Daly Irish Roots is committed to making this website usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. Everyone deserves the chance to discover where their family came from.
Our standard
I aim for this website to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, the standard most widely used for web accessibility.
What I've done
- Text and buttons are designed with sufficient color contrast.
- The whole site can be used with a keyboard alone, with visible focus outlines and a "Skip to main content" link.
- Pages use proper headings and landmarks so screen readers can navigate them.
- Images have text descriptions, and decorative graphics are hidden from screen readers.
- Form fields have clear labels, and required fields are marked.
- Animations are turned off for visitors whose device is set to reduce motion.
- Pages work when zoomed up to 200% and on phones and tablets.
Ongoing effort
Accessibility is an ongoing commitment. I review the site when I make changes and welcome feedback. Some content I link to, such as archive and record websites run by others, is outside my control and may not be fully accessible.
