Accessibility Statement
Last updated: July 9, 2026
SnapCV is committed to making our resume builder usable by everyone, including people who rely on assistive technology such as screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, or voice control.
Our standard
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA across the site and builder. This is an ongoing effort — some areas are more complete than others, and we're actively working through the gaps.
What we've done
- Semantic landmarks — <nav>, <main>,<footer> and descriptive alt text on template and preview images.
- Keyboard support — interactive controls (carousels, accordions, toggles) respond to Tab, Enter, Space — not mouse-only.
- Focus states & ARIA — visible focus indicators, aria-expanded,aria-label on collapsible sections (FAQ, builder panels).
- Color contrast — checked against WCAG AA (4.5:1 text, 3:1 graphics) for body text and primary buttons.
- Responsive & zoomable — layouts adapt to browser zoom (up to 200%) and text resizing without horizontal scroll.
- Form labels & error messages — all inputs have associated labels; validation errors linked to fields via aria-describedby.
- Skip links — skip to main content link at top of each page for keyboard users.
Known limitations
The drag-and-drop and live-preview editing steps in the resume builder are more complex to navigate by keyboard alone; we're improving these with arrow-key support and ARIA live regions. Some third-party embeds (e.g. payment checkout, AI chat) follow their own provider's accessibility standards, which we don't directly control.
Testing & tools
We regularly test with:
- NVDA, JAWS, and VoiceOver screen readers
- Keyboard-only navigation (no mouse)
- Automated tools: axe, WAVE, Lighthouse
- Color contrast checkers (no red/green confusion)
