Accessibility Statement
We want this site to work well for everyone, whatever device or assistive technology you use. Here's where we stand, and how to tell us when we fall short.
Last updated: 3 August 2026
Our commitment
Stef's Time is committed to making this website accessible to as many people as possible, including those who rely on assistive technologies such as screen readers, keyboard navigation, or browser zoom. Accessibility is not a box we tick once; it is something we keep working at.
What we've done
- Semantic, structured HTML so screen readers can understand headings, lists, links, and landmarks. Every page has a single
mainregion and a heading outline that never skips a level. - A skip-to-content link as the first thing you reach with the Tab key, so you don't have to walk the whole menu on every page.
- Keyboard navigation for the interactive parts of the site, so a mouse isn't required. Menus and dialogs open, trap focus while they're open, close on Esc, and hand focus back where you left it.
- Respect for reduced-motion preferences. If your device is set to reduce motion, our animations quieten down automatically and scrolling stops animating.
- Readable colour contrast and text that scales when you zoom, without breaking the layout.
- A responsive design that adapts to phones, tablets, and desktops with no sideways scrolling.
- Descriptive text for meaningful images and clear labels on buttons and controls, with decorative graphics hidden from screen readers so they don't add noise.
The standard we aim for
We use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, level AA, as our benchmark. We aim to meet it across the site and to keep improving where we currently fall short.
How we check
Every page on this site — all of them, including each article in Insights — is run through automated accessibility testing, and it has to come back clean before we ship. Automated testing catches roughly a third of what matters, so we pair it with keyboard walkthroughs of the navigation, the contact builder, and the software dialogs.
Known limitations
We're honest about the gaps. Automated tests can't judge whether alternative text is genuinely useful or whether our wording is plain enough, and we have not yet completed a full screen-reader audit with a real user. Some article imagery is served from a third-party library we don't control. We're working through the rest over time.
Tell us where we fall short
If you hit a barrier on this site, or something is hard to use with your assistive technology, please tell us, it genuinely helps. Email info@stefstime.co.za or message us on WhatsApp, describe the problem and the page, and we'll do our best to fix it and to offer the information you needed another way in the meantime.
