Accessibility Statement

Last updated: October 19, 2026

We want disaster information to be usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. This site targets WCAG 2.2 Level AA.

What we provide

Full keyboard navigation with visible focus indicators and a skip-to-content link.
Severity communicated by text labels and icon counts — never by colour alone.
A text-based live alerts list equivalent to the interactive map.
Reduced-motion support: all animations, pulsing markers and particles are disabled when your system requests reduced motion.
Semantic headings, landmarks, form labels and ARIA where needed.
Sufficient colour contrast on the dark theme.
Responsive layout usable at 400% zoom and on small screens.

The interactive map itself has limited screen-reader support (a Leaflet constraint) — the alerts list carries the same data.
Some third-party source pages we link to may not meet the same standards.

If you encounter an accessibility barrier, please tell us via the contact form — accessibility reports are treated as priority issues.
