Accessibility Statement
Last Updated: July 2026 · Target Standard: WCAG 2.1 Level AA
1. Our Commitment
ItsMyApp.co.uk maintains a firm development commitment to achieving full Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standardisation across all NOTSPAM.uk interfaces. We believe that accessibility is not an optional feature — it is a foundational engineering requirement.
2. Technical Standards Implemented
Keyboard Navigation
✓ ImplementedAll interactive elements — buttons, links, message list items, and form controls — are accessible and operable via full keyboard tabbing sequences. Focus order follows logical reading and interaction flow. Focus indicators are visible and meet minimum contrast requirements.
Colour Contrast
✓ WCAG AAA TargetAll foreground text against background combinations are engineered to achieve a minimum 7:1 contrast ratio (WCAG Level AAA). Interactive elements use clearly distinct active, hover, and focus states.
Semantic HTML Structure
✓ ImplementedPages use a clean, logical HTML5 semantic hierarchy: a single <h1> per page, proper heading levels, <nav>, <main>, <header>, <footer>, <article>, <section>, and <aside> landmarks. This ensures screen readers can navigate efficiently.
ARIA Labels & Roles
✓ ImplementedInteractive components carry explicit aria-label attributes, aria-pressed states for toggle buttons, aria-live regions for dynamic content updates, and role attributes where native semantics are insufficient. Email list items announce sender and subject to assistive technologies.
No Motion Barrier
✓ ImplementedAnimations (pulse indicators, loading spinners) are purely decorative and do not convey functional information. State changes are always communicated via text or ARIA, never by animation alone.
Monospace Typography
✓ ImplementedJetBrains Mono is used throughout for its exceptional letter-spacing, digit alignment, and legibility at all sizes. Font is self-hosted via next/font to eliminate external network dependencies.
3. Known Limitations
HTML Email Rendering: Emails with HTML content are displayed inside a sandboxed <iframe> element. The accessibility of the email content itself (heading structure, contrast, alt text) is determined by the email sender, not by NOTSPAM.uk. We are unable to control or remediate accessibility issues within third-party email content.
Minimum Viewport: The application is designed for landscape desktop viewports at a minimum width of 1280px. The layout has not been optimised for mobile or narrow viewports. This is a deliberate product constraint, not an oversight.
4. Testing Approach
We test accessibility using a combination of automated tooling (axe-core) and manual testing with keyboard-only navigation. We periodically test with NVDA (Windows) and VoiceOver (macOS) screen readers to validate ARIA implementation.
5. Feedback & Contact
If you experience any accessibility barrier while using NOTSPAM.uk, please contact us at hello@itsmyapp.co.uk. We aim to respond to all accessibility feedback within 5 working days and to resolve confirmed barriers within 30 calendar days.
