Accessibility Statement

Meadowhawk Franchise Consulting Inc. is committed to making our website usable by as many people as possible, including people who use assistive technology such as screen readers, screen magnification, voice control, or keyboard-only navigation. Accessibility is an ongoing effort, and we welcome feedback that helps us improve.

Conformance Target

We aim for this website to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA. WCAG defines requirements for making web content more accessible to people with disabilities, and more usable for everyone.

We have not commissioned a formal third-party audit against this standard, and we are not claiming full conformance — this is the standard we design and build against, and the sections below describe where we currently stand honestly, including what we know still falls short.

Measures We've Taken

• A visible "Skip to content" link on every page for keyboard users, so navigation doesn't have to be tabbed through on every visit
• A single, descriptive <h1> on every page and a logical heading structure beneath it
• A <main> landmark wrapping each page's primary content, and semantic HTML (nav, header, footer) throughout
• Descriptive alt text on all meaningful images, and decorative graphics hidden from assistive technology so they don't add noise
• Visible focus outlines on interactive elements for keyboard navigation
• Properly associated <label> elements on every form field on our contact form, not placeholder text standing in for a label
• Supports standard browser zoom (page text and layout reflow together up to 200%)

Known Limitations

We'd rather tell you what doesn't fully meet the standard yet than claim more than is true:

• The interactive graphic on our Services page (the compass showing our four commitments) has clickable regions on the illustration itself that are mouse-only. Every commitment is still fully reachable and operable with a keyboard or screen reader through the labeled buttons beside the graphic — the illustration's hotspots are a convenience, not the only way in — but they haven't been made keyboard-operable themselves.
• Color contrast has not been formally checked against every combination on the site with an automated or manual audit tool; our palette is designed to read clearly, but we haven't verified every instance meets the WCAG AA 4.5:1 (text) / 3:1 (large text and graphics) thresholds.
• We have not tested with actual screen reader software (such as VoiceOver, JAWS, or NVDA) end-to-end; our markup follows standard semantic and labeling practices, but hasn't been verified by a person using one of these tools.

If you encounter a barrier not listed here, please tell us — see Feedback below.
