Accessibility

Compliance Status

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to
anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the
widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.

To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web

Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at
the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to
people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps
us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with
motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.

This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as
accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that
allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user
interface) and design it to their personal needs.

Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the
background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application
remediates the website’s HTML, adapts its functionality and behavior for
screen-readers used by blind users, and for keyboard functions used by
individuals with motor impairments.

Screen-Reader and Keyboard Navigation

Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet
Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to
ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader
enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-
Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s
how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader
requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:

1. Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns
the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing
compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide
screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For
example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable
icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation
guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal
dialogues (popups), and others.

Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images
and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based
description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not
described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image,
using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on
screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the
Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic
announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they
enter the website.

These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers,
including JAWS and NVDA.

2. Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also
adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using
JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This
includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab
keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc,
trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and
checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the
Spacebar or Enter key.

Additionally, keyboard users will find quick navigation and content-skip
menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first element of
the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as
soon as they appear, and not allow the focus to drift outside of it.

Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F”
(forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

Disability profiles supported on our website

Epilepsy Safe Profile: this profile enables people with epilepsy to use
the website safely by eliminating the risk of seizures that result from
flashing or blinking animations and risky color combinations.
Vision Impaired Profile: this profile adjusts the website so that it is
accessible to the majority of visual impairments such as Degrading
Eyesight, Tunnel Vision, Cataract, Glaucoma, and others.
Cognitive Disability Profile: this profile provides various assistive
features to help users with cognitive disabilities such as Autism, Dyslexia,
CVA, and others, to focus on the essential elements more easily.
ADHD Friendly Profile: this profile significantly reduces distractions and
noise, to help people with ADHD and Neurodevelopmental disorders
browse, read, and focus on the essential elements more easily.
Blind Users Profile (Screen-readers): this profile adjusts the website to
be compatible with screen-readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver,
and TalkBack. A screen-reader is installed on the blind user’s computer,
and this site is compatible with it.
Keyboard Navigation Profile (Motor-Impaired): this profile enables
motor-impaired persons to operate the website using the keyboard Tab,
Shift+Tab, and the Enter keys. Users can also use shortcuts such as “M”
(menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to
jump to specific elements.

Additional UI, design, and readability adjustments

Font adjustments – users can increase and decrease its size, change
its family (type), adjust the spacing, alignment, line height, and more.
Color adjustments – users can select various color contrast profiles
such as light, dark, inverted, and monochrome. Additionally, users can
swap color schemes of titles, texts, and backgrounds, with over 7
different coloring options.
Animations – epileptic users can stop all running animations with the
click of a button. Animations controlled by the interface include videos,
GIFs, and CSS flashing transitions.
Content highlighting – users can choose to emphasize important
elements such as links and titles. They can also choose to highlight
focused or hovered elements only.
Audio muting – users with hearing devices may experience headaches
or other issues due to automatic audio playing. This option lets users
mute the entire website instantly.
Cognitive disorders – we utilize a search engine that is linked to
Wikipedia and Wiktionary, allowing people with cognitive disorders to
decipher meanings of phrases, initials, slang, and others.
Additional functions – we provide users the option to change cursor
color and size, use a printing mode, enable a virtual keyboard, and many
other functions.

Assistive technology and browser compatibility

We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as
possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few
limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to
support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share
including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft
Edge, JAWS, and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC
users.

Notes, comments, and feedback

Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their
needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in
the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological
solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our
accessibility, adding, updating, and improving its options and features, and
developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the
optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. If you wish
