Accessibility

Using this site.

We want this site to work for everyone who needs what we do, including people using a screen reader, a keyboard on its own, magnification, or speech input. This page says what we aim for, what we know is imperfect, and how to tell us when something gets in your way.

The standard we work to

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. That is the benchmark most commonly referenced for business websites in the United States, including under the Americans with Disabilities Act.

We are not claiming a formal certification, and we would rather say that plainly than imply an audit we have not had done. What we can say is what we have actually checked and fixed.

What we have done

  • Every meaningful image carries alternative text, and decorative graphics are hidden from assistive technology so they are not read out as noise.
  • Every form field has a label attached to it in the markup, not just placeholder text.
  • Text colours were measured against their backgrounds and adjusted where they fell below the 4.5:1 contrast ratio WCAG asks for.
  • Headings run in order without skipped levels, so a screen reader user can navigate a page by its structure.
  • Every page has a skip to content link and a main landmark, so you can get past the navigation without tabbing through it each time.
  • The whole site works by keyboard, and the focus outline is visible rather than styled away.
  • Animation is suppressed for anyone whose system is set to reduce motion.

What we know is not perfect

Two things are worth saying rather than hiding:

The interactive MeterSight demo is a data heavy dashboard with charts. The charts carry text descriptions, but a dense donut or bar chart is a poor experience with a screen reader no matter how it is labelled. If you want the same information in another form, ask us and we will send it as a plain table or a spreadsheet.

We have tested with automated tools and by keyboard. We have not had a full audit by a specialist using assistive technology day to day. That is a real limitation and it is why the next section matters more than this one.

We do not use an accessibility overlay

You will not find a floating accessibility button on this site. Overlay widgets that promise to make a site compliant automatically do not deliver that, and disabled users generally report they get in the way. We would rather fix the underlying markup.

Tell us if something blocks you

If any part of this site stops you doing what you came to do, please tell us. It is useful to know what page you were on and what you were using, but tell us in whatever way is easiest, we would much rather hear an incomplete report than none.

Email: jake@wasatchautomation.net
Phone: (801) 946-2710, Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 4:30pm Mountain Time

We aim to reply within two business days. If something on the site is blocking you, we will also get you the information another way in the meantime, by phone, by email, or however suits you, rather than making you wait for a fix.
