Action
We are actively taking steps and devoting resources to further enhance the accessibility of our website and other technology. We have engaged outside vendors to test and improve the quality and accessibility of our technology. We continue to look for ways to improve the user experience. Our efforts are ongoing, and our specific activities completed or in-progress include:
WCAG
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 Level AA are considered by many to set an appropriate standard for website accessibility. Although we are not limited by or bound to any specific, single, standard, we test our website and make improvements as measured against the WCAG 2.0 Level AA standards laid down by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
Duties
We engage consultants and vendors who assist our own staff for the assigned purpose of promoting the accessibility of our website and other technologies.
Text Equivalents / AltText
Use of alternative text (alt text) and captions in relation to images, videos and multi-media content.
Site Structure
Use of headings, lists, paragraphs and other formatting features so that guests can more easily use the site with assistive technology.
Keyboard Access
Use functionality that operates through a keyboard interface, without requiring specific timings for individual keystrokes.
Consistent Structure
We aim to create pages, sites and apps with a consistent structure, to ease navigation.
Contrast
When choosing colors and site design, we consider the issue of contrast, to promote the accessibility of images and text.
Ongoing Effort
Although we are proud of the efforts that we have completed and are in-progress, we at Fidelity Bank view accessibility as an ongoing effort.
