We want everyone to be able to use Grow & Guard, including people who use assistive technology. This statement explains what we do, what we know still needs work and how to contact us.
The standard we aim for
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. We have checked the site ourselves, including automated accessibility checks, but we have not yet had an independent accessibility audit.
What we do
- Pages use headings, lists, tables and landmarks in a logical order, so screen readers can navigate them.
- A "Skip to content" link appears when you press Tab, and every link and button can be used with a keyboard.
- Text and buttons are designed to meet WCAG colour contrast levels, and you can zoom text to 200% without losing content.
- Images that carry meaning have text alternatives; decorative images are hidden from screen readers.
- Animations stop if your device is set to reduce motion.
- We write in plain English and explain technical terms.
- The site does not use autoplaying video or audio.
Known limitations
- Some wide comparison tables scroll sideways on small screens.
- Websites we link to, including providers' sites, are run by other companies and may not meet the same standard.
