Adobe Commerce (Magento) Accessibility

As defined by the Guidelines, to achieve WCAC compliance, digital content must be perceivable, operable, understandable and robust in order to be accessible to all users.

AudioEye tests against W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 success criteria for levels A and AA. Our goal is to help customers achieve WCAG 2.2 AA conformance, which is the international industry standard.

While there are laws that specifically mention - and require - accessible digital content, some legislation is dependent upon the Court's interpretation. For example, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) does not specifically mention digital compliance, but Title III of the ADA does require that a "place of public accommodation" is accessible. Today, Courts are interpreting a place of public accommodation includes the Internet and are therefore ruling in favor of digital accessibility.

The answer varies by industry. Many organizations are required by law to make their digital content accessible. For others, Courts are overwhelmingly ruling in favor of accessibility. So, while the rule of law can be confusing, there's no question an accessible site reduces legal risk and opens a business to a larger consumer base.
