Accessibility (ADA) Policy
Stain Wiki is dedicated to providing a website that everyone can use, including people with disabilities. Our goal is to make stain-removal guides, fabric-care tips, product information, and related resources clear, navigable, and perceivable for all visitors.
As a site focused on stain removal, we continuously refine our content and features to support accessible browsing, including readable instructions, alt text for imagery, clear headings, and predictable navigation. We work to apply established accessibility standards across new and existing pages.
Our Commitment
We aim to make our resources usable by the broadest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability. Accessibility considerations are built into the way we create, review, and maintain stain-removal content so users can find solutions quickly and without barriers.
Conformance Status
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) describe how to improve access to digital content for people with disabilities and set three levels of conformance: A, AA, and AAA.
Stain Wiki is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. Partial conformance means certain items may not yet fully meet the standard. We regularly review, remediate, and enhance our site to increase conformance over time.
Measures to Support Accessibility
Stain Wiki takes the following steps to support accessibility:
- Embedding accessibility in our workflow: Accessibility is considered at each stage of design, content creation, and maintenance for stain-removal guides, charts, and media.
- Quality assurance using multiple methods: We combine automated scans with manual reviews (including keyboard testing and screen reader checks) to find and fix barriers.
- Ongoing training and guidance: Team members and contributors receive direction on creating accessible text, headings, links, color contrast, captions, and alt text.
- Dedicated oversight: We assign responsibility for coordinating and tracking accessibility efforts across the site.
