Accessibility Statement

Effective Date: June 18, 2026
 

CoverCollect.co is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone, optimizing our historical research databases, and applying the relevant modern accessibility standards.

​

1. Our Commitment

 

At CoverCollect.co, we believe that our digital archive, member features, and educational resources should be accessible and easy to use for everyone, regardless of ability or technology. We are dedicated to providing a high-quality, inclusive browsing experience for all of our visitors and researchers.

​

2. Measures to Support Accessibility

 

CoverCollect.co takes the following ongoing operational measures to ensure the comprehensive accessibility of our website platform:

​

  • We include digital accessibility as a core element of our platform's development mission statement.

  • We integrate strict accessibility design rules into our research repository and UI procurement practices.

  • We continuously monitor our website layout, search mechanisms, and database structures to identify and remediate layout or navigation issues.

  • We ensure our text descriptions, historical analysis breakdowns, and system guides are written in a clear, legible, and easy-to-understand manner.
     

3. Conformance Status

 

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) define specific requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA.

​

CoverCollect.co is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the specialized digital archive content or high-resolution historical media may not yet fully conform to the absolute baseline accessibility standard. We are actively and continuously working to bring all areas of our platform up to this high standard.

​

We welcome your direct feedback on the overall accessibility of CoverCollect. If you encounter any accessibility barriers while using our repository tools, or if you have any questions, require manual formatting assistance, or need accommodation support, please let us know immediately.

  • Response Time Target: We strive to review and respond to all accessibility feedback within 5 business days.
     

5. Technical Specifications

 

The accessibility of CoverCollect.co relies on the following digital web technologies to work effectively with the particular combination of web browsers, screen readers, and any specific assistive technologies or plugins installed on your computer:

​

  • HTML

  • WAI-ARIA

  • CSS

  • JavaScript
     

These core technologies are relied upon globally for conformance with the strict web accessibility standards used across our platform.

6. Limitations and Alternatives

 

Despite our best efforts to ensure complete accessibility across CoverCollect.co, certain limitations may exist due to the historical nature of the data. For example, some embedded historical media assets, legacy handwritten document scans, or third-party web tools may not be fully optimized for screen readers. We are constantly evaluating alternative layout solutions to bring all areas of the site to the same level of web accessibility.
