People who work hourly jobs include people who use screen readers, big text and switch controls. We want PinkLinq to work for all of them. We don't use an overlay widget: we build it into the app.
What we aim for
Our target is the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA, across the website, the web app and the phone app.
What's in place
- Text size, high contrast, reduced motion and underlined links, in the app's display settings
- A light look and a dark look
- Forms with real labels, and error messages tied to the field they're about
- Keyboard use, with a skip link and visible focus
- Screens that adapt to phones without sideways scrolling, and fields large enough that phones don't zoom when you tap them
- Automated tests that check some of these on each change, such as sideways scrolling at phone width and field sizes
What we know isn't there yet
We haven't had an independent accessibility audit, so we can't claim full conformance. Some older screens, charts and third-party content, such as maps and videos a company adds, may fall short. The kiosk is designed for touch.
Tell us about a barrier
If something in PinkLinq stops you doing what you need to do, tell us through support@pinklinq.com. Say which page and what happened, and what you were using, if you can. We take these reports seriously, and we'll aim to answer within 5 business days. If you need something in another format, we'll help.
