ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT
Effective Date: January 19, 2025
At Janzen Dental (“we,” “us,” or “our”), our goal is to ensure that everyone, including individuals with disabilities, can access and use our website, https://janzendental.com/ (the “Website”), and all of our digital offerings. We strive to continually improve our user experience by applying relevant accessibility standards and best practices.
1. COMMITMENT TO ACCESSIBILITY
- Inclusive Design: We are committed to making our Website accessible and user-friendly to everyone.
- Standards: Our ongoing efforts to maintain and improve accessibility are guided by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
- Continuous Improvement: We continuously update our Website to ensure ongoing adherence to these standards and to address potential accessibility issues.
2. ACCESSIBILITY FEATURES
We have implemented or are in the process of implementing the following features and practices to make our Website more accessible:
- Text Alternatives: We provide text alternatives (ALT text) for non-text content such as images, ensuring users who rely on screen readers can access important visual information.
- Keyboard Navigation: We aim to ensure that our Website is navigable by keyboard alone, allowing users with motor impairments or those who prefer keyboard navigation to browse effectively.
- Consistent Structure: We use clear headings, labels, and a consistent layout throughout the Website, helping users to navigate and find information quickly.
- Color Contrast: We strive to maintain sufficient color contrast between text and background elements to help users with low vision or color-blindness read content more easily.
- Form Labels & Instructions: Our Website includes proper labeling and instructions for form fields to assist users relying on assistive technologies.
- ARIA Roles & Landmarks: Where appropriate, we use accessible rich internet application (ARIA) roles and landmarks to provide additional context to screen readers.
3. ONGOING EFFORTS
While we take accessibility seriously and continuously review our Website, there may be some areas that still need improvement. We are committed to ongoing efforts to improve and maintain the accessibility of our Website, including:
- Periodic Audits: Conducting periodic manual and automated accessibility audits to identify and fix issues.
- User Feedback: Encouraging and reviewing feedback from users regarding accessibility improvements.
