Accessibility

Xalterra™, a trading name of SINCE TECH LTD, is committed to making this website accessible for the widest audience, regardless of technology or ability. All reasonable adjustments are being made to ensure this website is as accessible as possible. We have built the site with the following in mind:

  • Web pages are designed to be viewed on a wide range of screen resolutions;
  • You can adjust the text size through your browser's text resizing options (usually View > Text Size);
  • All images have descriptive alternative text tags;
  • We have used text and background color combinations with sufficient contrast;
  • The page structure is easy to navigate with a clear and user-friendly menu visible on each page, using HTML headings;
  • Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) control the presentation of pages and are properly structured so that content is accessible even if stylesheets are turned off;
  • The use of JavaScript has been kept to a minimum. If JavaScript is turned off, pages remain accessible;
  • All forms and fields follow a logical tab sequence to ensure easy navigation;
  • A sitemap is available to help you navigate the website.

We believe this website meets the criteria for level 1 and 2 of the World Wide Web Consortium Web Accessibility Initiative (WCAG 2.0) guidelines and we continue to strive to meet level 3 where possible. While we adhere to the accepted standards for accessibility, it is not always possible to meet these standards in all areas of the website due to evolving guidelines. We continue to review and update our solutions based on new accessibility guidelines and standards.
