We firmly believe that the internet should be accessible to everyone and are committed to providing an inclusive experience for all, regardless of ability.
To achieve this, we adhere to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines help make web content accessible to people with various disabilities, ensuring accessibility for individuals with visual, motor, cognitive, and other impairments.
This website utilizes various technologies to enhance accessibility at all times, including an accessibility interface that enables users with specific needs to adjust the website’s UI and personalize their experience.
The website also includes an AI-based application that continuously enhances its accessibility, optimizing for screen readers and keyboard navigation for those with motor impairments.

Screen Reader and Navigation Assistance
Our website implements ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes along with various behavioral adjustments to ensure compatibility with screen readers. When a screen reader user visits the site, they receive a prompt to enable the Screen Reader Profile for optimized browsing. Here’s how the website meets screen reader requirements:
Screen Reader Optimization: We continuously monitor and update the website’s components to provide meaningful data to screen readers through ARIA attributes. For instance, we add accurate form labels, descriptions for actionable icons, validation guidance, and appropriate roles for elements like buttons and menus.
Additionally, an AI-based background process scans all images on the website, providing text-based descriptions where needed. Users can activate screen-reader adjustments by pressing the Alt+1 keyboard combination.
- These adjustments are compatible with popular screen readers, such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack.
Keyboard Navigation Optimization: The background process also enhances keyboard operability, including navigation with Tab and Shift+Tab keys, dropdown management, closing pop-ups with Esc, activating buttons with Enter, and navigating radio and checkbox elements with arrow keys.
Keyboard users can access content-skip menus by pressing Alt+2 or by focusing on a primary site element with the keyboard. Focus is automatically shifted to popups when they appear to prevent interaction outside them.
- Keyboard shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) help users jump to specific sections.
