Our Commitment to Inclusive Access at Blissful Light

At Blissful Light, we are dedicated to ensuring everyone can experience our digital content's full beauty and ease. We firmly believe in creating an inclusive online environment where all our users can effortlessly access information, services, and features regardless of their abilities.

We are dedicated to the ongoing enhancement of our website's accessibility, aiming to meet recognised standards and guidelines. Our goal is to provide every visitor a seamless and user-friendly experience, ensuring our website is navigable, readable, and interactive for all.

How We Are Working Towards Accessibility

To achieve this, Blissful Light is working towards our goal of conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1.

We have partnered with AccessEz (a Shopify app) to implement key technical accessibility features. AccessEz shares our core values of inclusivity and equality, and their comprehensive suite of features positions them as a leading provider in this field.

AccessEz's technology is built upon the principles of WCAG 2.1, which includes Level A, AA, and AAA conformance levels. While AccessEz actively works towards the highest standards, our website is currently considered partially compliant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. We acknowledge this and are actively working to improve our compliance.

Keyboard Navigation Enhancements: We have recently implemented updates to our website's theme to ensure improved keyboard navigation, allowing users who cannot use a mouse to navigate interactive elements more effectively.

Our Accessibility Policy will be regularly reviewed and updated to reflect ongoing improvements.
