Accessibility Statement

The standard Weirmoon builds to, what has been done, the known gaps, and how to report a barrier and get help.

Weirmoon wants everyone to be able to read the site, use the account pages, and reach us. This page says what we aim for, what we have done, where we know we fall short, and how to tell us when something does not work for you.

Our target

We aim for WCAG 2.2 Level AA (the current Web Content Accessibility Guidelines published by the W3C, which include everything in WCAG 2.1 AA) across weirmoon.com. This is a standard we work to, not a certificate — the site is run by a very small team, and it has not had an independent audit.

How we check. We test the site with the axe-core automated checker against the WCAG 2.2 A and AA rules, at desktop and phone widths and at 320 pixels wide — most recently on the "last updated" date of this page — and the main journeys (navigation, reading, sign-up, sign-in, contact, and the story reader) are tried with a keyboard alone. Automated tools catch only some problems, so we also rely on reports from people who use the site.

What we have done

  • Keyboard access. Every page can be used with a keyboard. A "Skip to main content" link is the first stop on every page, focus is always visible, and after you follow a link inside the site, keyboard focus moves to the new page's content.
  • Structure. Pages use real headings, landmarks (header, navigation, main, footer), lists, and tables, so screen readers can move around them. Menus announce whether they are open or closed, and the current page is marked in the navigation.
  • Forms. Every form field has a visible label that is programmatically tied to it, required fields are flagged to assistive technology, error and confirmation messages are announced when they appear, and fields ask browsers to offer autofill for name, email, and passwords.
  • Images. Editorial images carry descriptive alternative text — the site's build will not publish an article whose main image lacks it. Decorative icons are hidden from assistive technology.
  • Story reader. The reader lets you change text size, typeface (serif or sans), theme (night, sepia, paper), line width, line spacing, and the drop cap, and you can turn pages with the left and right arrow keys. Your settings are kept on your device.
  • Display lettering. Seven-segment and dot-matrix digits are used for numbers, dates, and a few large headings. They are real text, so screen readers and translation tools read them normally, and the body text, forms, and reading surfaces use ordinary, readable typefaces.
  • Motion. If your device is set to reduce motion, animations and transitions on this site are effectively turned off.
  • Video. Embedded videos do not load, and do not play, until you choose to play them.
  • Text. The site works when text is enlarged or the page is zoomed, and pages reflow on narrow screens. Fonts are served from weirmoon.com and never block reading.
  • Data. Benchmark figures are published in tables, and charts supplement those tables rather than replacing them.

Known limitations

We would rather tell you where the gaps are than pretend there are none:

  • Text over artwork. Automated contrast checks pass on the pages we test, but they cannot measure text placed over the large artwork on the home and game pages. Those areas use a dark overlay to keep text readable; tell us if any of it is hard to read for you.
  • Screen-reader testing has been limited. The site is built with standard HTML and tested automatically, but it has not yet had a full pass with each screen reader listed below.
  • Charts are built for sighted use. The numbers behind each one are in the tables on the same page, but the chart itself is not a full equivalent for non-visual use.
  • Embedded video players from YouTube and Twitch are third-party components; their accessibility is governed by those services, and we cannot add captions to a video we did not caption. Where we publish our own videos we will provide captions or a transcript.
  • Images on the store pages may have brief alternative text, because they come from product records rather than written articles.
  • Content protection. To discourage bulk copying of artwork, images on some pages cannot be dragged or saved with the right-click menu. This does not affect screen readers or keyboard use, and alternative text is unaffected. If it gets in the way of something you need, tell us and we will help.

Tell us about a barrier

If you cannot use part of the site, or need information in a different format, please tell us through the contact form with the subject "Accessibility". Say what you were trying to do, the page address, and, if you are willing, the browser and assistive technology you use. We will reply to the email address you give us, aim to acknowledge reports within 5 business days, and will either fix the problem or offer you another way to get the same information or service — for example, sending the content in a format that works for you — as soon as we reasonably can. The contact form is reachable from the footer of every page.

If you are not satisfied with our response, you may also contact the relevant authority where you live — for example, in the United States the Department of Justice's ADA information line, in the European Union the national body that enforces the European Accessibility Act, or in the United Kingdom the Equality Advisory and Support Service.

Technical notes

weirmoon.com is built with semantic HTML, React, and CSS, and relies on HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and WAI-ARIA to work. It is designed for current versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari, and for NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. Pages that carry long-form text are also delivered as static HTML, so the text can be read without JavaScript.
