Accessibility settings
What are accessibility settings?
Accessibility settings in Site24x7 are designed to help users personalize their experience based on individual needs, including the requirements of those with visual, motor, cognitive, or learning disabilities.
These settings ensure that all users can effectively perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the Site24x7 application by adjusting visual elements, motion, and language preferences.
How do accessibility settings help everyone?
Building for accessibility is not just about compliance—it's about inclusion and usability for all. For instance:
-
Better color contrast improves readability in bright light.
-
Keyboard navigation aids keyboard-only users.
-
Clearer structure and language help multilingual speakers or users with cognitive differences.
-
Accessible content works better with assistive technologies, ensuring broader usability.
