Accessibility

If this site does not work for you, tell me and I will fix it.

Email smari@nordicnavigators.com. A real person reads it, and I aim to reply within two business days. Tell me the page and what went wrong; you do not need to know the technical term for it. Last updated 6 August 2026.

The standard I am working to

WCAG 2.1 Level AA. I am not claiming full conformance, because I have not tested every criterion. Below is what has been measured and what has not, so you can judge for yourself rather than take a badge on trust.

What has been measured

On 6 August 2026 every page of this site was tested in a real browser, at desktop and phone widths, in Chrome, Safari and Firefox. The results:

  • Colour contrast. 644 samples of text against its background across 25 pages. All meet the AA threshold.
  • Touch targets. No control on a phone is smaller than 24 pixels, and no standalone button or link is smaller than 44.
  • Keyboard. Every link, button and form field can be reached with the Tab key, with no traps, and every one shows a visible focus outline.
  • Images. All 63 have alternative text.
  • Form fields. None are smaller than 16 pixels, so iPhones do not zoom when you tap into one.
  • Zoom and reflow. No page scrolls sideways at phone width.
  • Headings. Every page has exactly one main heading.

What has not been checked yet

Being specific about this matters more than a clean-sounding claim.

  • Screen readers. This site has not been tested with VoiceOver, NVDA or JAWS. It is built from plain HTML headings, links and form labels, which usually reads well, but usually is not the same as tested.
  • Voice control and switch access. Not tested.
  • The payment page.Payments run on Stripe’s own pages, which I do not control or test.
  • The demo dashboard. It is a separate application on a different address and is not covered by any of the above.

If you use any of these and something does not work, that is the most useful email I could get.

If something blocks you right now

Everything on this site can also be done by email. If a form, the booking calendar or the scorecard will not work for you, write to me and we will do it directly. You will not get a worse answer or a slower one for not using the website.

The honest caveat

This page describes work done and work outstanding. It is not legal advice and it is not a certification. Accessibility is not a state you reach once, and the measurements above will need redoing as the site changes.
