Accessibility Statement
Last updated: September 20, 2026
Accessibility is central to my work — this site is both a portfolio and a demonstration of the accessible engineering practices I offer. I want everyone to be able to use it, and I treat barriers reported here as bugs to fix.
Conformance target
The target for this site is WCAG 2.2 Level AA (opens in a new tab). The site is considered partially conformant: the main pages are built and reviewed against that target, but full conformance across every page has not been independently verified and work continues.
Measures in place
- Semantic landmarks and a skip-to-content link on every page
- Keyboard-operable navigation, menus, forms, and widgets, with visible focus indicators
- Reduced-motion support for visitors who prefer it (prefers-reduced-motion)
- A text-size toggle and light/dark themes for comfortable reading
- A captioned introduction video with a full text transcript alternative
- Form labels, validation messages, and error identification exposed to assistive technology
- Automated accessibility linting in the build pipeline plus manual keyboard and screen-reader review
Known limitations
- Some older or less-visited pages may still contain minor issues that review has not yet caught.
- Live project demos linked from this site are separate applications; their accessibility is covered by their own states of conformance, not this statement.
- Third-party content reached by external links is outside my control.
Feedback and accommodations
If you hit a barrier, need content in a different format, or want to discuss an accommodation, contact me at danspelt24@gmail.com or through the contact form. I aim to respond within a few business days.
Assessment and context
This statement is based on self-assessment combining automated checks with manual review. danspelt.com is a personal portfolio, not a public-sector body, so it is not currently a prescribed organization under the Accessible British Columbia Act — the commitment above is voluntary, and I hold it to the standard I apply to client work. My professional accessibility practice is described on the accessibility engineering page.
