1. Our Commitment
ASSURNA, Inc. (“ASSURNA,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to ensuring that our website and digital platform are accessible to all individuals, including those with disabilities. We recognize our responsibility under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, and applicable state and local accessibility laws to provide equal access to our services, information, and functionality.
We believe that every individual — regardless of ability — deserves full and equal access to the health intelligence tools and information we provide. Accessibility is not an afterthought; it is an integral part of how we design, develop, and maintain our digital presence.
2. Accessibility Standards
ASSURNA strives to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, as published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI). These guidelines define 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.
Where technically feasible and appropriate, we also reference WCAG 2.2 guidance to incorporate the most current accessibility best practices.
3. Measures We Take
ASSURNA takes the following measures to ensure the accessibility of our website and platform:
- Incorporate accessibility considerations into our design and development processes from the earliest stages.
- Use semantic HTML, ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) landmarks, and roles to support assistive technology navigation.
- Provide text alternatives for non-text content, including images, icons, and media.
- Ensure sufficient color contrast ratios for text and interactive elements in compliance with WCAG 2.1 AA thresholds.
- Support full keyboard navigation and operability across all interactive components.
- Design responsive layouts that function across screen sizes, devices, and zoom levels up to 200%.
- Conduct periodic accessibility reviews, including manual testing and automated scanning.
- Train our team members on accessibility principles, standards, and best practices.
- Engage third-party accessibility evaluation when appropriate.
4. Conformance Status
We are continually working to improve the accessibility of our digital platform. While we strive for WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance across all pages and features, we acknowledge that some content or functionality may not yet fully meet every guideline. We are actively identifying, prioritizing, and remediating any accessibility gaps.
Our conformance efforts are ongoing, and we regularly update our platform as accessibility standards evolve and as we identify areas for improvement.
5. Compatibility
ASSURNA's website and platform are designed to be compatible with the following assistive technologies and environments:
- Screen readers, including JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver (macOS/iOS), and TalkBack (Android).
- Screen magnification software.

- Operating system accessibility features, including high contrast modes and text resizing.

6. Known Limitations
Despite our best efforts, some areas of our platform may present accessibility challenges. Known limitations include:
- Third-party integrations: Certain third-party integrations, widgets, or embedded content (such as data visualizations from external providers) may not fully conform to WCAG 2.1 AA standards. We work with our partners and vendors to advocate for accessibility improvements to their products.
- PDF documents: Some PDF documents or downloadable content may not be fully accessible. We are working to remediate existing documents and ensure new documents meet accessibility requirements.
