Our commitment to making this website usable for everyone, the standards we follow (WCAG 2.1 Level AA), and how to reach us about accessibility issues.
Our commitment
Forbes Insurance Agencies is committed to making this website usable and accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. We work to follow recognized accessibility standards and to continuously improve the experience for all visitors. This statement applies to forbesinsuranceagencies.com and our related landing pages, including get.forbesinsuranceagencies.com.
Standards we follow
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological disabilities.
Current status
This site is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. We are actively working to identify and resolve accessibility issues across the site as part of our ongoing improvement process. Specific design and content choices made in support of accessibility include:
- Sufficient color contrast between text and background colors.
- Descriptive alternative text for meaningful images.
- Keyboard-navigable form controls and interactive elements.
- Semantic HTML structure with appropriate headings and landmark regions.
- Visible focus indicators on interactive elements.
- Responsive layout that adapts to a range of screen sizes and zoom levels.
Compatibility
This site is designed to be compatible with current and recent versions of major browsers, including Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge, on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices. It is intended to work with the following assistive technologies:
- Screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver (iOS and macOS), and TalkBack (Android).
- Operating-system magnifiers and text-zoom features.
- Keyboard navigation in lieu of mouse or pointer input.
- Voice-recognition input methods.
Known limitations
Despite our efforts, some content on this site may not yet be fully accessible. Specifically:
- Some placeholder photography on the site is licensed stock imagery and may carry generic alternative text until we replace it with locally-shot photography. We are working to provide more descriptive alternative text.
- Third-party content embedded on the site (such as social media links) may not meet the same accessibility standards.
If you encounter an accessibility barrier we have not identified above, please let us know so we can address it.
