Accessibility Features
Keyboard Navigation
Our website can be fully navigated using only a keyboard. All interactive elements are accessible via keyboard shortcuts and tab navigation, with clear focus indicators.
Screen Reader Support
We use semantic HTML, proper heading structures, and ARIA labels to ensure our content is properly interpreted by screen readers and other assistive technologies.

Visual Accessibility
Text Alternatives
All images, graphics, and non-text content include appropriate alternative text descriptions to convey their meaning to users who cannot see them.
Scalable Text
Text can be resized up to 200% without loss of functionality or content. We use relative units and responsive design to ensure readability at different zoom levels.
