Our Commitment to Web Accessibility

RPI Creative LLC is committed to providing a fully accessible website experience for all users of all abilities, including those who rely on assistive technologies like screen readers, screen enlargement software, and alternative keyboard input devices to navigate the web.

Ongoing Efforts to Ensure Accessibility

We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1 as our guiding principle for determining accessibility. These are internationally agreed-upon standards that cover a wide range of recommendations and best practices for making content useable. As we add new pages and functionality to our website, all designs, code, and content entry practices are checked against these standards.

Website accessibility is an ongoing process. We continually test content and features for WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance and remediate any issues to ensure we meet or exceed the standards. Testing of our website is performed using industry-standard tools including the Accessibility Checker WordPress Plugin, color contrast analyzers, keyboard-only navigation techniques, and Flesch-Kincaid readability tests.

The following improvements have been implemented on rpicreative.com to enhance accessibility for all users:

  • All meaningful images include descriptive alternative text to support screen reader users

  • Page titles are descriptive and unique across the site

Where We’re Improving

We are actively working to further improve the following areas:

  • Continued color contrast improvements across all page elements and navigation components
  • Adding alt text to all remaining images across the site as content is updated
  • Reviewing and improving heading structure across all pages for logical reading order
  • Ensuring all new pages and content meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards before publishing

 

This is part of our broader effort to make everyone’s experience at RPI Creative LLC a welcoming and enjoyable one. Please note that while we make every effort to provide information accessible for all users, we cannot guarantee the accessibility of third party websites to which we may link.
