Accessibility · The Pelvic Lab
Target: WCAG 2.1 AAA web experience that works for everyone.
We believe everyone deserves clear, compassionate access to information about their pelvic health. We are committed to making thepelviclab.com usable for every visitor, including those who use screen readers, keyboard navigation, or other assistive technologies.
01 Our standard
We use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA as our target for this website. These are internationally recognized guidelines for making web content more accessible to people with disabilities, including those with visual, auditory, motor, or cognitive differences. We strive to meet these guidelines across all pages and features we control.
Our target standard, applied across every page and feature we maintain.
02 What we have done
This website was designed and built with accessibility as a priority. As part of that work, we reviewed it against the following criteria:
- Keyboard navigation: all interactive elements are reachable and operable without a mouse.
- Screen reader compatibility: page structure, headings, labels, and interactive elements are correctly identified for assistive technology users.
- Color contrast: text and interactive elements meet WCAG 2.1 AA contrast requirements.
- Heading structure: pages use a consistent, logical heading hierarchy.
- Form accessibility: contact form fields are labeled, keyboard-operable, and announce errors and confirmations correctly.
- Image descriptions: non-decorative images include descriptive alternative text.
- Link descriptions: links describe their destination or purpose.
- Video and motion controls: videos include pause controls, and animated content respects reduced-motion preferences.
- Skip navigation: a skip link allows keyboard users to bypass repeated navigation.
We take direct responsibility for the HTML, CSS, and content we have created and maintained on this site, and we continue to test and refine it over time.
03 Platform considerations
This website is built on Squarespace, a third-party website platform. While we have taken every available step to ensure our content meets WCAG 2.1 AA standards, certain platform-level behaviors, including some built-in interactive components and template elements, may have limitations we cannot directly modify. We continue to work within and beyond those constraints wherever possible.
04 Contact us
If you encounter a barrier on this site, cannot access content, or need information in a different format, please reach out. We want to know, and we will do our best to help.
We will respond as promptly as possible. If something on the site is not working for you, we can also provide information by phone or in person, whatever is most helpful for you.
05 Ongoing commitment
Accessibility is not a one-time project. We are committed to reviewing and improving this site on an ongoing basis as our content grows and as accessibility guidance evolves.
This statement was last reviewed in July 2026, including a check that the inquiry form announces validation errors and confirmations to assistive technology.
