Accessibility Statement
The Ref Page is designed to make reference information and practical tools easy to find, understand, and use across different devices and methods of navigation.
On This Page
Our Approach
Accessibility is considered as part of the design and development of The Ref Page. The site uses structured HTML, visible keyboard focus states, responsive layouts, readable typography, and interface controls designed to work without relying only on a mouse or touch input.
We aim to improve accessibility as the site grows and as new reference pages, calculators, converters, and other interactive tools are introduced.
Accessibility Features
Current accessibility features include:
- A skip link for moving directly to the main page content.
- Semantic headings and landmark elements for page structure.
- Keyboard-accessible navigation, buttons, forms, and controls.
- Visible focus indicators for interactive elements.
- Text labels or accessible names for interactive controls.
- Alternative text practices for meaningful images.
- Responsive layouts for desktop, tablet, and mobile screens.
- Light and dark themes with strong text and interface contrast.
- Support for reduced-motion preferences where motion is used.
Standards and Compatibility
The Ref Page aims to follow generally accepted web accessibility practices and uses the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines as a development reference, including WCAG 2.2 Level AA principles where practical.
The site is intended to work with current versions of major browsers and common assistive technologies. Results can vary depending on browser, operating system, device settings, extensions, and assistive software.
Third-Party Content and Services
Some parts of the site may rely on third-party services, libraries, embedded content, advertising systems, commercial links, or external websites. The Ref Page does not control the accessibility of third-party interfaces or external destinations.
We try to choose and implement third-party services in a way that does not unnecessarily interfere with access to the site's primary content.
Ongoing Improvements
Accessibility is an ongoing process. New pages and tools may introduce new interface patterns, and existing components may be adjusted as accessibility issues are identified.
We may update this statement as the site, its technology, or its accessibility practices change.
