Accessibility Statement
Last updated: April 18, 2026
1. Our Commitment
DayLynx is designed to be usable by everyone involved in childcare — directors, teachers, and parents — regardless of ability. Our target is conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, across both the public marketing site and the DayLynx application.
Accessibility is reviewed as part of every feature launch. New UI work is checked for keyboard operability, color contrast, focus management, and compatibility with the assistive technologies listed below before it ships.
2. Supported Assistive Technologies
We test DayLynx against the following combinations on a recurring basis. Older or unlisted combinations may still work but are not part of our standard test matrix:
- Screen readers: NVDA and JAWS on Windows, VoiceOver on macOS and iOS, TalkBack on Android.
- Browsers: recent versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari.
- Keyboard-only navigation using Tab, Shift+Tab, Enter, Space, and arrow keys.
- Operating-system zoom and text scaling up to 200%, and browser zoom up to 400%.
- High-contrast and dark modes via the OS or the product's built-in dark mode.
- Reduced motion. We honor the
prefers-reduced-motionsetting to suppress scroll-triggered animations.
3. Design Practices
Current features built with these practices in mind:
- Semantic HTML structure (landmarks, headings, lists, buttons, links)
- Visible keyboard focus on every interactive element
- Touch and click targets sized to at least 44×44 pixels
- Text and interactive controls meeting a 4.5:1 contrast ratio against their background
- Descriptive labels on icon-only buttons and form inputs
- Alt text on content images; decorative images marked as such
- Form errors announced to assistive technology, not only shown in red
- Skip-to-content mechanism on long pages
4. Known Limitations
We track accessibility issues publicly with the same urgency as functional bugs. At the time of this statement, we have no known WCAG 2.1 AA blockers on the marketing site. If you encounter a gap — particularly one we haven't documented here — please report it so we can fix it quickly. We will update this section as issues are identified and resolved.
5. Report an Accessibility Issue
If something on DayLynx isn't working for you — a control you can't reach with a keyboard, text you can't read at high zoom, a page your screen reader can't parse — we want to hear about it and fix it.
Email accessibility@daylynx.com. Please include:
- The URL or page where the issue occurred
- A description of the problem and what you were trying to do
- The browser, operating system, and assistive technology you are using
We aim to acknowledge reports within 2 business days and to confirm a resolution target within 10 business days. We do not require you to use a specific format or technical vocabulary — a screenshot or recording is welcome but not required.
6. Alternative Access
If you need information from DayLynx in an alternate format while we investigate an accessibility issue, contact accessibility@daylynx.com and we will provide it in a usable format — large print, plain text, or a voice summary by phone — at no cost to you.
7. Formal Complaints
We treat every accessibility report as a priority and would like to resolve your concern directly. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may file a complaint with the U.S. Access Board or the applicable regulator in your jurisdiction.
