Accessibility Statement

This accessibility statement applies to Edgefolio UK Limited.

At Edgefolio UK Limited, making our website accessible to everyone is a core commitment. We are dedicated to achieving Level AA compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Version 2.2, which supports the standards set by the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.

Our goals for accessibility include:

  • Enabling navigation of most of the website using keyboard commands or speech recognition software.
  • Ensuring compatibility with screen readers, including the latest versions of JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver.

Although we have made substantial progress, especially with our desktop version, the mobile version of our website continues to be a focus of improvement efforts. It does not yet fully meet all Level AA WCAG 2.2 standards. We are committed to ongoing enhancements to providing a consistent and user-friendly experience across all platforms. Our dedication to mobile optimisation and accessibility is unwavering, and we strive to address these issues as part of our commitment to digital inclusivity for all users.

Compliance status

Our website achieves partial compliance with the Level AA standards as outlined in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Version 2.2. While we have made significant strides in ensuring accessibility, we acknowledge that our website currently achieves partial compliance with WCAG 2.2 Level AA standards. We are actively working to address areas that fall short.

Non-accessible content

The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons:

Landing Page:

  • Re-arranging funds on the landing page is not accessible with keyboard navigation. This fails WCAG 2.2 success criterion 2.1.1 (Keyboard).

Kanban Board Page:

  • Moving 'cards' between columns is not accessible with keyboard navigation. This fails WCAG 2.2 success criterion 2.1.1 (Keyboard). However, 'cards' can be moved using the 'modal' option by changing the 'Status' of the 'card'.

Fund Landing Page (Overview, Analysis, Peer Analysis, Data Room):

  • Currently, the charts on these pages do not support keyboard interactivity, including the inability to activate hover states via keyboard. This issue fails WCAG 2.2 under the success criteria 2.1.1 Keyboard and 2.1.4 Character Key Shortcuts.
  • The hamburger menu on the charts, implemented through a third-party component called HighCharts, is not accessible via keyboard navigation. This fails WCAG 2.2 success criterion 2.1.1 (Keyboard).
  • A component on our Data Room page, which uses the third-party component Webix, is not fully accessible via keyboard navigation. This fails WCAG 2.2 success criterion 2.1.1 (Keyboard).

PDFs and non-HTML documents

Several of our PDFs and other non-HTML documents are currently not fully accessible. Some may not include text alternatives for images or may lack the necessary document structure for effective screen reader compatibility and straightforward navigation.

How we tested this website

Our approach to ensuring Edgefolio UK Limited's website meets the highest standards of accessibility is grounded in adherence to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Version 2.2, covering both Level A and Level AA criteria.

Furthermore, our evaluation and conformance strategies are enhanced by the integration of aXe DevTools. This tool plays a pivotal role in our ongoing efforts to ensure our website's accessibility standards are not only met but exceeded. Our commitment to accessibility is ongoing. We regularly run the aXe DevTool to catch and rectify any new issues as our website evolves, ensuring our accessibility standards are maintained and enhanced over time.

What we’re doing to improve accessibility

To continuously enhance the accessibility of our website, we are committed to an ongoing process of evaluation and improvement. Leveraging the capabilities of aXe DevTools, we systematically review pages and components to identify and rectify accessibility barriers. Our focus is on promptly addressing issues categorised as critical or serious, ensuring that these fixes take precedence to significantly improve user accessibility. This rigorous, ongoing review process enables us to make incremental improvements, thereby ensuring that our website remains as accessible as possible to all users, including those with disabilities. By prioritising these critical and serious issues, we aim to ensure our digital offerings are not only compliant with current accessibility standards but are also aligned with our goal of providing an inclusive user experience for everyone.
