Website Accessibility Statement

1. Our Accessibility Commitment

WaveForge is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people of all abilities. We strive to provide an audio conversion workstation that is intuitive, operable, and robust for everyone, adhering to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards.

2. Implemented Accessibility Features

We have integrated specific design and structural standards into our interface:

• Complete Keyboard Navigation: All interactive elements — including URL input, paste button, sample rate segmented selectors, trimming controls, and download triggers — are fully operable using standard keyboard navigation (Tab, Shift+Tab, Enter, Space).
• Screen Reader Compatibility: Proper semantic HTML5 tags (<header>, <main>, <section>, <footer>) paired with explicit ARIA attributes (aria-live="polite" for conversion stages, aria-expanded for drawers, and descriptive aria-label tags) ensure full assistive voice announcements.
• High-Contrast Visual Hierarchy: High-contrast typography using the Inter font family on deep dark surfaces (#0c0d12 and #12151e) exceeds standard contrast ratio thresholds (4.5:1 for normal text).
• Motion & Vestibular Comfort: Visual animations and transitions respect operating system prefers-reduced-motion directives.

3. Continuous Auditing & Testing

Our team routinely audits interface usability across major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) alongside screen readers (VoiceOver, NVDA) and keyboard-only test workflows.
