Accessibility Statement

Our Commitment

C216 Beards is committed to making this website accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. We are continually working to improve the digital experience for all users and aim to meet WCAG 2.2 Level AA guidelines wherever technically possible.

We do not claim full legal ADA compliance or guaranteed conformance. Accessibility is an ongoing effort and we take all feedback seriously.

What We've Done

• Added a "Skip to main content" link on every page for keyboard users.
• Used semantic HTML landmarks: header, main, footer, nav, section.
• Ensured all pages have a single, descriptive h1 heading.
• Provided meaningful alt text for informational images; decorative images are hidden from screen readers.
• Added visible focus styles to all interactive elements (links, buttons, form fields).
• Respected the prefers-reduced-motion media query to disable non-essential animations.
• Ensured all external links are labelled as opening in a new tab.
• Added aria-label attributes where native text alone is insufficient.

Known Limitations

The following areas may have limitations we cannot fully control:

• The main shop and checkout are hosted on a third-party platform (c216beards.com). We cannot guarantee the accessibility of those pages.
• Our Facebook page is a third-party service; accessibility depends on Facebook's own platform.
• Some product images may not have fully optimized descriptions — we are working to improve this.
