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.
