1. OUR COMMITMENT
At The Fiscal Flow, we believe that financial education should be accessible to everyone – regardless of ability. We are committed to ensuring that individuals with disabilities can access and use our website independently and with dignity.
This commitment extends to:
- Vision impairments: Ensuring compatibility with screen readers and support for magnification
- Hearing impairments: Providing alternatives for audio content
- Motor impairments: Supporting keyboard navigation and sufficient time for interactions
- Cognitive impairments: Creating clear, simple content and consistent navigation
- Seizure disorders: Avoiding content that could trigger seizures
Accessibility is not a one-time project – it's an ongoing commitment woven into how we create content and design our site.
2. ACCESSIBILITY STANDARDS
We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. These international guidelines outline how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities.
WCAG guidelines are organized around four principles – requiring that content be:
| Principle | Description |
|---|---|
| Perceivable | Information and user interface components must be presentable to users in ways they can perceive. |
| Operable | User interface components and navigation must be operable by all users. |
| Understandable | Information and the operation of the user interface must be understandable. |
| Robust | Content must be robust enough to be interpreted by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies. |
You can learn more about WCAG at the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative website.
3. CONFORMANCE STATUS
The Fiscal Flow is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. "Partially conformant" means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard, but we are actively working to address these issues.
We recognize that accessibility is a journey, not a destination. We are committed to:
- Regularly testing our site for accessibility issues
- Fixing identified issues promptly
- Training our team on accessibility best practices
- Considering accessibility from the start when creating new content
Our goal is to achieve and maintain full WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance.
4. KNOWN LIMITATIONS
Despite our best efforts, some content on our site may not yet be fully accessible. Here are known limitations we are working to address:
| Limitation | Description | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Older PDF documents | Some older PDFs may not be fully accessible to screen readers. | We are reviewing and replacing older PDFs with accessible HTML content where possible. |
| Third-party embedded content | Videos, social media embeds, and other third-party content may not be fully accessible. | We encourage third parties to improve accessibility and provide alternatives when possible. |
| Complex financial tables | Some data tables may be difficult to navigate with screen readers. | We are simplifying tables and adding proper headers and summaries. |
| Older blog posts | Posts published before our accessibility initiative may have issues like missing alt text or poor heading structure. | We are systematically reviewing and updating older content. |
| User-generated comments | We cannot control the accessibility of content posted by users in comments. | We encourage users to post accessible content and will remove content that creates significant barriers. |
If you encounter any content that is not accessible to you, please contact us so we can address the issue or provide an alternative format.
