Our Commitment to Accessibility
Everything Converter 169 is committed to ensuring that our comprehensive unit conversion platform is accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. We believe that everyone should have equal access to our 3,000+ converters across 21 categories, regardless of their abilities or the technologies they use to access the internet.
We are dedicated to providing an inclusive digital experience that empowers all users to perform accurate unit conversions for their educational, professional, and personal needs. This commitment extends to students with learning differences, professionals with various abilities, and anyone who relies on assistive technologies to navigate the web.
Accessibility Standards
Everything Converter 169 strives to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards. These internationally recognized guidelines provide a framework for making web content more accessible to people with disabilities, including those who are blind or visually impaired, deaf or hard of hearing, have motor disabilities, or have cognitive disabilities.
We regularly review and update our platform to ensure compliance with these standards and to incorporate best practices for web accessibility. Our goal is to provide an experience that is not only compliant with accessibility standards but also intuitive and user-friendly for all users.
Key Accessibility Features
Our platform includes several key accessibility features designed to support users with diverse needs:
Keyboard Navigation: All interactive elements on our website can be accessed using only a keyboard, ensuring that users who cannot use a mouse can still navigate and use our converters effectively. We have implemented logical tab order and keyboard shortcuts to make navigation efficient and intuitive.
Screen Reader Compatibility: Our website is designed to work seamlessly with popular screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver. We use semantic HTML, proper heading structures, and descriptive labels to ensure that screen readers can accurately convey information to users.
High Contrast and Color Considerations: We have designed our interface with sufficient color contrast to ensure readability for users with visual impairments. We do not rely solely on color to convey information and provide alternative indicators where needed.
Responsive Design: Our platform is fully responsive and works effectively across different devices and screen sizes, accommodating users who may need to zoom in or use mobile devices with accessibility features.
Specific Accessibility Enhancements
We have implemented numerous specific enhancements to improve accessibility across our platform:
Form Accessibility
All input fields in our converters include proper labels and instructions. We provide clear error messages and validation feedback to help users understand how to correct any input errors. Our forms are designed to work effectively with assistive technologies and include helpful hints and descriptions where appropriate.
We have ensured that all form elements are properly associated with their labels and that users can navigate through forms using keyboard commands. Required fields are clearly marked, and we provide helpful instructions for users who may need additional guidance.
Navigation and Structure
Our website uses a logical heading structure (H1, H2, H3, etc.) to organize content in a way that is easy to understand and navigate using assistive technologies. We provide skip links to allow users to bypass repetitive navigation elements and jump directly to the main content.
All links include descriptive text that explains their purpose, and we avoid using generic phrases like "click here" or "read more." Our navigation is consistent across all pages, making it easier for users to learn and use our platform effectively.
Visual and Audio Content
We provide alternative text for all images and visual elements that convey information. Our color scheme and typography are designed to be readable by users with various visual impairments, including color blindness and low vision.
Any audio content on our platform includes captions or transcripts where appropriate. We ensure that multimedia elements do not auto-play and that users have control over audio and video playback.
Assistive Technology Compatibility
Everything Converter 169 has been tested with various assistive technologies to ensure compatibility and usability:
Screen Readers
Our platform is compatible with popular screen readers including JAWS (Job Access With Speech), NVDA (NonVisual Desktop Access), and VoiceOver (Mac/iOS). We regularly test our platform with these tools to ensure that all functionality is accessible to users who rely on screen readers.
We use ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) labels and descriptions to provide additional context for screen reader users, particularly for interactive elements and dynamic content updates that occur during conversions.
Voice Recognition Software
Our platform is designed to work effectively with voice recognition software such as Dragon NaturallySpeaking. All interactive elements have accessible names that can be easily referenced by voice commands, and our interface provides clear visual feedback for voice-controlled navigation.
Keyboard and Switch Navigation
Users who rely on keyboard navigation or switch devices can access all functionality on our platform. We have implemented proper focus management and provide visual indicators for keyboard focus to help users understand their current location on the page.
Testing and Validation
We conduct regular accessibility testing using both automated tools and manual testing procedures. Our testing process includes automated accessibility scanners, manual testing with assistive technologies, keyboard-only navigation testing, and color contrast validation.
We also engage with users who have disabilities to gather feedback about their experiences with our platform. This user feedback is invaluable in identifying areas for improvement and ensuring that our accessibility efforts are effective in practice.
Continuous Improvement
Accessibility is an ongoing commitment, not a one-time effort. We continuously monitor and improve our platform's accessibility features based on user feedback, changes in accessibility standards, and advances in assistive technology.
We regularly update our platform to address any accessibility issues that are identified and to incorporate new accessibility features that can benefit our users. Our development team receives regular training on accessibility best practices to ensure that accessibility considerations are integrated into all aspects of our platform development.
Known Limitations
While we strive to make our platform fully accessible, we acknowledge that there may be some limitations or areas where we can improve. We are committed to addressing these limitations and welcome feedback from users who encounter accessibility barriers.
Some complex mathematical calculations and specialized unit conversions may require additional context or explanation for users with certain cognitive disabilities. We are working to provide clearer instructions and educational content to support all users in understanding and using our conversion tools effectively.

We welcome feedback from users about the accessibility of our platform. If you encounter any accessibility barriers or have suggestions for improvement, please contact us. We are committed to addressing accessibility concerns promptly and effectively.

Accessibility Training and Awareness
Our team receives regular training on accessibility best practices, disability awareness, and the importance of inclusive design. We believe that creating an accessible platform requires not just technical compliance but also a deep understanding of how people with disabilities interact with technology.
We stay informed about developments in accessibility standards, assistive technology, and inclusive design practices to ensure that our platform continues to serve all users effectively. Our commitment to accessibility extends beyond compliance to creating genuinely inclusive experiences.
Third-Party Content and Services
While we strive to ensure that all content and services on our platform are accessible, we may occasionally use third-party services or content. We work with our third-party providers to ensure that they meet the same accessibility standards we apply to our own content.
If you encounter accessibility issues with third-party content or services on our platform, please let us know so that we can work with our providers to address these issues.

Our platform is designed to be accessible on mobile devices, including smartphones and tablets. We have implemented mobile-specific accessibility features such as appropriate touch target sizes, readable text at all zoom levels, and compatibility with mobile screen readers and other assistive technologies.
We regularly test our platform on various mobile devices and operating systems to ensure consistent accessibility across all platforms. Our responsive design ensures that accessibility features work effectively regardless of screen size or device type.
Legal Compliance
Everything Converter 169 is committed to complying with applicable accessibility laws and regulations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, and similar laws in other jurisdictions where our users are located.
We recognize that legal compliance is just the baseline for accessibility and strive to exceed minimum requirements to provide the best possible experience for all users. Our goal is to create a platform that is not just legally compliant but also genuinely inclusive and user-friendly.
