Accessibility Statement

Apex Foot has invested significant resources to help ensure that our website is accessible to all individuals, including those with disabilities. We believe accessibility is essential and that every person has the right to live with dignity, equality, comfort, and independence.

We are committed to continually improving the accessibility of our website and strive to conform with guidance from the United States Department of Justice and recognized technical standards, including the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

Ongoing Efforts

Accessibility is an ongoing effort at Apex Foot. We are continuously reviewing and updating our website content and functionality to improve usability and ensure compliance with current accessibility standards. As our website evolves, we remain committed to identifying and addressing accessibility barriers in a timely manner.

Platform & Theme Accessibility

Our website is built on the BigCommerce platform and utilizes the Cornerstone theme (version 5.2 and higher). This default theme is designed to meet WCAG 2.1 Level A compliance in key areas, including:

  • Keyboard accessibility
  • Timing
  • Navigation
  • Input modals
  • Readability

We leverage these built-in accessibility features while continuing to enhance our own content and implementations to achieve Level A, AA and AAA.

Conformance Status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) define requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities, with three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. We are consistently doing quarterly audit updates. 

Apex Foot is partially conformant with WCAG Level AAA, but up to date level A and AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content may not fully conform to the accessibility standard of AAA.
