OUR COMMITMENT
JIA Active is committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to everyone, regardless of ability, background, or technology. We believe that exceptional design should be fundamentally inclusive. We are continuously reviewing and upgrading our digital experience to ensure that no user is disadvantaged when interacting with our online store, in full alignment with our statutory duties under the UK Equality Act 2010.
STANDARDS WE FOLLOW
To assist us in making the JIA Active digital experience a positive one for everyone, we aim to conform our storefront to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards. These globally recognised benchmarks explain how to make web content more accessible to people with wide-ranging disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, learning, and neurological conditions.
ACCESSIBILITY FEATURES ON OUR SITE
To support an inclusive browsing experience, our platform implements the following technical features:
- Alternative Text: All meaningful imagery, lookbooks, and product photography include descriptive alternative (alt) text to assist screen readers.
- Contrast Ratios: Text and user interface elements meet or exceed WCAG 2.1 AA colour contrast requirements to aid readability.
- Keyboard Navigation: Our website structure allows users to fully navigate and operate the store using keyboard-only inputs.
- Text Flexibility: Font sizes can be enlarged using standard browser controls without breaking the website's layout or losing functionality.
- Form Optimisation: Contact forms, checkout inputs, checkboxes, and buttons are clearly labelled to assist screen reader software.
KNOWN LIMITATIONS & THIRD-PARTY CONTENT
While we strive to ensure every page of our website meets the highest accessibility standards, we recognise that some limitations may exist. As an online store powered by Shopify, we utilise certain third-party integrations, plug-ins, and automated e-commerce apps (such as specific payment gateways, interactive sizing charts, or social media feeds) to run our platform.
Because these external components are built and maintained by third-party providers, they may occasionally fall short of full WCAG 2.1 AA compliance. Furthermore, certain structural elements of the Shopify checkout flow are locked by the host platform for security compliance, limiting our ability to manually alter the underlying code. We regularly monitor these integrations and actively work with our digital partners to advocate for accessibility updates.
ALTERNATIVE FORMATS, FEEDBACK & CONTACT
If you experience any difficulty accessing any part of our website, or if you require any of our legal policies, sizing guides, or product descriptions in an alternative format (such as a plain text document), we are fully committed to making reasonable adjustments to support you.
