This is general background, not legal advice. For how any law applies to your business, consult a qualified lawyer in your jurisdiction.
The standards
WCAG (the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) is the widely referenced technical standard for digital accessibility. Axeible tests against WCAG 2.2 at levels A and AA — the levels most commonly cited.
The laws that reference them
Various laws around the world address digital accessibility — in the United States the ADA is frequently applied to websites, and in the European Union the European Accessibility Act (EAA) introduces requirements for many online services. These laws, and how courts and regulators apply them, vary by region and change over time.
Why we never promise compliance
Compliance is a legal determination about your entire site and situation — not something a scanner can grant. Any product claiming to make you "compliant", "certified", or "lawsuit-proof" is overstating what software can do, and that kind of claim has itself drawn regulatory action. Axeible instead helps you find issues, fix them, and keep an honest, dated record of the effort.
What good faith looks like
Demonstrating a genuine, ongoing remediation effort — real fixes, documented decisions, and a clear account of what still needs work — is something you can do. That's what Axeible is built to support.
