What we measure

An accessibility statement signals a commitment to inclusive design and is increasingly required (EU Accessibility Act, ADA Title III).

How to improve your score

Publish a statement at `/accessibility` describing your conformance level (typically WCAG 2.1 AA), known limitations, and contact info for users who hit barriers.

Data source

Data source for this factor is not yet documented.

Implementation notes

Probe common URLs (`/accessibility`, `/accessibility-statement`) plus footer link extraction.

Scoring

Scoring formulas are versioned with the methodology. The current method (v1.1.0) maps raw measurements to pass, warn, fail. Factor weights determine how much each contributes to the composite — see the methodology index for the full table.
