Accessibility Statement

Criflet is committed to making https://criflet.com usable by as many people as reasonably possible, including people who use assistive technologies or have visual, hearing, motor, cognitive, or other accessibility needs.

The website is operated by Ali Ahsan under the business name Criflet. Criflet aims to design, build, and maintain the website in alignment with the principles of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA.

This is an ongoing commitment. This statement does not claim that every page or feature has been independently audited or is free from all accessibility barriers.

The website is intended to allow visitors to navigate using a keyboard, zoom content without losing essential information, use common screen readers, access forms with associated labels, identify focus position, understand form errors, reduce non-essential motion where supported, and access the website on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.

Criflet's visual system aims to provide dark text on light surfaces, sufficient contrast for body text and controls, visible hover and focus states, readable line spacing, responsive font sizes, limited line length for long-form content, and clear separation between headings, paragraphs, cards, and forms.

The primary accent color should not be the only indicator of state or meaning. Text placed on the primary orange-red accent should use a sufficiently dark foreground where needed for contrast.

Interactive elements should be reachable and usable through keyboard input, including navigation links, menus, buttons, form controls, accordions, dialogs, cookie settings where active, and project-form navigation.

Complex custom interactions should provide an accessible keyboard alternative.

The Contact and Discuss Your Project forms aim to include persistent visible labels, instructions where needed, clear required and optional indicators, logical tab order, grouped related fields, accessible validation, error messages that identify the affected field, preservation of entered information after validation errors where practical, clear submission confirmation, sufficient time to complete the form, and no requirement to use a mouse.

Placeholder text should not replace a proper label.

Meaningful images should include concise alternative text appropriate to their purpose. Complex workflow or architecture diagrams should be supported by nearby text or an equivalent explanation. Decorative visuals should use empty alternative text or be hidden from assistive technologies where appropriate.

If video or audio content is added, Criflet should provide suitable support such as captions, transcripts, accessible controls, and no forced autoplay with sound.

Criflet uses motion only where it supports communication or interaction. The website should respect the user's prefers-reduced-motion setting.

When reduced motion is requested, non-essential effects should be removed or simplified, including large entrance animations, parallax, animated counters, continuously moving decorative elements, and complex hero transitions. The website should avoid flashing content that could create a seizure risk.

Some accessibility limitations may arise from third-party services, embeds, or platforms that Criflet does not fully control, such as maps, video players, social-media embeds, scheduling tools, external forms, or document viewers.

Criflet aims to select accessible providers and provide an alternative method where reasonably possible. If an external feature creates a barrier, contact Criflet so another way to access the information or complete the task can be considered.

A complete independent accessibility audit has not been completed for the website. Known limitations should be listed here after testing identifies a specific affected page, feature, alternative, and remediation status.

If you encounter a barrier that affects access to primary content or contact methods, please report it so Criflet can investigate and provide a practical alternative where reasonably possible.

The website is designed for current versions of commonly used browsers and devices. Accessibility may be reduced on unsupported or outdated browsers, browsers with JavaScript disabled where an interactive feature requires it, third-party embedded tools outside Criflet's control, or unusual browser and assistive-technology combinations that have not been tested.

Core content and direct contact details should remain available wherever reasonably possible.

Criflet aims to review accessibility through a combination of keyboard-only testing, automated accessibility tools, color-contrast testing, responsive testing, semantic-structure review, form validation testing, reduced-motion testing, screen-reader checks where practical, and manual inspection.

Automated tools alone cannot confirm full accessibility. Accessibility should be reviewed before public launch, after major design or navigation changes, when new interactive components are introduced, when a reported barrier is fixed, and periodically as the website evolves.

Criflet welcomes accessibility feedback. If you cannot access information, cannot complete a form, encounter a keyboard barrier, find insufficient contrast, need content in another accessible format, or experience a problem with an interactive element, email hello@criflet.com with the subject Accessibility Feedback - Criflet.

Please include, where possible, the page URL, the feature or content affected, the device and browser used, assistive technology used if relevant, a brief description of the problem, and the format or alternative that would help.

When an accessibility issue is reported, Criflet aims to acknowledge the report, understand the affected task, reproduce the issue where possible, identify a temporary alternative where appropriate, assess and prioritize remediation, and communicate an update when reasonably possible.

Accessibility is part of Criflet's design and development approach, not a one-time checklist. As the website grows, Criflet intends to include accessibility in component design, use accessible patterns for new pages, avoid unnecessary barriers, improve identified issues, review third-party tools before adoption, and update this statement when practices or limitations change.
