Baaed FREE SEO Suite is committed to making its website usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. This statement describes the standards we follow, the current accessibility status of the Service, and how to contact us if you encounter a barrier.
1. Conformance Target
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). WCAG defines requirements for designers and developers to make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities — including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, and neurological impairments.
Conformance Level AA is the standard most widely cited in U.S. and EU accessibility law, including:
- U.S. Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act (as updated in 2017).
- U.S. Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), as interpreted by the U.S. Department of Justice.
- EU Directive 2016/2102 on the accessibility of public-sector websites.
- European Accessibility Act (Directive (EU) 2019/882), entering force June 28, 2025.
- UK Equality Act 2010.
2. Conformance Status
Baaed FREE SEO Suite is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. "Partially conformant" means that some parts of the content do not yet fully conform to the standard. We are actively working to identify and resolve those gaps.
3. Accessibility Features Already in Place
- Semantic HTML. Pages use proper headings, landmarks, lists, and form labels so assistive technologies can navigate efficiently.
- Keyboard navigation. All interactive controls are reachable and operable using a keyboard. Skip-to-content links are provided on every page.
- Visible focus indicators. Keyboard focus is visually highlighted on links, buttons, and form fields.
- Colour contrast. Text and interactive elements meet the WCAG 2.1 AA minimum contrast ratios (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text).
- Resizable text. Text scales up to 200% without loss of content or functionality.
- Dark mode. A dark colour scheme is available for users who find lighter backgrounds painful or distracting.
- Alt text. Meaningful images include descriptive alternative text. Decorative images are marked appropriately.
- Form labels and error messages. Form inputs have programmatically-associated labels; validation errors are announced clearly.
- ARIA where appropriate. ARIA attributes are used to expose state and structure that HTML alone cannot, but only where native HTML is insufficient.
- Reduced-motion support. Animations respect the
prefers-reduced-motionmedia query.
4. Known Limitations
Despite our efforts, some content may not yet be fully accessible:
- User-submitted content. Content uploaded or submitted by users (e.g. images analysed by tools, screenshots in reports) may lack alt text or other accessibility metadata. We provide tooling to add it but cannot guarantee user submissions are accessible.
- Third-party content. Embedded content from third parties (e.g. YouTube videos, fetched WHOIS records, AdSense ads) is governed by the third party's accessibility practices, which we do not control.
- Generated documents. PDF reports we generate strive for tagged-PDF accessibility but may not always be fully tagged for screen readers; an HTML version of every report is also available.
- Older tool pages. Some tool pages were built before our current accessibility standard and may have minor non-conformances. We are migrating these on an ongoing basis.
5. Compatibility With Assistive Technologies
We test the Service with the following recent versions of browsers and assistive technologies:
- Screen readers: NVDA (Windows), JAWS (Windows), VoiceOver (macOS, iOS), TalkBack (Android).
- Browsers: the latest two stable versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
- Operating systems: recent versions of Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and major Linux distributions.
- Voice control: Voice Control (macOS/iOS), Voice Access (Android), Dragon NaturallySpeaking (Windows).
If you use older or less common assistive technology and encounter a barrier, please let us know — we want to support you.
6. Assessment Approach
We assess the accessibility of the Service through:
- Automated testing integrated into our development pipeline (axe-core, Lighthouse).
- Manual keyboard-only walkthroughs of every newly released page.
- Periodic screen-reader testing of high-traffic pages.
- User feedback received via the channel below.
7. Feedback and Reporting Barriers
We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of Baaed FREE SEO Suite. Please let us know if you encounter accessibility barriers:
- Email: info@baaed.com with the subject line "Accessibility".
- Web form: our contact page.
When reporting an issue, please include:
- The URL of the page where the barrier exists.
- A description of the barrier (what you tried to do, what happened, what you expected).
- The browser, operating system, and assistive technology you were using.
We aim to acknowledge accessibility reports within 2 business days and to resolve confirmed issues within 30 days for high-impact barriers and within a reasonable time for lower-impact barriers.
8. Formal Complaint Procedure
If you are not satisfied with our response, you may escalate the matter to the relevant authority:
- United States: U.S. Department of Justice ADA Information Line.
- European Union: the national accessibility-monitoring body of your member state under Directive (EU) 2016/2102.
- United Kingdom: the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EASS).
9. Continuous Improvement
Accessibility is a process, not a one-time project. We commit to:
- Treating accessibility as a release-blocking criterion for new features.
- Reviewing this Statement at least annually and updating it when material changes occur.
- Including disabled users in user research and beta testing.
- Training our engineering and design staff in accessible-by-default development.
