Accessibility Statement

Our Commitment to Accessibility

Animal Artistry of Texas LLC is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards.

We strive to ensure that our website is accessible to all users, regardless of ability. Our goal is to provide a website that is perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust for all visitors. We are committed to complying with the accessibility requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and relevant state laws.

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities.

Accessibility Features

We have implemented the following accessibility features to ensure our website is usable by everyone:

Semantic HTML Structure

Our website uses semantic HTML elements to provide meaningful structure and navigation. Proper heading hierarchy (h1-h6) is maintained throughout all pages, enabling screen reader users to understand content organization and navigate efficiently.

Keyboard Navigation

All interactive elements on our website are accessible via keyboard. Users can navigate through menus, forms, links, and buttons using standard keyboard commands. Focus indicators are visible to help users track their position on the page.

Alternative Text for Images

All meaningful images on our website include descriptive alternative text (alt text) that conveys the content and purpose of the image. Decorative images are marked appropriately to be skipped by assistive technologies.

Color Contrast

We have designed our website with sufficient color contrast ratios between text and background colors to ensure readability for users with visual impairments. We aim to meet or exceed WCAG 2.1 Level AA contrast requirements.

Responsive Design

Our website is fully responsive and can be viewed on various devices and screen sizes. Content reflows appropriately when text is resized up to 200% without loss of functionality or content overlap.

Form Labels and Error Messages

All form fields have associated labels that are programmatically connected. Required fields are clearly marked, and error messages are descriptive and provided in an accessible format to help users complete forms successfully.

ARIA Landmarks

We use ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) landmarks to define regions of the page, helping assistive technology users navigate directly to main content, navigation, and other important sections.

Third-Party Content and Services

While we strive to ensure accessibility throughout our website, some third-party content and services may have limitations:

Google Maps

We use Google Maps to display our business location. While Google has made significant accessibility improvements, some map features may not be fully accessible to all users. If you have difficulty using the map, please contact us directly for directions and location information.

External Services

Our website may contain links to external websites and services, including social media platforms and third-party form processing services. While we select services with accessibility in mind, we cannot guarantee the accessibility of third-party content.

We encourage third-party providers to make their content accessible, and we work with them to address accessibility issues when identified.

Current Compliance Status

The Animal Artistry of Texas LLC website is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.

We are actively working to address the following known issues:

• Some third-party embedded content may not have full keyboard accessibility
