While each Color It Queer site looks visually different, our goal is to give everyone the same levels of access and ease of use.<\/p>\n
h1<\/code>\u00a0heading, and we\u2019ve done our best to ensure headings follow a logical order.<\/li>\n- You should be able to zoom up to 300% without any issues.<\/li>\n
- Design elements have been updated to improve color contrast and navigability.<\/li>\n
- We support captions in our video players, and we\u2019ve improved how videos work with screen readers.<\/li>\n
- Advertisements should have accessible labels. We don\u2019t hide content if you use an ad blocker. We also encourage advertising partners to include captions for sponsored videos.<\/li>\n
- Newsletter subscription forms and social sharing menus are more useable. If you share a story that has images with alt text, we send the text alternatives over to Facebook and Twitter as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
How we test the platform<\/h2>\n
Along with testing in modern browsers, we use VoiceOver in Chrome and Safari to review our sites.<\/p>\n
In the near future, we will test any changes or improvements with NVDA and VoiceOver. We\u2019re also developing a suite of automated accessibility tests to help us flag issues with our sites.<\/p>\n
Future improvements<\/h2>\n
Here are a few things we\u2019re hoping to update in the coming months:<\/p>\n
\n- Site navigation<\/li>\n
- Contact forms<\/li>\n
- Some elements are not in the order you\u2019d expect when using a keyboard to navigate<\/li>\n
- Embeds and third-party content need accessible names<\/li>\n
- Text spacing could be improved for legibility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Along with these improvements, we\u2019re continuing to work with content creators to ensure that new stories are accessible to people with disabilities. This includes adding:<\/p>\n
\n- Alternative text for content images<\/li>\n
- Captions for videos<\/li>\n
- Transcripts for podcasts and audio files<\/li>\n
- Text descriptions for ads<\/li>\n
- Options to reduce motion in ads and interactive stories<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Contact us<\/h2>\n
If you have any feedback or questions about accessibility, we\u2019d love to hear from you:\u00a0accessibility@coloritqueer.com. Please include details about the site you\u2019re trying to access and the kind of assistive technology you\u2019re using (e.g., VoiceOver on iOS).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
