Accessibility Statement

Our target

We aim for https://paragonbooks.net and the app at https://app.paragonbooks.net to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. In practice that means you can use them with a keyboard alone, with a screen reader, with zoomed or enlarged text, and in light or dark mode, and that colour is never the only way information is shown.

Where things stand

The website is checked against WCAG 2.2 AA with automated testing in both light and dark mode, at phone and desktop widths. Every page can be used with a keyboard, has a visible focus indicator and a link to skip to the main content, and follows text contrast rules.

The app is designed to the same standard. Its colours meet AA contrast, and status is shown with words and symbols as well as colour. It hasn’t yet had a full audit against WCAG 2.2 AA, so there may be barriers we haven’t found. Dense screens such as reports and the ledger are the most likely to have them.

Ontario

If you are in Ontario, the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) sets standards for websites and customer service. WCAG 2.2 AA goes beyond the WCAG 2.0 AA level the AODA sets for websites. If you need information from ParagonBooks in another format, such as plain text that works with your screen reader, ask us and we will provide it.

Reporting a barrier

Write to hello@altumo.com with:

• the page or screen, and what you were trying to do;
• what happened;
• the browser, device and any assistive technology you use, if you’re comfortable saying.

We will reply to say we received it, work on a fix, and keep you informed. While we work on it, we will help you get the information or finish the task another way.
