Accessibility

We want refind to be usable by everyone, including people who use a keyboard, a screen reader, magnification, or other assistive technology. Our target is the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA.

• Use automated accessibility testing while we build the site.
• Work to label form fields and controls so assistive technology can announce them, and to keep every control usable with a keyboard.
• Check text contrast against WCAG AA in every colour theme.
• Offer text-size and high-contrast settings (the “Aa” button), and respect your device’s reduced-motion and contrast settings.

Areas we know need improvement:

• Placeholder text inside some form fields may be lower contrast than the surrounding text.
• We have not yet tested by hand with screen readers such as NVDA or VoiceOver.
• Videos are embedded from YouTube; captions and player accessibility are provided by YouTube.

If something on refind is hard or impossible for you to use, please tell us through the contact form (choose “General” and mention “accessibility”). Include the page address and, if you can, the browser and assistive technology you use. Your feedback helps us decide what to improve.
