Accessibility Statement
Signal & Circuit aims to make its journalism usable by the widest possible audience. Our target is WCAG 2.2 Level AA.
What we support
- Keyboard navigation, visible focus, semantic landmarks, and a skip-to-content link.
- Responsive layouts that remain usable at browser zoom and on small screens.
- Text alternatives for meaningful images and disclosures for illustrative AI-generated media.
- Reduced motion preferences and readable color contrast.
- Labels, status announcements, and error feedback for interactive forms.
How we test
We combine automated accessibility checks with keyboard-only review and screen-reader testing on representative routes. New publishing features should preserve accessible names, heading order, focus behavior, zoom, and reduced-motion support.
Known work in progress
Third-party embeds, advertisements, legacy discussion controls, and some complex evidence tables may not yet provide an equivalent experience in every assistive technology. We are progressively replacing or isolating inaccessible dependencies and documenting limitations instead of hiding them.
Report a barrier
Email accessibility@signalandcircuit.com with the page URL, what you were trying to do, and—if you are comfortable sharing—the browser or assistive technology involved. We aim to acknowledge accessibility reports within five business days.
