Accessibility Statement

Smart Commodity Trades is committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to all users, including persons with disabilities. We strive to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards, as recommended by the International Association of Accessibility Professionals (IAAP).

• Skip to main content link: Available at the top of every page for keyboard-only users
• Semantic HTML: Proper use of headings (h1–h3), landmarks (nav, main, footer), and ARIA roles
• Keyboard navigation: All interactive elements are fully operable via keyboard
• ARIA labels: Screen-reader-friendly labels on all navigation, icons, and interactive elements
• Focus indicators: Visible focus outlines on all interactive elements for keyboard users
• Colour contrast: Text and background colors meet WCAG AA minimum contrast ratios (4.5:1)
• Responsive design: Website is fully usable on mobile, tablet, and desktop devices
• Reduced motion: Animations are disabled for users with prefers-reduced-motion enabled
• Text scaling: Font sizes use relative units (rem) to respect browser font size preferences

• Perceivable: All content is presented in ways users can perceive (alt text, semantic structure, sufficient contrast)
• Operable: All functionality is available via keyboard; no time limits on critical functions
• Understandable: Language is set, navigation is consistent, errors are described clearly
• Robust: Content is compatible with current and future assistive technologies

Some areas that may not yet be fully optimized include older PDF documents and third-party embedded content (WhatsApp, Telegram links) which are subject to those platforms' own accessibility standards.
