Accessibility Statement

Last Updated: April 03, 2025

At The Tribalist, we believe the internet should be inclusive, equitable, and accessible to all. We are committed to ensuring that our website, https://thetribalist.com, provides a seamless experience for everyone, including individuals with disabilities.

Our Commitment to Accessibility

We strive to adhere to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA, a globally recognized standard for digital accessibility. Our team continuously works to improve usability for people with visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive disabilities through design, development, and testing best practices.

Accessibility Features on Our Website

To enhance accessibility, we have implemented the following measures:

1. Perceivable Content

• Text Alternatives: Images, icons, and non-text content include descriptive alt text where applicable.
• Adaptable Text: Users can adjust text size and spacing using browser settings.
• High Contrast Mode: Improved color contrast for better readability.
• Captions & Transcripts: Video and audio content (if applicable) will include captions or transcripts.

2. Operable Interface

• Keyboard Navigation: Full website functionality accessible via keyboard (Tab, Shift+Tab, Enter, Esc).
• Skip to Content Link: Allows users to bypass repetitive navigation menus.
• No Keyboard Traps: Ensures users can navigate without getting stuck.
• Consistent Navigation: Predictable layout and structure across all pages.

3. Understandable Information

• Clear Language: Content is written in plain, easy-to-understand language.
• Error Prevention & Correction: Forms include clear labels and error messages.
• Logical Structure: Proper heading hierarchy (H1, H2, H3) for screen reader compatibility.

4. Robust & Compatible Technology

• ARIA Landmarks: Enhanced screen reader navigation with ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) labels.
• Responsive Design: Adapts to different devices and screen sizes.
• Browser & Assistive Tech Support: Tested with major screen readers (JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver) and browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge).

Areas for Improvement

While we strive for full accessibility, some third-party integrations (such as embedded social media feeds or external payment processors) may not yet meet WCAG standards. We are actively working with vendors to improve these elements.

Third-Party Content Disclaimer

Some external content (e.g., ads, embedded videos, partner links) may not be fully accessible. We encourage third-party providers to prioritize accessibility and will work to replace non-compliant elements where possible.

Compliance Status

We aim for WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance and are actively working toward full conformance. While we have made significant progress, some areas may still require refinement.

Third-Party Limitations

Portions of our website may include embedded content (e.g., social media, payment processors) that we do not control. While we advocate for accessibility with third-party providers, we cannot guarantee their compliance.

Legal Disclaimers

1. No Guarantee of Full Compliance

While we strive for WCAG 2.1 AA compliance, achieving full accessibility across all content is an ongoing process. Some areas may require updates due to technical limitations or third-party dependencies.

2. No Legal Binding

This statement is provided for transparency and does not constitute a legally binding contract or warranty of compliance with ADA, Section 508, or other accessibility laws.

3. Third-Party Liability

The Tribalist is not responsible for the accessibility of third-party content (e.g., linked websites, embedded media) not hosted on our platform.

4. Good Faith Efforts

Our accessibility initiatives reflect good-faith efforts to remove barriers. We disclaim liability for inadvertent omissions and will address reported issues promptly.

5. Future Updates

This statement may be revised as standards evolve or new solutions become available.
