Accessibility
Last updated January 2026
Our standard
We build toward WCAG 2.1 AA: semantic headings, meaningful alt text, visible focus states, keyboard-operable interactive elements, sufficient color contrast, and reduced-motion support for readers who prefer it.
Known limits
The interactive orientation map is a schematic diagram. It carries a descriptive label and every marker is reachable by keyboard, but the geography it conveys is also described in text on the pages that use it, so no information is map-only.
Tell us
If any page is difficult to use with a screen reader, keyboard, or magnification, write to us through the contact page and describe what happened. Accessibility reports are treated as corrections and prioritized accordingly.
