ADA Accessibility Statement
Effective Date: June 2026 , Last Updated: June 2026
1. Our Commitment to Accessibility
Catrachos Sublimacion is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all users, including people with disabilities. We believe everyone should have equal access to information and functionality on our website, and we are actively working to improve the accessibility of our site.
2. Standards We Follow
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at the Level AA standard. These guidelines, developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), provide a widely recognized framework for making web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including:
- Visual impairments (blindness, low vision, color blindness)
- Hearing impairments (deafness and hard of hearing)
- Motor impairments (limited use of hands, inability to use a mouse)
- Cognitive and neurological impairments (learning disabilities, attention disorders)
3. Accessibility Features on Our Website
We have implemented the following accessibility features on our website:
- Semantic HTML — We use proper heading hierarchy, landmark regions, and semantic elements to ensure screen readers can navigate the site effectively.
- Alt text — Meaningful alt text is provided for images and visual elements where appropriate.
- Keyboard navigation — All interactive elements, including navigation menus, links, and buttons, are accessible via keyboard alone.
- Color contrast — We strive to maintain sufficient color contrast ratios for text and interactive elements to meet WCAG AA requirements.
- Focus indicators — Visible focus states are provided for keyboard users to track their position on the page.
- Responsive design — Our website is designed to work across all device sizes and can be zoomed up to 200% without loss of content or functionality.
- ARIA attributes — Where standard HTML elements are insufficient, we use ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) roles and attributes to enhance accessibility.
- Skip navigation — A skip-to-content link allows keyboard users to bypass repetitive navigation and go directly to the main content.
4. Known Limitations
Despite our best efforts, we acknowledge that some parts of our website may not yet be fully accessible. We are aware of the following potential limitations:
- Gallery images — Some portfolio images may have alt text that is descriptive but not exhaustive. We are working to improve image descriptions.
- Third-party embeds — Embedded content from third-party services (such as Calendly for scheduling) may not fully conform to WCAG 2.1 AA. We encourage users who encounter difficulties to contact us directly for assistance.
- Decorative animations — While we include
aria-hidden="true"on decorative elements, some visual animations may cause discomfort for users with vestibular disorders. Users can reduce motion through their operating system settings, and we respect theprefers-reduced-motionmedia query.
5. Assistive Technology Compatibility
We test our website with the following assistive technologies to ensure compatibility:
- Screen readers (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver)
- Screen magnification software
- Voice recognition tools
- Keyboard-only navigation
If you use an assistive technology not listed above and experience difficulty accessing our website, please let us know so we can investigate and address the issue.
6. Third-Party Content
Our website may contain links to or embed content from third-party websites and services (e.g., social media platforms, Calendly, Formspree). While we strive to ensure that the third-party services we use are accessible, we do not control their accessibility practices. We encourage you to review their accessibility statements for more information.
7. Ongoing Efforts
Accessibility is an ongoing process, and we are continuously working to improve. Our efforts include:
- Regular accessibility audits and testing using automated tools and manual reviews.
- Training our team on accessibility best practices and WCAG guidelines.
- Incorporating accessibility requirements into our web design and development process from the start.
- Monitoring user feedback and promptly addressing reported issues.
