Accessibility Statement
Our commitment to making TechSpecs usable by everyone, the standards we follow, and how to report an accessibility barrier.
TechSpecs is committed to making our content usable by as many people as possible, including those who rely on assistive technologies. We treat accessibility as part of building the site well - an ongoing effort, never an afterthought.
WCAG 2.1, Level AA
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA - the widely adopted benchmark for making web content more perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust for everyone, whatever device or assistive technology they use.
How we put that into practice
Accessibility shows up in the day-to-day decisions we make about structure, colour, and interaction across the whole site.
Semantic structure
Pages use proper headings, landmarks, and lists so screen readers can navigate and skim them.
Keyboard access
Every interactive element is reachable and operable with a keyboard, with a clearly visible focus state.
Colour & contrast
Body text and meaningful UI meet AA contrast, and you can switch between a light and dark theme.
Text alternatives
Images that carry information include descriptive alt text so nothing is lost without sight.
Responsive & scalable
Content reflows and stays readable when zoomed or viewed on small screens, without horizontal scrolling.
Reduced motion
We honour your operating-system “reduce motion” preference and keep animation subtle and optional.
Known limitations
We’re not perfect yet. Some older content predates our current standards, and embedded third-party material or advertising served by partners may not fully meet our target. Where a third-party component falls short, we look for an accessible alternative - and we’re continually reviewing and improving the site.
