Accessibility statement
FluTrack is built to be usable by everyone, including people who rely on assistive technology. This page states our conformance target, what we have done, the known limitations, and how to tell us when something gets in your way.
Our target
FluTrack aims to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA. Accessibility is treated as a build requirement, not an afterthought: it is checked as the site is developed and again before changes ship.
What we do
- Semantic HTML with a logical heading structure, landmarks, and a skip-to-content link on every page.
- Full keyboard operability — the state map is a set of ordinary links, and menus, accordions and forms all work without a mouse, with visible focus styles.
- Colour is never the only signal: the threat level is always accompanied by a word and a label, and text meets AA contrast in both the light and dark themes.
- Motion respects your
prefers-reduced-motionsetting — animations are removed when you ask your system to reduce motion. - The interface is responsive and works at high zoom and on small screens.
- Data figures use tabular numerals and are described in text, not conveyed by shape or colour alone.
Known limitations
The U.S. map is presented as a tile grid rather than a geographic outline; it is a deliberate simplification for clarity, and every state is also reachable through the plain state directory and the dropdown selector. If any data visualization is ever unclear with a screen reader, the same information is available as text on the relevant state page. We are continually working to find and fix gaps.
