Accessibility Statement
Our Commitment
Optimum Works is committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to all visitors, including people with disabilities. We strive to provide an inclusive online experience where everyone can browse our products, submit custom order requests, and access all site features with ease.
Conformance Standard
Our website conforms to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, the internationally recognized standard for web accessibility. We conduct regular accessibility audits combining automated testing, manual code review, keyboard navigation testing, and screen reader evaluation to maintain this level of conformance.
What We Do
Our site is built with accessibility in mind from the ground up. Key features include:
- Semantic HTML structure with proper heading hierarchy and landmark regions
- Full keyboard navigation support across all pages and interactive elements
- Descriptive text alternatives for all meaningful images and icons
- Visible focus indicators on all interactive elements
- Sufficient color contrast ratios throughout the site
- Clear, descriptive form labels with actionable error messages
- A "Skip to main content" link on every page
- Responsive design that works at up to 400% zoom without loss of content
- Compatibility with screen readers, voice control, and other assistive technologies
Third-Party Content
Our site uses some third-party widgets, including our chat tool and customer review system. While we do not directly control the code of these components, we monitor them for accessibility and work with vendors to improve compliance. Primary site functionality, including product browsing, the custom order process, and account management, does not depend on any third-party widget.
Checkout
Our checkout experience is hosted and maintained by Shopify, which manages its own accessibility conformance independently.
