Our commitment to accessibility

MACS Bid Studio is committed to making our website accessible to all visitors, including people with disabilities. We believe that everyone should be able to access information about our services without barriers, and we are continually working to improve the accessibility and usability of this site.

Standards we aim to meet

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA, as published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, cognitive, and motor impairments.

What we have done

We have taken the following steps to support an accessible experience on this website:

Colour and contrast — Our colour palette has been selected with readability in mind. We aim to maintain sufficient contrast between text and background colours throughout the site.

Text and typography — We use clear, legible fonts at sizes that are readable across devices. Text can be resized using standard browser controls without loss of content or functionality.

Keyboard navigation — The site is designed to be navigable using a keyboard alone, without requiring the use of a mouse.

Descriptive links — We aim to write link text that clearly describes the destination or action, rather than using generic phrases such as "click here."

Responsive design — The site is designed to work across a range of devices and screen sizes, including mobile phones and tablets.

Reduced motion — Where animations or transitions are used, we aim to respect user preferences for reduced motion where technically possible.

Known limitations

We are a small independent business and our website is built and maintained without a dedicated web development team. While we strive to meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards, there may be areas of the site that fall short. Known or potential limitations include:

• Some documents available for download (such as PDFs) may not be fully accessible to screen readers

• Third-party tools or embeds used on the site (such as contact forms or video content) may have their own accessibility limitations that are outside our direct control

We are committed to addressing these limitations progressively as the site develops.

Third-party content

Some pages on this website may include content or functionality provided by third-party platforms (such as embedded video, scheduling tools, or contact forms).
