​ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT
Accessibility Statement for Ryan’sViews
Effective Date: May 15, 2025
At Ryan’sViews, we are committed to making our digital storefront accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. As an Illinois-based business serving customers across the U.S., including Florida, we recognize and uphold both federal and state laws regarding digital accessibility.
Our Commitment
We strive to comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, as well as relevant state and federal regulations, including:
-
Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
-
Illinois Information Technology Accessibility Act (IITAA)
-
Florida Accessible Electronic and Information Technology (AEIT) standards
These frameworks collectively guide our development and design decisions to ensure equal access and a barrier-free experience for all users—regardless of ability.
Accessibility Features on Our Wix-Powered Website
Our website is built using Wix, a platform that supports strong accessibility practices. As part of our ongoing commitment, we take full advantage of the accessibility tools and structure provided by Wix, including:
-
Screen Reader Compatibility: Support for NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, and other assistive technologies.
-
ARIA Markup: Use of Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA) attributes to enhance interpretability by screen readers.
-
Keyboard Navigation: Full functionality via keyboard, including menus, search, forms, and checkout.
-
Alt Text for Images: Descriptive alternative text for visual and functional elements.
-
Consistent Heading Structure: Pages are logically organized with semantic HTML and heading tags.
-
Contrast and Scalability: Text and background contrast meets WCAG criteria; users can scale text without loss of content or usability.
-
Mobile-Friendly and Responsive: Optimized for desktops, tablets, and smartphones, maintaining accessibility across devices.
We routinely utilize Wix’s Accessibility Wizard to identify and remediate any accessibility barriers across the site.
Compliance with Illinois and Florida Laws
Illinois (IITAA Compliance)
As a business operating from Illinois, we align with the Illinois Information Technology Accessibility Act (IITAA), which requires information technology developed, purchased, or used by state entities to be accessible to people with disabilities. While Ryan’sViews is a private entity, we adopt IITAA standards to ensure best practices and equitable access in our digital environment.
Florida (AEIT Compliance)
For our users and customers in Florida, we recognize the Florida Accessible Electronic and Information Technology (AEIT) standards, which reflect Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act and WCAG guidelines. We ensure our digital content remains accessible to Florida residents as part of our broader accessibility mission.
Third-Party Content
Some third-party applications or widgets embedded in our site (e.g., live chat, payment processors) may not fully meet accessibility standards. We carefully select integrations with accessibility in mind and are actively working to minimize any barriers they may pose.
