Our Commitment

Jock Brocas is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience. We actively work to ensure that our digital services meet or exceed the requirements of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA.

Accessibility is not a compliance exercise for us. It is part of how a professional website should operate — and we hold ourselves to that standard.

Conformance Status

Partially Conformant — WCAG 2.1 Level AA

Jock Brocas is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 at Level AA. Partially conformant means that some portions of content do not yet fully conform to the accessibility standard, and we are actively working to address those areas.

WCAG 2.1 defines how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities. It covers content that is perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust. Level AA is the accepted standard for ADA compliance in the United States.

Accessibility Tools

Jock Brocas deploys ADA Shield by Help Lawyer, a WCAG 2.1 AA compliance widget built for professional websites. The floating accessibility button — visible on every page — gives visitors direct control over 12 display and navigation adjustments.

  • Text size adjustment
  • High contrast mode
  • Dark mode
  • Monochrome display
  • Dyslexia-friendly font
  • Increased text spacing
  • Increased line height
  • Link underline enforcement
  • Reading guide line
  • Pause all animations
  • Large cursor mode
  • Enhanced focus indicators

All preferences are saved automatically and persist across page loads. The widget also applies background improvements on every page: a skip-to-content link, lang attribute on the HTML element, and alt attributes on decorative images.

Technical Specifications

This website relies on the following technologies for its accessibility implementation:

  • HTML5 semantic markup
  • WAI-ARIA roles and attributes
  • CSS3 accessible color contrast
  • JavaScript accessibility widget
  • localStorage preference persistence
  • Skip navigation links

The ADA Shield widget is designed to operate alongside modern assistive technologies including JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. It does not interfere with screen reader operation and applies ARIA labels to all its own interactive elements.

Known Limitations

We are transparent about areas where conformance is not yet complete. The following are known and are being addressed as part of ongoing site development:

  • Some older PDF documents may lack full accessibility tagging. These are being updated on a rolling basis.
  • Third-party embedded content including payment processing and booking widgets is subject to those providers' own accessibility standards.
  • Some video content may not yet include full captions. New video content published from May 2026 onwards will include captions as standard.

If you encounter a limitation not listed here, please contact us. User-reported issues are the fastest route to resolution.

Contact Form

Use our contact page and note "Accessibility" in your subject. This routes directly to our accessibility review process.

When reporting an issue, please include the page URL, a description of the problem, and the assistive technology you are using if applicable.

Formal Complaints Process

If you are not satisfied with our response to an accessibility report, you have the right to contact the relevant enforcement authority in your jurisdiction.

In the United States, complaints regarding ADA Title III digital accessibility can be directed to the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division at www.ada.gov. For users in the European Union, national equality bodies in your member state handle formal complaints under the European Accessibility Act.

We encourage direct contact with us first. Issues are resolved most quickly through direct dialogue.
