Accessibility Policy

Accessibility is important to Hagalaz Publishing. We make intentional book format and design choices to aim for accessibility to all our readers. That said, we always appreciate feedback on how we can do better. We won't always be perfect but we will always strive to improve.

----

In line with Ontario’s accessibility laws and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), these pages have been constructed to transform gracefully for people of all abilities. These pages: 1) separate structure from presentation. They use Cascading Style Sheets to control much of the presentation. 2) all content is provided as text; when images, audio or video files are used, they are given equivalent alternatives. 3) documents do not rely on one type of hardware. Users can access the site with a variety of browser technologies, mobile devices, screen resolutions and settings, with or without mice, etc. 4) all attempts have been made to ensure that the content is understandable and navigable. There is a standardized site menu that indicates where you are within the site structure. Our store is currently hosted with Shopify, Inc using an underlying template created by them. They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you.
