Our websites are built with accessibility and standards-compliance in mind. By fully separating content from design using CSS and an MVC framework, our sites not only degrade gracefully to screen readers, but are also easily convertible to display on future mobile internet devices such as PDAs.

 

DDA

The DDA "makes it unlawful for a service provider to discriminate against a disabled person by refusing to provide any service which it provides to members of the public"

cross-browser support

Our sites are tested in the most common web browsers to make sure that they will appear as they were intended to.

css

By using stylesheets and frameworks where appropriate, our sites can be converted to display on almost any device or platform when required.

  • A screen reader is a piece of assistive software which interprets a website and presents the result to the website visitor as speech or Braille in some cases. This means that people who are blind, visually-impaired or have difficulty reading can navigate and digest the content of a website.

    The ease in which a screen reader can interpret a website is dependent on the way the site has been constructed. For this reason, our sites are built using standards-compliant CSS/XHTML that can be scanned by screen readers.
  • PCI (Payment Card Industry) compliance involves a set of regulations required for companies who store, process or transmit Credit/Debit cardholder data. There are four PCI categories that your company could fall into depending on how many transactions a year you process;

    Level 1 - over 6 million annual transactions
    Level 2 - between 150,000 and 6 million annual transactions
    Level 3 - between 20,000 and 150,000 transactions
    Level 4 - less than 20,000 annual transactions

    Is your website PCI compliant?
