Accessibility Statement

1. Our Commitment

 

Shibé Jewels is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards. We believe that everyone should be able to shop for beautiful jewelry easily and independently.

 

2. Conformance Status

 

We strive to conform as closely as possible to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities.

 

The following measures are in place to support our accessibility commitment:

  • Design Standards: We have integrated accessibility into our core development and design processes.

  • Expert Review: We conduct periodic internal and external accessibility audits of our website.

  • Employee Training: Key personnel involved in website content creation and development receive accessibility training.

 

3. Key Accessibility Features Implemented

 

We have implemented the following features to ensure an optimal user experience:

  • Alternative Text (Alt Text): All decorative and informative images, especially product photos, include descriptive alt text so users relying on screen readers can understand the content and visual details.

  • Keyboard Navigation: The website can be navigated and all functions (including adding items to the cart and checkout) can be performed using only a keyboard, without relying on a mouse.

  • Clear Headings: Content is structured using proper HTML headings (<h1>, <h2>, etc.) to provide a clear hierarchy for screen readers.

  • Color Contrast: We ensure sufficient color contrast between text and background elements to make the content legible for users with low vision or color blindness.

  • Form Labels: All input fields (e.g., login, checkout forms) have explicit labels and instructions that are accessible to screen readers.

  • Resizable Text: Users can adjust the text size using standard browser controls without loss of content or functionality.

 

4. Technical Specifications

 

Accessibility of shibe-jewels.in relies on the following technologies to work with the combination of a user’s particular device and installed assistive technologies:

  • HTML

  • 5CSS

  • JavaScript

 

These technologies are relied upon for conformance with the accessibility standards used.

 

5. Known Limitations

 

Despite our best efforts, there may be certain areas where we are still working to improve accessibility. We are currently addressing the following limitations:

  • Third-Party Widgets: Some third-party review or chat widgets embedded on the site may not be fully compliant with WCAG 2.1 standards. We are actively seeking accessible alternatives or working with vendors to improve compliance.

  • Legacy Content: A small amount of older blog content may contain images with incomplete alt text. We are in the process of auditing and updating this archive.

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of Shibé Jewels. If you encounter accessibility barriers, please do not hesitate to contact us at shibejewel4u@gmail.com. We try to respond to feedback within 2-4 business days and will work with you to provide the information or access you need.
