vAssist (WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliant)

You want your website to be accessible to all - which includes individuals with various disabilities.

As a business owner, you're too busy running your online store to worry about compliance issues, especially any potential lawsuits. Individuals and organizations representing people with disabilities frequently file complaints against businesses (including small businesses) that fail to provide equal access to their websites.

ADA Title III website accessibility lawsuits filed in federal courts in 2021 jumped 14% over 2020. Between 2017 and 2021, well over 8,000 digital accessibility lawsuits were filed (American Bar). Don't let your business be part of that statistic.
