Accessibility Statement

HiNote is committed to ensuring that hinote.com is accessible to everyone. We believe all of our visitors should be able to easily navigate and use our website, regardless of whether they rely on assistive technologies such as screen readers, magnifiers, voice recognition software, or switch technology.

We view accessibility not as a one-time project but as an ongoing commitment — one that is embedded into how we design, build, and maintain our website.

Our Accessibility Standard

We are committed to maintaining conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 Level AA (WCAG 2.1 AA) — the internationally recognized benchmark for web accessibility adopted by governments and organizations worldwide.

  • The WCAG 2.1 AA guidelines are published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and are recognized as the international standard measure of success for web accessibility.

  • Our site is designed and developed with these guidelines in mind from the ground up.

  • We conduct regular testing of our website to ensure we meet or exceed the applicable standard, including testing with assistive technologies commonly used by visitors.

  • We review and update our accessibility practices on an ongoing basis as technology, assistive tools, and accessibility standards evolve — including in anticipation of the forthcoming WCAG 2.2 and WCAG 3.0 standards.

What We Do to Support Accessibility

Our accessibility efforts include, but are not limited to:

  • Keyboard navigation: All interactive elements on our site can be accessed and operated using a keyboard alone.

  • Screen reader compatibility: We use semantic HTML and ARIA landmarks to ensure our content is properly announced by screen readers.

  • Text alternatives: We provide text alternatives for non-text content, including images and icons.

  • Color contrast: We maintain sufficient color contrast ratios across our site to support users with low vision or color blindness.

  • Resizable text: Content on our site can be resized up to 200% without loss of functionality or content.

  • No flashing content: We avoid content that flashes more than three times per second, which can trigger seizures in sensitive users.

Disclaimer

Please be aware that our efforts to maintain accessibility and usability are ongoing. While we strive to make hinote.com as accessible as possible, some issues may be encountered by different assistive technologies given the wide and varied range of such tools available. We cannot guarantee that every third-party tool, embedded content, or linked resource meets the same accessibility standards, and we are not responsible for the accessibility of third-party content referenced or linked from our site.

Where we identify issues that fall outside of third-party constraints, we will make all reasonable efforts to remediate them in a timely manner.
