This statement applies to all sites operating under the WordPress-based Microsites service. Active sites are listed on the homepage.
Standards and compliance
Our baseline accessibility target is to meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards. The last accessibility evaluation for Microsites was in February 2024 and used a representative sample of pages across our six sites at the time.
The evaluation found 8 violations and 6 warnings. In December 2025, we retired two sites that accounted for the majority of these issues. Remediation plans are in progress for the remaining 2 violations and single warning.
The next scheduled accessibility evaluation for this product is in January 2026.
Feedback and support
We welcome your feedback and will do our best to resolve any issues promptly.
