Accessibility Statement
Last updated: March 2026
I am committed to making eplemanski.com accessible to as many people as possible, including those using assistive technology or with visual, motor, cognitive, or other disabilities.
What I'm Doing
- Using semantic HTML5 elements throughout the site (
nav,main,article,aside,section, etc.) - Ensuring all interactive elements are keyboard-navigable
- Providing
aria-labelattributes on icon-only buttons and non-descriptive links - Adding
aria-hiddento decorative elements so screen readers skip them - Using sufficient color contrast ratios that meet or exceed WCAG 2.1 Level AA
- Writing descriptive alt text for all meaningful images
- Ensuring the site is functional and readable without JavaScript for core content
- Using
prefers-reduced-motionmedia query awareness in animations - Making sure form fields have visible, associated labels
- Managing focus correctly in interactive components like the mobile navigation
Target Standard
This site aims to conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA. Full conformance is an ongoing effort and not a one-time checkbox. I audit and improve the site regularly.
Known Limitations
Some third-party components -- including Stripe payment forms and embedded social media content -- may not fully conform to WCAG 2.1. I don't control the accessibility implementation of these external services, but I choose providers with reasonable accessibility track records.
Feedback
If you encounter any barriers on this site, I want to hear about it. I take accessibility reports seriously and will address legitimate issues as quickly as I can. Please email me directly:

When reporting an issue, it helps to include: the URL where you found the problem, what assistive technology you're using (if any), and a description of what you were trying to do.
