Accessibility Statement

Last Updated: January 2026

Our Commitment

SplitWise NWA is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We believe that everyone deserves equal access to information about their housing options during divorce or separation, regardless of ability.

We strive to provide a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, including those who use assistive technologies such as screen readers, screen magnifiers, and speech recognition software.

Accessibility Standards

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards. These guidelines, developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), provide a framework for making web content more accessible.

In plain language, this means we work to ensure our website is:

  • Perceivable: Information and user interface components are presentable in ways users can perceive
  • Operable: User interface components and navigation are operable by all users
  • Understandable: Information and operation of the user interface is understandable
  • Robust: Content is robust enough to be interpreted by a wide variety of assistive technologies

Accessibility Features

We have implemented the following accessibility features on our website:

  • Keyboard Navigation: All functionality is accessible via keyboard for users who cannot use a mouse
  • Screen Reader Compatibility: Our website is designed to work with popular screen readers
  • Alternative Text: Images include descriptive alt text for users who cannot see images
  • Clear Heading Structure: We use proper heading hierarchy (H1, H2, H3) to help users navigate content
  • Sufficient Color Contrast: Text and background colors meet contrast requirements for readability
  • Resizable Text: Text can be resized up to 200% without loss of content or functionality
  • Descriptive Link Text: Links clearly describe their destination or purpose
  • Form Labels: All form fields have clear, associated labels
  • Focus Indicators: Visible focus indicators help keyboard users track their location
  • Skip Navigation: Skip links allow users to bypass repetitive content

Assistive Technology Compatibility

Our website is designed to be compatible with the following assistive technologies:

  • Screen Readers: JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver (macOS/iOS), TalkBack (Android)
  • Screen Magnification: ZoomText, Windows Magnifier, macOS Zoom

We test our website using current versions of major browsers in combination with these technologies.
