Our Commitment to Accessibility

At Aurora Studios, we believe that everyone deserves equal access to information and digital experiences. This commitment extends to our website, where we strive to provide a seamless and inclusive experience for all users, regardless of their abilities or disabilities.

We understand that accessibility is an ongoing effort, and we are dedicated to continually evaluating and improving our website to meet the evolving needs of our audience. Our goal is to ensure that our website is accessible to individuals using assistive technologies, such as screen readers, screen magnifiers, and speech recognition software.

Accessibility Standards

Aurora Studios adheres to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, level AA, as our web accessibility standard. These guidelines outline best practices for making web content more accessible to people with disabilities. We are committed to implementing these guidelines throughout our website to ensure a consistent and user-friendly experience.

Our accessibility efforts include, but are not limited to:

  • Providing alternative text descriptions for all meaningful images and non-text content. This allows users with screen readers to understand the purpose and context of visual elements.
  • Ensuring sufficient color contrast between text and background colors to enhance readability for users with low vision or color blindness.
  • Using clear and concise language that is easy to understand for all users, including those with cognitive disabilities.
  • Structuring content logically and using headings, lists, and other semantic elements to improve navigation and organization.
  • Making our website keyboard navigable, allowing users to access all features and content without relying on a mouse.
  • Providing captions and transcripts for video and audio content to make it accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing.
  • Ensuring that forms are accessible and easy to fill out for all users, including those using assistive technologies.
  • Regularly testing our website with assistive technologies to identify and address any accessibility issues.

We also take into consideration the needs of users who use other assistive technologies, such as screen magnifiers and speech recognition software. We are committed to providing a website that is usable and accessible for all users, regardless of the assistive technology they use.
