Accessibility Statement

DisclosureIQ is committed to making this site usable for everyone, including people who rely on assistive technologies. Our target is WCAG 2.2 Level AA conformance across the public marketing surface, the report-generation flow, and the rendered Quick Look output. The team is actively working to close known gaps; this page documents both what is in place and what is not yet finished.

What we have implemented

• Skip-link from the top of every page to the primary application region.
• Keyboard-reachable address input, mode chips, and download controls.
• Visible focus indicators on interactive elements.
• Brokerage attribution and DRE number rendered as plain text, readable by screen readers.
• Live AI report streams to a region with progressive content; final HTML uses semantic headings, lists, and tables for assistive technology.
• Color palette intentionally tuned for AA contrast on the cream and navy surfaces.
• Privacy, Terms, Accessibility, and Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Info reachable from every footer.

Known gaps we are working on

These items are tracked in our internal audit and are scheduled for resolution. We are listing them here so users can plan accordingly and request accommodations.

• Modals lack complete ARIA role markup. The toolkit modal, the email-this-report modal, and the sample-report modal need role="dialog", aria-modal="true", and a stable aria-labelledby reference. The on-screen tour tooltip has role="dialog" but is missing aria-modal.
• Mode-selection chip group needs radiogroup semantics. The Compare vs. Quick Look chips visually behave like radio buttons but are not announced as a radiogroup.
• Hero search input does not toggle aria-expanded. When the address-suggest list opens, the input's aria-expanded attribute is currently hardcoded and not updated to reflect the suggest panel state.
• Reduced-motion support is incomplete. The animated background blobs continue to move when the operating system requests reduced motion. We are adding the prefers-reduced-motion guard.
• Touch-target sizing on mobile. Some chip controls fall slightly below the recommended 44 by 44 CSS pixel touch target on the smallest screens.
• Tour-overlay keyboard navigation. Escape closes the tour, but arrow-key advancement and consistent focus trapping inside the tooltip are still being added.
• Verify block placeholder character. Empty values render as a dash that some screen readers announce literally; we are migrating to a labeled placeholder span.

Assistive technologies tested

• VoiceOver on macOS Safari.
• VoiceOver on iOS Safari.
• NVDA on Windows Firefox and Chrome.
• Keyboard-only navigation across all primary flows.
• 200 percent and 400 percent text zoom in Safari and Chrome.

Conformance target

We aim for WCAG 2.2 Level AA. We are not yet claiming full conformance because of the open items listed above. We will update this statement as each item lands in production. The internal audit document is maintained alongside the codebase and is the source of truth for the engineering backlog.

Feedback and accommodations

If you encounter an accessibility barrier or need an accommodation to use DisclosureIQ, please email matt@matthewsmithrealty.com. We aim to respond within 5 business days, prioritize a fix, and provide an interim alternative where possible (for example, sending a generated report by email rather than asking you to interact with the on-screen modal).

Legal

This statement is provided in good faith. It is not a substitute for an accessibility conformance report (ACR) or VPAT. We will publish an ACR after the open items above are resolved.
