Accessibility Statement

Curated Grazing Co. is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability. We are actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of our website and in doing so adhere to many available standards and guidelines.

 

Accessibility Standard

This website endeavors to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. These guidelines outline four main principles that state that websites should be:

  1. Perceivable: Information and user interface components must be presentable to users in ways they can perceive.

  2. Operable: User interface components and navigation must be operable.

  3. Understandable: Information and the operation of user interface must be understandable.

  4. Robust: Content must be robust enough that it can be interpreted reliably by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies.

 

Measures to Support Accessibility

Curated Grazing Co. takes the following measures to ensure accessibility of our website:

  • Intentional Color Schemes: We have carefully selected color palettes with sufficient contrast ratios to ensure readability for users with low vision or color vision deficiencies.

  • Proper Navigation Links: Our website features clear and consistent navigation structures, making it easy for all users, including those using keyboard navigation or assistive technologies, to find the information they need.

  • Alternative Text for Images: All non-text content, such as images, includes descriptive alternative text (alt text). This allows screen readers to convey the meaning and purpose of the images to users who cannot see them.

  • Accessible Copywriting: We strive to write clear, concise, and easy-to-understand content, using plain language principles to benefit all users, including those with cognitive disabilities.

  • Quarterly Audits: We conduct quarterly accessibility audits of our website internally to ensure we are meeting all known standards and staying up to date with changes.

Applicable Laws and Policies

Curated Grazing Co. is committed to complying with applicable laws and policies regarding web accessibility. These may include:

  • Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA): While primarily focused on physical spaces, the ADA's principles of non-discrimination extend to online services and websites in the United States.

  • Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act (CADA): This Colorado state law prohibits discrimination based on disability in public accommodations, which can be interpreted to include online services.

  • City of Fort Collins Policies: While we are not aware of specific local Fort Collins policies mandating web accessibility for all businesses, we align our practices with broader accessibility principles to ensure inclusivity for all residents and visitors.

 

We view accessibility as an ongoing effort and are dedicated to regularly reviewing and improving our website to ensure equal access for everyone.
