Accessibility statement

Everyone reads
the same website.

This site targets WCAG 2.2 Level AA. Below is what that means in practice, the standards we hold ourselves to, our known limitations, and how to reach us if you spot something we've missed.

Our commitments

Six things we design into every page.

Keyboard-first navigation

Every interactive control — buttons, links, form fields, menus, the command palette — is reachable via keyboard alone. Focus states are visible and follow a predictable order.

Visible focus, high contrast

Focus rings meet WCAG 2.4.7. Text and interactive contrast targets 4.5:1 for body content and 3:1 for large text, in both light and dark themes.

Colour is never the only signal

Status indicators pair colour with an icon or text label. Regulatory-status chips, form validation, and stock indicators all communicate through more than one channel.

Reduced motion respected

The site's animation vocabulary (marquee, scroll-triggered reveals, molecular hero) is fully suppressed for visitors who set `prefers-reduced-motion: reduce`.

Semantic structure for screen readers

Every page uses a single H1, hierarchical headings, ARIA landmarks (nav, main, footer), and descriptive alt text on informational images. Decorative imagery is marked aria-hidden.

Assistive technology testing

The site is tested against NVDA on Windows and VoiceOver on macOS/iOS. Form flows are the primary focus of assistive-tech testing on every release.

Known limitations

What we haven't solved yet.

Honesty over aspiration — the following are current gaps we're either actively working on or willing to work around on request.

  • PDF whitepapers may not currently meet PDF/UA — accessible versions are provided on request through the contact form.
  • Third-party embeds (Google Maps on /contact, Cloudflare Turnstile on forms) inherit their vendor's accessibility posture; we monitor for regressions but cannot rewrite them.
  • The interactive globe on /global-presence provides all its data via a text-based regional breakdown further down the same page for users who prefer non-visual navigation.
