Accessibility Statement

Our Commitment to Accessibility

Effective Date: July 28, 2025

Relaunch Psychiatry is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards.

Conformance Status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA.

Relaunch Psychiatry is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.

Accessibility Features

Our website includes the following accessibility features:

Keyboard Navigation

All interactive elements can be accessed and operated using only a keyboard. Users can navigate through the website using the Tab key and activate links and buttons using the Enter or Space keys.

Screen Reader Compatibility

Our website is designed to be compatible with screen readers and other assistive technologies. We use semantic HTML elements and provide alternative text for images.

Color and Contrast

We maintain sufficient color contrast ratios to ensure text is readable for users with visual impairments. Color is not used as the only way to convey information.

Text Resizing

Users can resize text up to 200% without loss of functionality or readability. Our responsive design ensures content remains accessible at different zoom levels.

Alternative Text

All images include descriptive alternative text (alt text) to provide context for users who cannot see the images.

Form Accessibility

All form fields are properly labeled and associated with their corresponding input elements. Error messages are clearly identified and descriptive.

Focus Indicators

Clear focus indicators are provided for all interactive elements to help users understand which element is currently active.
