These technologies are relied upon for conformance with the accessibility standards used.

Limitations and alternatives

Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility of The Guardians Gift , there may be some limitations. Below is a description of known limitations, and potential solutions. Please contact us if you observe an issue not listed below.

Known limitations for The Guardians Gift:

  1. Images : Ensure non-decorative images have alternative text because we were unaware of this accessibility requirement. We will review our image library and assign alternative text appropriately.
  2. Color Contrast: Brand colors do not conform because we were unaware of this requirement when we built and launched our website in 2023. We will review our branding and color schemes and adjust as needed.
  3. Site Structure: Inaccurate use of heading levels so there are skipped heading levels which were an oversight as we built our new website. We will be identifying and fixing these issues.
  4. WooCommerce Store: WooCommerce out-of-the-box is not accessible. The heading structure is not correct for products. We are evaluating the removal of WooCommerce from the website.
  5. Embedded Videos: We are identifying where we need to put transcripts throughout our site.
