Accessibility Statement

Written to describe FitSwap's actual current state honestly rather than assert compliance that hasn't been verified — an overstated accessibility claim is its own source of legal exposure.

16.1 Our Commitment

FitSwap aims to be usable by as many people as possible, regardless of ability. We use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA as the standard we measure ourselves against — see §16.3 for the current state of testing against it.

16.2 What's In Place Today

Descriptive alt text on listing photos and other meaningful images
Semantic HTML and standard interactive components intended to work with keyboard navigation and screen readers
Text sized and structured to be readable, with color used alongside text/icon labels rather than as the only way information is conveyed

16.3 Known Limitations

FitSwap has run automated accessibility testing (axe-core) across core pages and fixed every issue it identified, but has not yet completed a formal audit by a qualified accessibility professional or comprehensive end-to-end screen reader testing across every flow. Automated testing catches a meaningful subset of accessibility issues but not all of them — some areas, particularly newer or more complex flows like proposing a swap or the admin dashboard, are more likely to have unaddressed gaps than core browsing and account pages. We do not currently claim full WCAG 2.1 AA conformance — only that it's the standard we're working toward.

16.4 Reporting an Accessibility Barrier

If you encounter a barrier using FitSwap, tell us — what page you were on, what assistive technology (if any) you were using, and what happened. We'll acknowledge reports within 5 business days.

16.5 Ongoing Efforts

This statement is reviewed as FitSwap's product changes, not left static — new features are expected to meet the same standard described in §16.1 before they ship, not retrofitted afterward.
