Accessibility Statement

1. Our Commitment to Digital Accessibility

Online Income Calculator is dedicated to ensuring digital accessibility for individuals of all abilities. We continually improve the user experience for everyone and apply relevant accessibility standards to make financial forecasting clear, legible, and barrier-free.

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards established by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).

2. Measures Taken to Support Accessibility

To ensure the calculator is accessible to users with visual, motor, auditory, and cognitive disabilities, we have implemented the following technical features:

• Dual Slider & Companion Numeric Inputs: We recognize that precision sliders can pose difficulties for users with motor tremors or touch impairments. Every slider on our website is paired with a direct numeric companion number input, allowing keyboard typing as an easy alternative.
• High-Contrast Color Tokens: Text colors are rigorously tuned against their backgrounds, strictly exceeding the WCAG AA minimum contrast ratio of 4.5:1 for normal body text and 3:1 for large display headlines.
• Full Keyboard Navigability: All interactive elements, including toggles, preset buttons, currency selectors, and inputs, can be focused and triggered using standard keyboard shortcuts (Tab, Shift+Tab, Space, Enter, and Arrow keys).
• Visible Focus Indicators: Interactive controls feature high-visibility focus rings (focus rings in Electric Blue #3B3BFF) to assist keyboard-only navigators.
• Semantic HTML & ARIA Labels: Form inputs feature associated label elements, fieldset and legend groupings, and descriptive aria-label attributes for screen readers (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, and TalkBack).
• Responsive Scaling & Zoom: The interface accommodates up to 200% browser zoom without breaking layout geometry or obscuring calculation results.

3. Assistive Technology Compatibility

Our site is tested with modern operating systems and assistive utilities:

• Modern screen readers including Apple VoiceOver (macOS / iOS), NVDA and JAWS (Windows), and Google TalkBack (Android).
• Operating system high-contrast modes and screen magnification tools.
• Modern standards-compliant web browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge).

4. Continuous Improvement & Known Issues

While we strive for comprehensive accessibility, complex interactive data visualizations and dynamic real-time recalculations may occasionally present nuances across certain legacy assistive devices. We view accessibility as an ongoing journey and regularly audit our codebase to resolve friction points.
