Accessibility Statement
FIELD Coaching is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards to ensure we provide equal access to all of our users.
Our commitment
We believe that everyone should be able to access information about coaching services and book coaching sessions, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. This website aims to be accessible to the widest possible audience, including those using assistive technologies such as screen readers, voice recognition software, and alternative navigation methods.
Accessibility standards
This website strives to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards, published by the World Wide Web Consortium WCAG (2.1 Level AA). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities and more user-friendly for everyone.
Accessibility features
We have implemented the following accessibility features on our website:
- Keyboard navigation: Most interactive elements can be accessed using keyboard navigation. We are working to ensure full keyboard accessibility across all features.
- Screen reader compatibility: We use semantic HTML structure and basic ARIA labels. However, as a small business, we have not yet conducted comprehensive screen reader testing. We welcome feedback from users who rely on assistive technologies to help us identify and address any barriers.
- Alternative text: All meaningful images include descriptive alternative text for screen readers.
- Color contrast: Text and background colors meet or exceed WCAG AA contrast ratio requirements.
- Focus indicators: Clear visual focus indicators help keyboard users navigate the site.
- Responsive design: The website works across different devices and screen sizes.
- Skip links: Skip navigation links allow users to jump directly to main content.
- Headings structure: Proper heading hierarchy helps screen reader users navigate content.
- Form labels: Our booking system is provided by a third-party service (Cal.com) which we encourage to maintain accessibility standards.
- Link context: Links have meaningful descriptions that make sense out of context.
Third-party services
This website uses some third-party services that may have their own accessibility features and limitations:
- Cal.com booking system: Our appointment booking is handled by Cal.com. We encourage Cal.com to maintain high accessibility standards, but we cannot guarantee the accessibility of their platform.
- Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics for website analytics, which operates independently of our accessibility efforts.
If you experience difficulty using any third-party service linked from our website, please contact us and we will work to provide alternative ways to access the same information or functionality.
Known limitations
Despite our efforts, there may be some limitations. Currently known limitations include:
- Some decorative visual elements may not be perceivable by screen readers, but they do not contain essential information.
- The Cal.com booking system is a third-party service that may not meet all accessibility standards.
We are working to address these limitations and will update this statement as improvements are made.
