1. Our Commitment

Gentle Care Dental is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, in accordance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA. We believe accessibility is an ongoing effort, not a checkbox — and we are continuously reviewing and improving the site.

We aim to meet or exceed the following standards:

• Sufficient color contrast for text and UI elements
• Keyboard-navigable interface with visible focus indicators
• Descriptive alternative text for images
• Semantic HTML with appropriate ARIA landmarks and labels
• Responsive layout usable across screen sizes and zoom levels
• Skip-to-content links on all pages

2. Known Limitations

We are aware of the following accessibility gaps currently being addressed:

• Some interactive components (e.g., image gallery, animated transitions) may not be fully operable with keyboard alone — fixes are in progress.
• Video or audio content added in the future will include captions and transcripts before publishing.
• Third-party embedded content (such as booking widgets) may have accessibility limitations outside our direct control; we will select vendors with accessibility commitments.

This list is updated as fixes ship. If you encounter a barrier not listed here, please let us know.

3. Assistive Technology

This site is designed to be compatible with the following assistive technologies:

• Screen readers (VoiceOver on macOS/iOS, NVDA and JAWS on Windows)
• Browser zoom up to 200% without loss of content or functionality
• Keyboard-only navigation
• High-contrast and forced-color display modes

Testing with specific assistive technology combinations is ongoing. If you experience an issue with a technology not listed, please report it using the contact below.
