Accessibility
Last reviewed: 2026-06-07 · applies to all pages of cancelatlas.com.
Cancel Atlas is built to be usable by everyone, and we treat accessibility as part of the product , a site about honest UX should model it. We target WCAG 2.2 Level AA. The site partially conforms: the only known gaps are listed below.
How we tested: self-assessment with manual keyboard and screen-reader checks plus automated tooling; not yet independently audited.
What we do
- Keyboard-first: every control is reachable and operable by keyboard, with a skip-link to the main content and a visible focus ring that's never removed.
- Colour is never the only signal: each grade shows a letter and a number, and dimension bars carry their numeric value, meaning doesn't depend on colour.
- Respects your system preferences:
prefers-reduced-motionturns off animation and smooth-scroll;prefers-contrastand light/dark are honoured. - Real text, semantic structure: proper heading hierarchy, landmarks, and live text (not images of text), so screen readers and AI agents read the same content you see.
- Resilient: the page works without layout-shifting tricks; content order matches visual order; text scales with your browser zoom.
- No dark patterns: no autoplaying media, no pop-ups, no cookie walls, no attention traps. Any motion (e.g. the backers bar) pauses on hover/focus and respects reduced-motion.
Known limitations
We're actively closing these:
- A few secondary controls (e.g. the share-card link and the grid/list toggle) are slightly below the 24×24px target-size guideline and are being enlarged.
- Links that open in a new tab don't yet always announce that to screen readers.
- Inline form-field errors aren't yet announced individually (a form-level status message is).
- The sticky "Backed by" bar is informational; it pauses on hover/focus and is hidden for reduced-motion users, and the page reserves space so it doesn't cover content.
If you hit any other barrier, please tell us, accessibility fixes are prioritised.
