We understand the importance of creating inclusive digital solutions catering to diverse user needs. FactR proudly affirms that our products are meticulously designed with key accessibility standards, ensuring an exceptional user experience for everyone.

Standard on Web Accessibility

In alignment with the Canadian Government's directives, FactR complies with the Standard on Web Accessibility. This standard sets out specific requirements for federal government websites, and we are dedicated to ensuring that our platform reflects these guidelines. From keyboard accessibility to assistive technologies such as voice assistants, we strive to make our platform accessible to everyone.

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)

FactR adheres to the globally recognized Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), a comprehensive set of principles aimed at making digital content accessible to individuals with varying abilities. Our commitment to WCAG guarantees that our platform is not only functional and feature-rich but also perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust for users of all backgrounds.

Standard on Accessibility and Employment

FactR understands the significance of creating inclusive workplaces. In line with the Standard on Accessibility and Employment, our platform addresses barriers related to employment. We provide the necessary tools and accommodations within our platform, empowering users with disabilities to perform their tasks effectively and seamlessly.

At FactR, ensuring accessibility isn't just a goal; it's a continuous commitment ingrained in our development process.

Our development team meticulously adheres to the WCAG, a globally recognized standard for web accessibility. We conduct thorough audits and assessments to ensure compliance with each WCAG success criterion, covering aspects such as perceivability, operability, understandability, and robustness.

To validate accessibility across various platforms and devices, we leverage industry-leading assistive technologies, including:

Windows Narrator: This built-in screen reader for Windows operating systems enables us to evaluate the accessibility of our platform for users who rely on auditory feedback.

Apple VoiceOver: Integrated into Apple devices, VoiceOver is a powerful screen reader that allows us to assess our platform's accessibility on macOS, iOS, and iPadOS.

Jaws: Widely used by individuals with visual impairments, Jaws is a screen reader that helps us test our platform's compatibility and usability with different web browsers and assistive technologies.

From the Canadian government accessibility website, the following outlines what the accessibility act recognizes.

The Accessible Canada Act recognizes the existing human rights framework that supports equality for people with disabilities in Canada. This includes:

  • the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms

  • the Canadian Human Rights Act, and

  • Canada’s commitments as a State Party to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities

The Accessible Canada Act builds on this framework through a proactive and systemic approach for identifying, removing and preventing barriers to accessibility.

The purpose of the Accessible Canada Act is to make Canada barrier-free by January 1, 2040. This involves identifying, removing and preventing barriers in federal jurisdiction in the following priority areas:

  • employment

  • the built environment (buildings and public spaces)

  • information and communication technologies

  • communication, other than information and communication technologies

  • the procurement of goods, services and facilities

  • the design and delivery of programs and services, and

  • transportation (airlines, as well as rail, road and marine transportation providers that cross provincial or international borders)

FactR prides itself on being compliant to these accessibility standards, for more information, click here.
