Accessibility Policy

At Matunog & Associates, we are committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to all individuals, regardless of ability or technology. We strive to provide a user-friendly and inclusive digital experience that adheres to best practices and standards in accessibility.

Our Commitment

We are actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of our website in accordance with internationally recognized standards and guidelines, including:

-Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA

-The Philippine Web Accessibility Policy, as outlined by the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT)

-The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), where applicable

Our goal is to provide all users, including those with visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive disabilities, with equitable access to the information and services offered on our site.

Key Accessibility Features

To support accessible browsing, our website includes:

Keyboard Navigation: The site can be navigated entirely via a keyboard for users who cannot use a mouse.

Screen Reader Compatibility: We use semantic HTML and ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) labels to ensure compatibility with screen readers.

Text Alternatives: Descriptive alt text is provided for all essential images.

Readable Content: We ensure clear typography, appropriate color contrasts, and resizable text to improve legibility.

Responsive Layout: The site adjusts seamlessly to different screen sizes and orientations across devices.

Ongoing Efforts

Accessibility is an ongoing priority. We regularly test the website using accessibility tools and real-user feedback, and we perform audits to identify and address any barriers that may arise as we update our content or features.

We partner with accessibility consultants as needed and train our developers and content creators to uphold accessibility standards throughout the site’s lifecycle.

Third-Party Content

While we strive to ensure full accessibility of our own content, some third-party features (such as embedded videos, social media feeds, or maps) may not be fully compliant. We encourage these third parties to adopt accessible practices and are open to feedback for improvement.
