Accessibility Statement

Salty Paws is committed to making our website usable and welcoming for everyone, including people with disabilities. We design and develop with accessibility in mind, and we work to continually improve the experience for every visitor.

Our standards

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, the internationally recognized standard for digital accessibility. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive impairments.

What we’ve done

To make our site easier to use:

  • Descriptive image alt text — every product image and decorative graphic carries alternative text so screen readers can convey what’s shown.
  • Color contrast — text and interactive elements meet or exceed WCAG AA contrast ratios.
  • Keyboard navigation — site navigation, product browsing, and checkout work with a keyboard alone (no mouse required).
  • Resizable text — pages remain readable at 200% zoom.
  • Semantic structure — headings, landmarks, and labels follow standard HTML conventions for assistive technologies.
  • Labeled forms — every input field has a clear, programmatic label.

Ongoing work

Accessibility is a continuous process, not a finish line. We regularly audit our site, test with assistive tools, and improve as we find gaps. If you encounter content or features that present barriers, we want to hear about it — your feedback directly shapes what we fix next.

Compatibility

Our site is designed to work with recent versions of major browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge) and common assistive technologies, including screen readers (VoiceOver, NVDA, JAWS) and voice control software.

Third-party content

Some content on our site is provided by third parties — for example, embedded video players, payment processors, or social media widgets. While we do our best to choose accessible partners, we don’t control all of their content. If you have trouble accessing third-party content on our site, please let us know and we’ll do what we can to help.

How to report an issue

If you have difficulty using any part of saltypawscollars.com, please reach out. We take every report seriously and aim to respond within five business days.
