Accessibility Statement for Stellar Vista Studios

Stellar Vista Studios is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for everyone. We are continually improving the user experience for all visitors and applying the relevant accessibility standards. Our goal is to provide a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability.

Our Commitment to Accessibility

We strive to adhere to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, a set of guidelines developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with a wide array of disabilities. Conformance with these guidelines helps make the web more user-friendly for everyone.

Measures to Support Accessibility

Stellar Vista Studios takes the following measures to ensure accessibility of our website:

Specific Accessibility Features

Keyboard Navigation

Our website is designed to be fully navigable using a keyboard. Users can navigate through the site using the Tab key to move between interactive elements, and use the Enter key to activate links and buttons. We have ensured that the focus order is logical and intuitive.

Screen Reader Compatibility

We have optimized our website to be compatible with screen reader software. This includes providing descriptive alternative text for all images, using appropriate heading levels to structure content, and ensuring that form elements are properly labeled.

Color Contrast

We have carefully selected color palettes to ensure sufficient contrast between text and background colors, making it easier for users with low vision to read the content on our website. We regularly check color contrast ratios using accessibility testing tools.

Alternative Text for Images

All images on our website include descriptive alternative text that conveys the content and function of the image to users who are unable to see it. This helps screen reader users understand the context of the images on the page. For example, the Stellar Vista Studio logo has alt text that describes the logo itself as well as the company name.

Resizable Text

Users can easily increase or decrease the text size on our website using their browser settings. This allows users with low vision to customize the text size to their preference.

Clear and Simple Language

We strive to use clear and simple language throughout our website to make it easier for all users to understand our content. We avoid jargon and technical terms whenever possible.

Form Accessibility

All forms on our website are designed to be accessible to users with disabilities. Form elements are properly labeled, and error messages are clear and informative. We also provide instructions and examples to help users fill out forms correctly. Labels are associated with their corresponding input fields using the "for" attribute, ensuring screen readers can properly announce them.

Video Accessibility

We strive to ensure that all video content on our website is accessible to individuals with disabilities. This includes providing captions and transcripts for all videos, as well as audio descriptions when necessary. When possible, our video players are also designed to be navigable by keyboard.
