Burton EMS is committed to making www.burtonems.com accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. We continually work to improve the user experience for all visitors and to apply the relevant accessibility standards.
Our Standard
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities.
Measures We Take
- Using semantic page structure with a single main heading per page and logical heading order;
- Providing text alternatives (alt text) for meaningful images;
- Including a "Skip to content" link and supporting keyboard navigation;
- Labeling form fields and providing clear error messages;
- Reviewing color contrast against WCAG AA requirements;
- Running regular automated accessibility scans with manual spot checks; and
- Considering accessibility when we add new content and features.
Known Limitations
Despite our efforts, some parts of the Site may not yet be fully accessible. We are aware of the following and are working to fix them:
- Some text, buttons, and form labels do not yet meet the minimum color contrast ratio;
- Some icon-only links (such as the logo and social media icons) do not yet have accessible names;
- Some pages skip heading levels;
- Some older images and documents may lack complete alternative text;
- Third-party content, such as the Tidio live chat widget, Google reCAPTCHA, embedded videos, and the cookie consent banner, is provided by outside vendors and may not fully conform; and
- Uploaded PDF documents may not be fully accessible.
