FAQ's
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
The ADA is a law that protects people with disabilites.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities in everyday activities. The ADA prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability just as other civil rights laws prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, sex, national origin, age, and religion. The ADA guarantees that people with disabilities have the same opportunities as everyone else to enjoy employment opportunities, purchase goods and services, and participate in state and local government programs." - ADA.gov
"... the nature of communication differs from situation to situation.
Examples of communication aids and services:
- Large print [content]
- Captioning
- Accessible electonic and information technology
"Web accessibility means that websites, tools, and technologies are designed and developed so that people with disabilities can use them. More specifically, people can:
- perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the Web
- contribute to the Web
Web accessibility encompasses all disabilities that affect access to the Web, including:
- auditory
- cognitive
- neurological
- physical
- speech
- visual
Web accessibility also benefits people without disabilities, for example:
- people using mobile phones, smart watches, smart TVs, and other devices with small screens, different input modes, etc.
- older people with changing abilities due to ageing
people with “temporary disabilities” such as a broken arm or lost glasses
- people with “situational limitations” such as in bright sunlight or in an environment where they cannot listen to audio
people using a slow Internet connection, or who have limited or expensive bandwidth.." - ADA.gov
As a business owner whether covered entities (Title II & Title III) or not, your responsibilities to person's with disabilities is to present a digital platform that permits information to be conveyed in a way in which the person with a disability can utilize and understand.
This includes:
- Captioning (real-time, open, closed)
- Content that is large and spaced (legible)
- White space throughout the website
- Content that uses colors that are ADA compliant
"People with disabilities navigate the web in a variety of ways. People who are blind may use screen readers, which are devices that speak the text that appears on a screen. People who are deaf or hard of hearing may use captioning. And people whose disabilities affect their ability to grasp and use a mouse may use voice recognition software to control their computers and other devices with verbal commands.
The ways that websites are designed and set up can create unnecessary barriers that make it difficult or impossible for people with disabilities to use websites... these barriers on the web keep people with disabilities from accessing information and programs that businesses and state and local governments make available to the public online. But these barriers can be prevented or removed so that websites are accessible to people with disabilities." - ADA.gov
- Poor color contrast
- Informational color cues content
- No alt text (text alternatives)
- No captioning on videos (including reels)
- Online forms that are inaccessible
