Last updated: January 2025
1. Our Commitment to Accessibility
Lasolo Design Group, LLC is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards.
We believe that websites should be accessible to all users, regardless of their abilities or the technology they use to access the web. This commitment extends to our website, lasolodesign.com, and all digital content we create.
2. Conformance Status
We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities and more user-friendly for everyone.
The guidelines have three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. We are working toward Level AA conformance, which addresses the most common barriers for users with disabilities.
