Accessibility and ADA Statement

Last updated 5 August 2026

We want HexMetrics to be usable by everyone, including people who use screen readers, keyboard navigation, magnification, or reduced motion.

Our target

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA. We say "aim to conform" deliberately: no independent audit has been carried out, so we do not claim conformance. Where this statement and the actual site disagree, the site is the fact and we want to hear about it.

What we do

  • Colour contrast is measured automatically against WCAG 1.4.3 across rendered pages, in both light and dark themes, rather than judged by eye.
  • Every interactive control is reachable and operable by keyboard, with a visible focus indicator.
  • A skip link goes straight to the main content.
  • Layouts reflow to narrow screens and to increased text size without loss of content.
  • Motion respects the prefers-reduced-motion setting.

Known gaps

Some data-dense surfaces, in particular the draft board and the wider statistics tables, carry a lot of information in a small space and are harder to use with a screen reader than the rest of the site. Some chart and radar visualisations convey shape that we have not fully expressed in text. We are working on both.

Legal framework

We treat the Americans with Disabilities Act, and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act where it applies, as the standard we are held to, and WCAG 2.2 AA as the practical measure of it.

Telling us about a barrier

Write to legal@hexmetrics.app describing the page and what you could not do. We aim to acknowledge within 5 business days and to give you a substantive answer, including a timeframe for a fix or an alternative way to accomplish the task, within 30 days.

If our response does not resolve the problem, say so in reply and ask for escalation. We will review it again and give you a written decision.
