Our Commitment to Accessibility

By Austin Whittall | Updated 11.Sep.2020.

We are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience.

Our goal is to improve and enhance the usability and accessibility of this website (www.fit-and-well.com) by adhering to the standards and guidelines of online inclusion and accessibility.

Digital Inclusion

At Fit-and-Well.com we are committed to making our website as accessible as possible to people with special needs.

We are constantly working towards improving the accessibility of our website to ensure we provide equal access to all of our users.

When we began developing this website we included principles of accessible design to enhance the accessibility of our website for users with disabilities. These principles include:

Enabling the ability to adjust the font size
Maintaining color and adequate contrast ratios for text, buttons, and website design
Adequate alternative texts for images
Tooltip link information. Pass your cursor over the following link: (hover over this link)
Providing information with ARIA attributes

Ongoing work

Our effort to provide a fully accessible website for all visitors is a continuous one. We test our site, check its performance, and monitor how it behaves. We have included different kinds of solutions to improve user expereince and will continue doing so as technology evolves

Guidelines

We have adopted as many as possible recommendations laid down by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 incorporating them into our website's design.

WCAG aims at making websites more accessible for people with disabilities and also helps to make them user friendly for all users.

The WCAG are best practices recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and they define three levels of accessibility, graded A, AA, and AAA respectively.

Our goal is to satisfy the Level AA guidelines.

Compliant code means that it will display correctly on current and future browsers.

Resizable Text

We have included a clickable button that allows you to increase or decrease the size of the text used on our webpage.

It is located on the upper left side of the page and is a pair of white-colored letters "T" inside a blue box.
