Accessibility

We want TDC to work for every parent.

Last updated: June 1, 2026 · Standard targeted: WCAG 2.1 Level AA.

Our commitment

The Digital Childhood is built to be usable by parents of any ability. We target Level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 across the entire app, the marketing site, and the legal pages.

What we do today

Color contrast meets or exceeds the 4.5:1 ratio for body text and 3:1 for large text.
Every interactive element is reachable by keyboard alone.
Every image used for meaning has alt text. Decorative images are marked as such.
Form fields have associated labels.
The app does not rely on color alone to convey information.
Touch targets meet the 44x44px minimum on mobile.
The audio Listen feature provides spoken-word playback of any article or script.
Font sizes scale with browser zoom up to 200%.

What we know we're still working on

Audited screen-reader pass through every screen with VoiceOver and NVDA, in progress.
Full keyboard navigation audit on the Family Pact and Friend Group Pact forms.
Reduced-motion support for animations.
Color-blind-safe palette pass on all colored eyebrows and progress meters.

This statement reflects our actual practice. It's not a marketing line. If anything here doesn't match your experience, we want to hear about it.
