the header.
• Structural markup to indicate expected section containers, headings, lists, and buttons has been provided to make our content more understandable and “skim-able” by all users, regardless of device.
• Forms are associated with labels and instructions on filling in forms are available, along with clearly understandable error states.
• A warning is provided before links open in a new tab or window.

Where We’re Improving

We continually test content and features for WCAG 2.2 Level AA compliance and remediate any issues to ensure we meet or exceed the standards. Where possible, we strive to meet AAA success criteria in addition to AA success criteria.

This is part of our broader effort to make everyone’s experience at Sew What? Inc. a welcoming and enjoyable one. Please note that while we make every effort to provide information accessible for all users, we cannot guarantee the accessibility of third party websites to which we may link.
