Our Accessibility Commitment
Aspen Sky Technologies | aspenskytech.com Initial Audit: March 30, 2026 (7.1/10) | Updated: April 2, 2026 (9.9/10)
Remediation Complete
We completed our full accessibility remediation on April 2, 2026, achieving a 9.9/10 AIM score with 0 errors and 0 contrast errors across all pages. Our target standard is WCAG 2.1 Level AA. We continue to monitor and improve as our site evolves.
Our Commitment
Aspen Sky Technologies is committed to making our website accessible to all visitors, including people with visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive disabilities. We're an IT company — we know better than most that technology should work for everyone, not just some people.
We're working to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA — the standard recognized by courts and accessibility experts as the benchmark for accessible websites.
What We've Done
The following accessibility improvements are in place as of our April 2, 2026 remediation:
Page language declared — Our site correctly identifies itself as English-language content, helping screen readers pronounce content accurately.
Skip navigation link — A "Skip to main content" link is available as the first focusable element, allowing keyboard users to bypass repetitive navigation.
Image alt text — All meaningful images include descriptive alternative text for screen reader users.
Decorative images confirmed — One flagged image was investigated and confirmed as a decorative background image requiring no alt text per WCAG 1.1.1.
No auto-playing media — We don't use auto-playing audio or video that could disorient or disturb visitors.
No accessibility overlay widgets — We don't use overlay "quick-fix" widgets, which research shows are ineffective and can actually make sites harder to use for people with disabilities. We're committed to real, code-level fixes.
Color contrast resolved — All text, buttons, links, and UI elements now meet the 4.5:1 contrast ratio required by WCAG 2.1 AA. Updated site-wide April 2, 2026.
Heading structure corrected — All pages now have a proper H1 heading and logical heading hierarchy. Resolved April 2, 2026.
Redundant navigation links resolved — Duplicate navigation links have been consolidated or differentiated. Resolved April 2, 2026.
Form accessibility reviewed — All visible contact form fields have proper labels. Two platform-generated hidden fields (Squarespace anti-spam honeypot and Google reCAPTCHA) are outside user control and have no impact on real users.
Known Platform Limitations
We believe in transparency. The following minor issues remain on our site and are outside our control as a Squarespace 7.1 user:
Hidden cart element — Squarespace injects a shopping cart element even though we have no store. This element is permanently hidden and JavaScript-controlled. It has no impact on any real user and cannot be removed through CSS or editor settings.
Platform-generated hidden fields — Two hidden form fields (anti-spam honeypot and Google reCAPTCHA) are flagged by automated tools but are intentionally hidden and never interacted with by real users.
Redundant platform links — Two navigation links are injected by Squarespace's template system and cannot be removed without breaking site functionality.
All remaining issues have been investigated, documented, and confirmed as having zero impact on real users.
Our Standard
We're targeting conformance with WCAG 2.1 Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). This is the standard referenced by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Department of Justice when assessing website accessibility.
We use a combination of automated tools (including WAVE by WebAIM) and manual testing to identify and address issues on an ongoing basis. We re-audit our site any time we make significant changes.
Having Trouble? Let Us Know.
If you encounter any barriers on our website — or if something isn't working the way you need it to — we genuinely want to hear from you. We'll do our best to respond within 2 business days and find a way to get you the information or help you need.
