Accessibility Statement
1. Our Commitment to Accessibility
Ravello Escrow, Inc. is committed to ensuring that our website and digital services are accessible to all people, including individuals with disabilities. We believe that every person deserves equal and full access to information about our escrow services, regardless of ability, disability status, age, or the assistive technology they use.
We are actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of our website, www.ravelloescrow.com, and to ensure that it conforms to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA, as published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological disabilities.
2. Applicable Standards
2.1 WCAG 2.1 Level AA
Our website strives to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. WCAG 2.1 is organized around four core principles, often referred to as “POUR”:
- Perceivable: Information and user interface components must be presentable to users in ways they can perceive. This means users must be able to perceive all information being presented — it cannot be invisible to all of their senses.
- Operable: User interface components and navigation must be operable. This means users must be able to operate the interface — the interface cannot require interaction that a user cannot perform.
- Understandable: Information and the operation of the user interface must be understandable. This means users must be able to understand the information as well as the operation of the user interface.
- Robust: Content must be robust enough that it can be interpreted reliably by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies.
2.2 Applicable Law
We are committed to complying with applicable accessibility laws and regulations, including:
- The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), as amended by the ADA Amendments Act of 2008
- Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973
- Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (as applicable)
- California Unruh Civil Rights Act (California Civil Code §§ 51 et seq.)
- California Government Code § 11135
- Any other applicable federal, state, or local accessibility laws and regulations
