Notice of Accessibility

Last updated: August 25, 2025

The Hypersomnia Foundation is committed to digital accessibility. We want everyone to be able to use our website—https://www.hypersomniafoundation.org/—and we aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 Level AA.

Our standards and approach

  • We design, build, and review content against WCAG 2.0 AA.

  • We prioritize keyboard navigation, sufficient color contrast, meaningful link text, logical headings, alt text for images, form labels and errors, and accessible multimedia (captions/transcripts where applicable).

  • We audit new features before launch and regularly review key page templates and components.

Compatibility and technical specifications

  • This site is designed to work with current versions of major browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari) and with assistive technologies such as screen readers, screen magnifiers, and speech recognition tools.

  • The site relies on HTML, WAI-ARIA, CSS, and JavaScript to meet accessibility requirements.

Known limitations and alternatives

We strive for full conformance, but some content—especially older documents or third-party embeds (e.g., maps, donation widgets, or video players)—may not fully meet WCAG 2.0 AA. When this occurs, we will:

  • Provide an accessible alternative on request (for example, a tagged PDF, accessible HTML version, or transcript).

  • Work with vendors to improve accessibility or provide an interim workaround.

If you encounter an accessibility issue, please let us know so we can fix it.

Feedback and contact information

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of our website. We typically respond within 2 business days.

When you contact us, please include:

  • The page URL and a brief description of the issue

  • Your browser/assistive technology, if relevant

  • Any helpful screenshots or steps to reproduce

Continuous improvement

Accessibility is an ongoing effort. We review our site regularly, train our content editors on accessible publishing practices, and include accessibility in our procurement criteria for third-party tools and services.
