Web Accessibility Statement

Conformance

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. There are three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Nobilis Group is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.

How to Find and Use a Screen Reader

Text-to-speech software such as Screen Readers allows users to read and interact online in many ways. There are free Screen Reader apps available including NVDA for Windows and VoiceOver for Mac. JAWS is highly recommended for use with Windows.

Screen readers accept input through your keyboard, among other ways. JAWS accepts Braille input. Also, by pressing the down arrow in JAWS, you can navigate through items on the page.

 

How to Use Accessibility Tools on Mobile

VoiceOver for iOS and TalkBack for Android come built-in. To turn on VoiceOver, go to “Settings”, then “General”, to “Accessibility”, and then turn “VoiceOver” on. You can set the “Accessibility Shortcut” to “VoiceOver” from the “Accessibility” page in order to triple-click the “Home” button to toggle VoiceOver on and off. TalkBack has a similar feature.

“Zoom”, “Magnifier”, “Invert Colors”, “Color Filters”, and “Reduce White Point” can also be used on iOS devices, available through the “Accessibility Shortcut”.
