Accessibility Statement

Sidney Hearing is committed to providing a digital experience that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of ability or technology. We are actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of our website and, in doing so, adhere to many of the available standards and guidelines.
 

Our Commitment

To ensure a seamless experience for all, we strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with a wide array of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological disabilities.
 

Accessibility Features on Our Site

We have implemented several features to help users navigate our content:

  • Keyboard Navigation: Our website is designed to be navigated using only a keyboard.

  • Alternative Text: We provide "Alt-text" for functional images to describe their content to screen reader users.

  • Clear Hierarchy: We use proper heading structures (H1, H2, etc.) to make page layouts easy to understand.

  • Contrast & Readability: We aim for high-contrast color schemes and legible fonts to assist users with low vision.

  • Video Captions: Where possible, we provide captions or transcripts for multimedia content.
     

Assistive Technology Compatibility

Our website is designed to be compatible with standard assistive technologies, including:

  • Screen readers (such as NVDA, JAWS, and VoiceOver).

  • Screen magnifiers.

  • Speech recognition software.
     

Ongoing Improvement

Accessibility is an ongoing journey. We regularly review our site to identify and fix potential barriers. Please be aware that our website may link to third-party content (like maps or social media feeds) that we do not control, which may have different accessibility standards.
