Accessibility Features To enhance website accessibility, we use the Ally plugin, which provides users with:
- Text adjustments (larger text, line height, alignment, readable fonts).
- Orientation adjustments (page structure, screen reader compatibility, reading mask, hide images, pause animations, highlight links, outline focus).
- Color adjustments (greyscale, contrast).

Ongoing Efforts We recognize that web accessibility is an ongoing process. Our team continues to monitor and update our website’s accessibility features to ensure an inclusive user experience. Some content may not yet fully meet the highest accessibility standards, but we are actively working to address these areas.
