In plain English

What this means for visitors

The scan found some issues that might affect visitors with disabilities, such as hidden content that can be accessed by screen readers or keyboard users, small touch targets that can be hard to tap, and text that's hard to read due to low contrast. This could make it difficult for people with disabilities to use the site. To improve accessibility, consider fixing the contrast issue first, as it directly affects readability. Automated scans like this one catch many problems, but not all, so further review is recommended.

Findings

3 issue types found on the homepage

Each item is one failing rule; the count shows how many elements on the page trigger it. Severity follows axe-core impact levels.

#1MajorWCAG 4.1.23 elementsRule details ↗

Hidden content can receive focus

Keyboard users land on elements that screen readers say don't exist.

Who it affects

Makes a task significantly harder (low contrast, links with no name, missing frame titles).

First fix

Remove tabindex from hidden elements or don't hide focusable content with aria-hidden.

#2MajorWCAG 2.5.82 elementsRule details ↗

Touch targets are too small

Small links and buttons are hard to tap for people with motor impairments.

Who it affects

Makes a task significantly harder (low contrast, links with no name, missing frame titles).

First fix

Make clickable targets at least 24×24 CSS pixels or add spacing.

#3MajorWCAG 1.4.31 elementRule details ↗

Text doesn't have enough contrast against its background

Light grey text on white, or text over photos, is hard or impossible to read for people with low vision or color blindness, and for anyone outdoors on a phone.

Who it affects

Makes a task significantly harder (low contrast, links with no name, missing frame titles).

First fix

Use a darker text color or lighter background so the contrast ratio is at least 4.5:1 (3:1 for large text).

Severity guide

How to read the counts

Critical

Blocks a task outright for some visitors (for example an image-only flyer with no text, or a form field with no label).

Major

Makes a task significantly harder (low contrast, links with no name, missing frame titles).

Minor

Reduces clarity or consistency (heading order, landmarks, touch-target size).

What this grade does and does not cover

  • Covers: the public homepage only, loaded once in a desktop browser, tested with axe-core against WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA rules (a superset of the WCAG 2.1 AA standard in the DOJ rule).
  • Does not cover: inner pages, PDFs and documents, logged-in portals, video captions, alt-text quality, keyboard usability of custom widgets, or anything that needs a human judgment.
  • A grade is a monitoring signal, not a legal assessment or certification. How we score.
