Our Commitment to Accessibility
Bakingwhiz.com, owned and operated by Emilly ("we," "us," or "our"), 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.
Measures We Take
We strive to adhere to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA standards. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological disabilities.
Our measures include, but are not limited to:
- Providing text alternatives for non-text content
- Creating content that can be presented in different ways without losing information
- Making it easier for users to see and hear content
- Providing users enough time to read and use content
- Making all functionality available from a keyboard
- Making web pages appear and operate in predictable ways
- Helping users avoid and correct mistakes
- Maximizing compatibility with current and future user tools
Content and Features
We aim to ensure that our website:
- Has clear navigation: Our site structure is designed to be intuitive and consistent throughout.
- Uses readable fonts: We choose fonts and color contrasts that are easier to read.
- Provides alt text for images: We add descriptive text to our recipe images and illustrations.
- Has accessible forms: Our newsletter signup and contact forms are designed to be accessible.
- Features recipe instructions in clear steps: We format our recipes with clear headings, steps, and instructions.
Continuous Improvement
While we strive to adhere to the accepted guidelines and standards for accessibility and usability, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website, and we are currently working to achieve this. Be aware that due to the nature of the content on a recipe blog, with frequent updates and new posts, some content may not have full accessibility features implemented immediately.
