Accessibility

Accessible product information and assessment workflows.

The public pages and planned applications aim to support keyboard, screen-reader, zoom and reduced-motion use, but formal conformance testing remains outstanding.

Current page features

  • Semantic headings, landmarks and lists.
  • A keyboard-visible skip link.
  • Keyboard-operable navigation and disclosure controls.
  • Escape-to-close and outside-click behaviour for navigation menus.
  • Responsive layouts for narrow screens and high zoom.
  • Reduced-motion support through the user's operating-system preference.
  • Text alternatives for the main conceptual diagrams.

Assessment-interface principles

The applications should carry forward the usability lessons developed through TRACE:

  • Short, direct questions with compact and consistent response controls.
  • Progressive explanations that remain hidden until requested.
  • Explanation pop-ups displayed above adjacent controls, closed by outside click or Escape.
  • Plain-language labels before legal or technical terminology.
  • Visible focus states and no reliance on colour alone.
  • Keyboard access to journey nodes, variant records and scenario controls.
  • Print outputs that retain structure without depending on interactive behaviour.

Known limitations

The current pages have undergone automated structural and rendering checks, but they have not completed a formal WCAG conformance audit, screen-reader testing across platforms or usability testing with disabled users. Conceptual diagrams may require further work to support complex keyboard editing in the eventual applications.

Reporting a problem

Accessibility problems or requests for an alternative format should be sent to contact@digidata.uk. Please identify the page, browser, assistive technology and task where possible.

Target.

Production applications should aim for WCAG 2.2 AA, supported by independent testing and documented exceptions where a complex visual editor requires an alternative workflow.
