Accessibility Statement

1. About this statement

This statement applies to watchsense.org and is provided by Springbar Labs Ltd, the legal entity behind Watchsense.

We want this service to be usable by as many people as possible, regardless of ability or the technology they use to access it.

2. How accessible this website is

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 AA standard. We have worked to ensure you should be able to:

• Navigate the entire site using only a keyboard
• Use the site with a screen reader
• See a visible focus indicator at all times when using the keyboard
• Zoom in up to 400% without content becoming unusable
• Adjust colours and contrast using browser or system settings
• Use the site in both light and dark mode

3. Known issues

There are currently no known issues on this site.

4. Compliance status

This website is fully compliant with WCAG 2.2 AA.

5. Reporting a problem

If you find something on this site that you cannot access or that is harder to use than it should be, we want to hear about it.

Please reach out to us and describe the problem in as much detail possible, including the page address (URL) if relevant. We will acknowledge your message and aim to respond as soon as we can.

If the issue prevents you from submitting via the contact form, please reach out to us by email at [email protected].

6. Technical approach

We use semantic tags and attributes throughout, colour is never the sole means of conveying information, and form fields are explicitly labelled. We also make an active effort to test the user experience using keyboard navigation and browser accessibility tools during development.

7. Enforcement

Watchsense is not subject to the Public Sector Bodies Accessibility Regulations 2018. We do, however, take our responsibilities under the Equality Act 2010 seriously. If you are not satisfied with our response to an accessibility concern, you may contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS).
