Web Accessibility and Inclusive Services

Web
Accessibility

Web accessibility encompasses aspects such as content clarity, ease of navigation, and adaptability to different devices. It's not just an ethical or legal obligation, but an incredible opportunity for all businesses. By offering an inclusive online experience, you stand out from the competition and gain the trust of your customers, employees, and suppliers. You reach a broader audience, thus increasing your reach and opportunities.

Here are the five main principles of digital accessibility, as defined by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)

01. Perceptibility

Ensure that information and user interfaces are presented in a way that is perceptible for all users. This means that content must be available in various forms (text, audio, video, etc.) to meet the needs of people with sensory impairments, such as blind or visually impaired individuals, as well as deaf or hard of hearing individuals.

02. Usability

Make the functionalities of the website and your documents accessible to all users, including those who navigate with assistive technologies such as screen readers or keyboards. Ensure that navigation is logical and smooth, interactive elements are easily accessible, and users can accomplish their tasks without encountering obstacles.

03. Understandability

Ensure that the information and operation of the website or document scrolling on the screen are clear and understandable for all users. Avoid using complex jargon, provide simple, explicit instructions.

04. Robustness

Ensure that the content can be correctly interpreted by different browsers, assistive technologies, and devices. By following established digital standards and technologies, you ensure that your site is accessible and functional for a variety of technological configurations.

05. Reliability

Digital accessibility is an ongoing process. Ensure constant vigilance on the accessibility of your website, conducting regular audits and taking user feedback into account to continuously improve the experience for all visitors.

OUR EXPERTISE IN UNIVERSAL ACCESSIBILITY
At Cabana Séguin, our teams have undergone comprehensive accessibility training. We have the knowledge to support our clients in creating or updating communication products that comply with the SGQRI 008 2.2 web accessibility standards.

  • We collaborate with several clients for whom accessibility standards are essential, and we are familiar with these concepts.
  • We stay informed about the developments of these standards.
  • We use software to validate various aspects such as font, color, contrast, character size, tags, alternative text, and reading order.
  • We comply with WCAG 2.1 AA or AAA standards, depending on the specific needs of each project.

BRAILLE TRANSLATION SERVICES
Although the demand for Braille is increasing, it is not yet sufficient to justify a specialized internal resource. That's why we collaborate with external experts to ensure translation, proofreading, and Braille printing.

OPTIMIZATION AND WRITING OF TEXTS IN INCLUSIVE WRITING
We understand the importance of inclusive writing to reflect diversity and promote equality in communication. We offer services to optimize your existing texts to make them more inclusive, as well as writing new content that respects these principles. By adopting inclusive writing, you demonstrate your commitment to respectful and equitable communication, thus strengthening your brand image and your connection with a diverse audience.
