iSmile Foundation Inc. is committed to making our website accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. We believe that access to information about our mission and programs is a right, not a privilege.
01.Our Commitment to Accessibility
We strive to make our website accessible and aligned with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines WCAG 2.1 Level AA. These guidelines help ensure web content is easier to use for people with a wide range of needs, including visual, hearing, motor, and cognitive disabilities.
This includes visitors who may experience blindness, low vision, color blindness, deafness, hearing loss, difficulty using a keyboard or mouse, learning disabilities, attention challenges, or memory-related difficulties.
02.Measures We Take
We actively work to improve accessibility across our website by using clear page structure that supports screen readers, maintaining strong color contrast between text and backgrounds, making interactive elements accessible by keyboard, adding descriptive alt text for images, using clear and simple language, designing pages to work across different screen sizes and devices, and avoiding flashing or moving content that may create discomfort or trigger seizures.
03.Known Limitations
While we work to make our website accessible, some content may not yet fully meet accessibility standards. We are actively reviewing our website and making improvements where needed.
Some older PDF documents may not be fully compatible with screen readers. Certain embedded third-party tools, such as donation forms or payment services, may also have accessibility limitations outside of our direct control. Captions and transcripts for video content are being added as part of our ongoing accessibility improvements.
04.Assistive Technology Compatibility
Our website is designed to work with a range of assistive technologies, including screen readers such as NVDA, JAWS, and VoiceOver, keyboard-only navigation, browser zoom and text resizing, and high contrast display settings.
For the best experience, we recommend using an up-to-date browser and current assistive technology when accessing our website.
05.Feedback & Contact
We welcome feedback on the accessibility of our website. If you experience any barriers or need information in an alternative format, please contact us so we can review and address your request.
To report an accessibility issue, email ismilefoundationinc@gmail.com with the subject line “Accessibility Feedback.”
We aim to respond to accessibility feedback within 5 business days.
06.Physical Accessibility
iSmile Foundation is also committed to supporting physical accessibility at the events and programs we host. If you have accessibility needs related to a specific event or program, please contact us in advance so we can make appropriate arrangements.
07.Ongoing Improvement
Accessibility is an ongoing commitment for iSmile Foundation. We regularly review our website and update our practices as technology, user needs, and accessibility standards evolve. This Accessibility Statement will be reviewed and updated at least once each year.
If you have suggestions for how we can improve accessibility, we welcome your feedback. Please email us at ismilefoundationinc@gmail.com.
