Accessibility statement

1Our aim

We build this website to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. WCAG is the international standard for websites that work for everyone, including people who use a screen reader, a keyboard instead of a mouse, or bigger text.

It is the same standard we build our clients’ websites to. This statement covers every page of oghamlabs.com.

2What we have done

• Zoom. The text grows with your browser’s zoom, and the layout rearranges to fit a narrow screen, so you shouldn’t have to scroll sideways.
• Keyboard. Every link, button and form field works with a keyboard alone. Tab moves forward, Shift with Tab moves back, and Enter chooses. Your first press of Tab brings up a Skip to content link, and a clear outline shows where you are.
• Screen readers. Each page has one main heading with the others in order under it, the language is set to English (Ireland), and every form field has a label, so a screen reader can find its way around. Pictures that are only decoration are hidden from screen readers.
• Colour and contrast. The main text is dark grey on white, at a contrast of more than 6 to 1, where the standard asks for 4.5 to 1. Links in the text are underlined, so they never rely on colour alone.
• Movement. If your phone or computer is set to reduce motion, the site switches its animation off. Otherwise, the pictures at the top of the homepage turn once through three designs as it opens, then stay still. Nothing plays sound or video.
• Plain English. We keep sentences short and explain any technical word when we use it, as we did with WCAG above.
• Without JavaScript. Every page can be read with JavaScript switched off, and the enquiry form still sends. Only the Your name in Ogham page needs it.
• Printing. Pages print cleanly, without the menus, and with the full address after each link to another website, so a printed copy works for a committee or a board.

3Make it easier to read

These work on this website, and on most others:

• Zoom on a computer: hold Ctrl (Cmd on a Mac) and press the plus key. The minus key zooms out, and 0 takes you back to normal. Most browsers remember your zoom for each website.
• Zoom on a phone: spread two fingers apart on the screen.
• Hear a page read aloud: most phones and computers can read a page out to you. Look under Accessibility in your device’s settings.

4How we check

We test the site ourselves:

• with a keyboard alone, to make sure every control can be reached and you can see where you are
• zoomed to 200%, and on a screen 320 pixels wide, as narrow as a small phone
• with Windows high-contrast colours, with animation switched off, and with JavaScript switched off

Every time we build the site, an automatic check also catches mistakes such as a picture with no description or a page with two main headings. This is our own testing, not an independent audit.

5Where it still falls short

These are the gaps we know about:

• Pictures of sample designs. The phone screens on the homepage show real designs we made, with the names changed. They are pictures, not working websites: their text is small and the buttons drawn on them don’t work. The text around them says what each design does.
• A ticking countdown. In the club sample on the homepage, a countdown to the next match changes every second while it is on screen. It stays still if your device is set to reduce motion, but otherwise it can’t be paused.

If any of these gets in your way, please tell us.

6Tell us about a problem

If something on this website is hard to use, or you can’t get the information you need, email [email protected]. Tell us the page, what you were trying to do and, if you know it, the phone or computer you were using.

We reply within one working day. If you would rather talk, put your phone number in your email and we’ll ring you.
