Accessibility Statement

Every Quacker should be able to use this site, whether you read it with a screen reader, get around it with a keyboard, or zoom the text way up. Kosher Duck Revolution is an initiative of the Atlanta Israel Coalition, Inc., and this statement covers kosherduckrevolution.com.

What We Aim For

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. The World Wide Web Consortium publishes them, and they are the standard most public and nonprofit sites in the United States and Europe work to.

What the Site Does

• A skip link and real headings. Every page starts with a link that jumps past the menu, and its headings run in order, so a screen reader can move through a page the way your eyes would.
• Words for the pictures. Sighting photos carry a description. Pictures that are only decoration are marked so a screen reader passes over them.
• The map in words, too. The sightings map has a written list of the latest sightings and a list by state beside it, so you can follow where the ducks have been without the map.
• Color and contrast. Text meets the AA contrast ratios, and links in running text are underlined, so color is never the only clue.
• Keyboard and touch. Menus, buttons, and forms are built to work from a keyboard, with a visible focus outline, and to be big enough for a thumb.
• Calm motion. If your device asks for reduced motion, the testimonial slider and the other moving parts hold still.

Where It Falls Short

When you pay for ducks, the checkout page is Stripe's, and Stripe is responsible for it. If it stops you buying a duck, tell us and we'll find you another way.

Photos come in from Quackers all over the world, and a new one can go up before its description is as good as it should be. If you spot one, let us know.

How to Tell Us

If something on the site gets in your way, or you need anything from it in another format, email shalom@kosherduckrevolution.com. We'll reply within five business days, and if we can't fix it right away we'll get you what you came for some other way.

When We Look Again

We check the whole site against these guidelines once a year, every November, and again after any redesign. Between those checks, an automated accessibility test runs on our main pages before each full release of the site.
