Accessibility statement

Last reviewed: May 23, 2026 · Compliance target: WCAG 2.1 Level AA

Our commitment

ProFinanceCast aims to be usable by people with disabilities, including those who rely on assistive technology such as screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, or high-contrast display modes. We target conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA.

Known gaps

We audit the public site on each material release. As of the date above, the following items are known and on the roadmap:

• Variable font weights: the editorial display typography currently ships only weight 400 of each face. Heavier weights may render with synthetic bolding on some browsers (Issue tracked: LP-P1-DES-2; fix in progress).
• Mobile touch targets: several legacy elements were below the WCAG 2.5.5 floor of 44×44 px. The hero CTAs, sticky-CTA dismiss, and slider thumbs were corrected on 2026-05-23. Footer link spacing remains under review.
• Reduced-data preference: we do not yet honour prefers-reduced-data; large hero photography ships at full resolution to all visitors.
• Light mode: the brand currently forces dark mode. A light-mode swap respecting prefers-color-scheme is on the design backlog.

If you discover an accessibility issue not listed here, please tell us using the contact below. We aim to acknowledge accessibility reports within 2 business days and to fix material issues within 30 days.

What works well

• One <h1> per page, structural heading hierarchy.
• Skip-to-content link as the first interactive element.
• All non-decorative images carry descriptive alt text.
• Range inputs in the hero forecast widget are programmatically labelled (<label for="...">) and announce a unit-bearing aria-valuetext.
• prefers-reduced-motion: reduce disables all decorative animation (drift, breath, sparkline draw) globally.
• Forced-colors mode (Windows High Contrast, equivalents): explicit borders applied so buttons remain visible.
• Calculations run in your browser — no network round-trip per interaction, so screen-reader users are not delayed by latency.
