Our Approach to Accessibility
Digital finance designed with everyone in mind.
By creating online experiences everyone can use, there are no limits to what anyone can do.
Our commitment to inclusion and accessibility.
Since everything we do is digital, we’re committed to creating online experiences that empower equal engagement and make everyone feel welcome, not just by working towards the standards set by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines ( WCAG 2.1 AA ), but by always striving to be even better.
Creating experiences for everyone requires everyone.
We believe breaking down digital design barriers involves the input of us all—including the people we’re designing for.
We’re all in on accessibility.
From design to development to testing, our entire team has accessibility objectives they’re accountable for.
In-house experts.
Our dedicated accessibility squad sets the framework for every project and is on hand at every step.
Designing with, not for.
We encourage people with disabilities to participate in our research and testing, and we prioritize their feedback.
Ongoing learning and education.
Continuing accessibility training keeps us sharp, with a focus on technical skills, awareness, and advocacy.
Industry-leading allies.
It’s not just us: we leverage Deque–a 3rd party leader in digital accessibility solutions– to regularly evaluate our site and offer their expertise.
