PCB Guide Support
Accessibility Statement
Our goal is to make PCB Guide useful, readable, mobile-friendly, and easier to access for as many people as possible.
Introduction
PCB Guide wants the website to be useful, readable, and accessible for as many people as possible, including visitors using assistive technologies, keyboard navigation, screen readers, mobile devices, magnification, captions, reduced-motion settings, or other accessibility tools.
This Accessibility Statement explains our accessibility goals, the work we are doing, known practical limits, and how to contact us if you find a barrier on PCB Guide.
We are a growing local website, and accessibility is an ongoing process. We may not get everything perfect right away, but we want to improve issues when we find them or when users tell us about them.
1. Our Accessibility Goal
PCB Guide aims to provide a website experience that is clear, mobile-friendly, keyboard-friendly, readable, and practical for users with different abilities, devices, and browsing needs.
Our accessibility goals include:
- Clear headings and page structure
- Readable text and strong color contrast where practical
- Keyboard-accessible links, buttons, filters, forms, and popups
- Visible focus states for keyboard users
- Useful labels, button text, and link text
- Responsive layouts for phones, tablets, and desktops
- Support for reduced-motion preferences when custom motion or scrolling behavior is used
- Helpful error, empty-state, and correction messages
2. Accessibility Standards and References
PCB Guide uses common web accessibility best practices and aims to follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines where practical for the site’s design, code, content, and forms.
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, commonly called WCAG, are widely used recommendations for making web content more accessible to people with disabilities.
PCB Guide does not claim perfect accessibility or formal certification. This statement is meant to describe our intent, current practices, and feedback process.
3. Accessibility Work Already Built Into PCB Guide
PCB Guide custom pages have been designed with accessibility in mind during development and review.
Examples of accessibility work may include:
- Semantic headings and organized page sections
- Accessible modal and popup behavior where custom popups are used
- Keyboard focus handling for buttons, filters, cards, links, and dialogs
- Visible focus styling
- Reduced-motion-aware scroll behavior
- Descriptive buttons and calls to action
- Readable card layouts and spacing
- Mobile-first responsive design
- Alt text or fallback handling for important images when available
- Non-technical empty states and error messages
4. Forms, Listings, and Corrections
PCB Guide uses forms and submission flows for contact requests, corrections, business listings, events, happy hours, live music, advertising inquiries, and related purposes.
We try to make forms clear and easy to understand. If you have trouble using a form, you can contact us directly at contact@pcbguide.com.
If a listing, event, happy hour, live music entry, guide, or business page creates an accessibility issue or contains inaccurate accessibility-related information, please let us know so we can review it.
5. Third-Party Tools and Content
PCB Guide may use third-party tools, links, embeds, payment processors, booking platforms, ticketing platforms, maps, social media platforms, analytics tools, forms, databases, or other services.
Some parts of the user experience may depend on third-party platforms or external websites that PCB Guide does not fully control.
We cannot guarantee the accessibility of third-party websites or services, but we want to know if a third-party element on PCB Guide creates a barrier so we can consider alternatives, adjustments, or clearer instructions where practical.
6. Public Listings and User-Submitted Materials
PCB Guide may display public business information, event flyers, logos, photos, menus, social media links, and other materials submitted by businesses, venues, event organizers, artists, users, or gathered from public sources.
User-submitted or publicly sourced media may not always meet ideal accessibility standards, especially if it contains text inside images, low-contrast graphics, missing image descriptions, or inaccessible external links.
When practical, PCB Guide may summarize important public information in text, correct inaccessible presentation issues, replace problematic media, or update content after receiving feedback.
7. Ongoing Improvements
Accessibility is part of PCB Guide’s ongoing website maintenance and launch QA process.
Future improvements may include:
- Additional manual accessibility checks
- More consistent alt text and image descriptions
- Better form labels and helper text where needed
- Improved keyboard testing across custom pages
- Additional screen-reader checks
- More accessible error messages and validation messages
- Cleaner mobile focus and navigation behavior
- Accessibility review when new features are added
8. How to Report an Accessibility Issue
If you experience an accessibility barrier on PCB Guide, please contact us at contact@pcbguide.com.
To help us review the issue, please include as much of the following as you can:
- The page URL or page name
- A description of the problem
- What you were trying to do
- The device and browser you were using
- Any assistive technology you were using, if you are comfortable sharing that information
- A screenshot, screen recording, or example if helpful
- Your preferred way for us to respond, if you want a reply
9. Response and Review Process
When we receive accessibility feedback, we may review the issue, ask follow-up questions, test the affected page, update content, adjust code, provide an alternative way to access the information, or prioritize the issue for a future update.
Some accessibility issues may be fixed quickly, while others may require platform changes, third-party support, design changes, data cleanup, or a larger development update.
We appreciate feedback that helps PCB Guide become easier to use for everyone.
