How it works · Stay Out of Legal Trouble
The same checks a complaint would put your site through.
Canadian law now expects websites to work for people with disabilities — those using screen readers, keyboards or voice. We run the exact checks an investigator would, fix what fails, and document it. Click any numbered point on the sample page to see what we look for.
What the law checks Protected once fixed
Click a numbered marker on the page, or an item on the right.
1 · Image descriptions
Every meaningful image needs a short written description so screen readers can say what it shows. (This is “alt text” — the words a blind visitor’s software reads aloud in place of a picture.) We add or fix them across your site.
2 · Heading order
Headings have to run in a logical order, like a table of contents, so people using a screen reader can find their way around. We correct pages where headings are used just to make text big.
3 · Colour contrast
Light-grey-on-white text that looks stylish can be unreadable for many people. We check every text colour against the legal contrast minimum and adjust what falls short.
4 · Form labels
Every box on a form needs a label that’s tied to it in the code, so screen-reader users know what to type where. We fix forms where labels are missing or only visual.
5 · Keyboard use
Some people can’t use a mouse, so the whole site must work with the keyboard alone — and you must be able to see where you are on the page. We make sure every button and link can be reached and is clearly highlighted.
Protected & documented certificate
Once the checks pass, we publish an accessibility statement, keep monitoring for new issues, and give you dated documentation — the proof you’d want on file if anyone ever raised a complaint.
