Our Commitment to Accessibility

At Aperture Studios, we are dedicated to providing a website and digital content that is accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. We believe that everyone deserves equal access to information and services, regardless of their abilities. We are committed to continually improving the user experience for all visitors and adhering to the relevant accessibility standards.

We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, which outlines best practices for making web content more accessible to people with disabilities. These guidelines address a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, cognitive, motor, and speech impairments. Our commitment to accessibility extends beyond our website to include all of our digital content, such as videos, documents, and social media posts.

Our accessibility efforts are guided by Sarah Chen, our dedicated Accessibility Officer, who works closely with our development and content creation teams to ensure that accessibility is integrated into every aspect of our online presence. Sarah can be reached at sarah.chen@aperturestudios.com or (206) 555-0123 for any accessibility-related inquiries.

Accessibility Features

We have implemented various accessibility features on our website to ensure a positive and inclusive user experience. These features include:

  • Alternative Text for Images: All images on our website have descriptive alternative text (alt text) that conveys the content and function of the image to users who are unable to see it. This is crucial for users who rely on screen readers.
  • Keyboard Navigation: Our website is fully navigable using a keyboard, allowing users who cannot use a mouse or other pointing device to access all content and functionality.
  • Clear and Consistent Navigation: We have designed our website with a clear and consistent navigation structure to help users easily find the information they are looking for.
  • Sufficient Color Contrast: We have ensured that there is sufficient color contrast between text and background colors to make the content readable for users with low vision or color blindness.
  • Resizable Text: Users can easily resize the text on our website without losing content or functionality. This can typically be achieved using browser settings.
  • Descriptive Links: All links on our website have descriptive text that clearly indicates the destination of the link.
  • Video Captions and Transcripts: All of our videos are captioned and include transcripts to make them accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing. Captions are synchronized with the audio to provide a clear and accurate representation of the spoken content.
  • ARIA Attributes: We use ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes to enhance the accessibility of interactive elements on our website, providing additional information to assistive technologies.
  • Forms with Clear Labels: All forms on our website have clear and descriptive labels to help users understand the purpose of each field.
  • Consistent Heading Structure: We use a consistent heading structure (H1-H6) to organize content and make it easier for users to navigate and understand the information.
  • Dark Mode Support: Users can toggle between light and dark themes to customize their viewing experience and reduce eye strain.

We continuously monitor our website and digital content to identify and address any accessibility issues. We also conduct regular accessibility audits to ensure that we are meeting the latest standards and best practices.
