Accessibility measures in place

Fixed
Color contrast
Boosted primary text on cream background to 7.2:1 (AAA). Muted text meets AA (4.6:1).
Fixed
Heading hierarchy
Audited /products, /athletes, /sourcing, /races — each page has exactly one h1. Subsequent headings descend without skipping.
Fixed
Image alt text
All product images, athlete headshots, and partner logos have descriptive alt text.
Fixed
Form labels
All rendered inputs on /subscribe, /ugc/submit, and /account/* pages have associated labels or aria-label attributes. /athletes/apply renders no form while intake is paused.
Fixed
Focus indicators
All interactive elements have :focus-visible outlines. Removed bare outline:none overrides.
Fixed
Skip-to-main link
Skip to main content link added as the first body element on all Genesee pages.
Fixed
ARIA live regions
Cart updates, product-filter results, form feedback, and toast notifications expose status changes to assistive technology.
Fixed
Keyboard navigation
Cart drawer, exit-intent overlay, and UGC submit form can be fully navigated with Tab + Enter + Escape.

Known remaining items

Planned
Authenticated journey fixtures
Account, subscription-management, rewards-history, and admin routes require isolated test identities before automated scans can cover them without exposing customer data.
ETA: Release-lane fixture work
Planned
Manual assistive-technology evidence
Automated checks are supplemented by keyboard review, but VoiceOver, NVDA, and TalkBack release evidence must be collected on their supported operating systems.
ETA: Before accessibility conformance claims expand

Our approach

We use automated testing (axe-core via Playwright) to scan representative public discovery, shopping, conversion, and trust journeys every week. Automated scans catch only part of WCAG; keyboard review and platform-specific assistive-technology testing remain necessary.

Our conformance target is WCAG 2.2 Level AA, with Level AAA improvements where technically feasible. Our automated and manual review program prioritizes the following success criteria; an automated scan alone does not establish conformance:

1.1.1 Non-text content (alt text)
1.3.1 Info and relationships (semantic HTML)
1.3.2 Meaningful sequence
1.4.3 Contrast ratio (minimum 4.5:1 for body, 7:1 for AAA)
2.1.1 Keyboard accessibility
2.4.3 Focus order
2.4.7 Focus visible
2.5.8 Target size (minimum)
3.3.1 / 3.3.2 Error identification and labels
4.1.1 Parsing (valid HTML)
4.1.2 Name, role, value (ARIA)
4.1.3 Status messages (aria-live)

Scan cadence

Automated axe-core scans run every Monday at 4am UTC across the configured representative route set on geneseenutrition.com. Only coherent runs are stored and shown in the internal accessibility dashboard.
