Empire Legacy Framework is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all users, including individuals with disabilities. We actively work to improve the usability and accessibility of our website in accordance with recognized accessibility standards and evolving regulatory guidance.
Our goal is to provide an inclusive digital experience that supports equal access, usability, and compliance across devices, platforms, and assistive technologies.
Accessibility Standards & Conformance
Empire Legacy Framework strives to align its digital content and functionality with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, as published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines are widely recognized as the benchmark for digital accessibility and are referenced by regulatory bodies, courts, and enterprise governance frameworks.
Accessibility is an ongoing process. We regularly review our website and digital assets to identify opportunities for improvement and to address accessibility considerations as technologies, standards, and business requirements evolve.
Assistive Technology & Browser Features
Users may benefit from built-in accessibility tools available through their operating systems and web browsers, including:
Screen readers and text-to-speech functionality
Keyboard-only navigation
Adjustable text sizing and zoom levels
Screen magnification tools
Customizable color contrast and display settings
Enhanced pointer visibility options (device-dependent)
The U.S. Social Security Administration provides additional guidance on configuring accessibility features within operating systems and browsers.
Alternative Navigation & Input Methods
For users who prefer alternatives to traditional mouse and keyboard navigation, speech-recognition software (such as Dragon Naturally Speaking) may allow voice-based navigation and interaction with web content.
Multimedia Accessibility
Empire Legacy Framework aims to make multimedia content accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing.
Closed Captioning
Closed captions provide synchronized text for audio content within videos, supporting users who are deaf or hard of hearing as well as those accessing content in sound-limited environments. When available, captions may be enabled or disabled through the video platform hosting the content (for example, YouTube).
Audio & Volume Controls
Most devices and media players include built-in audio controls and accessibility settings. Users are encouraged to adjust both device-level and media-player-level settings to optimize their experience.
Ongoing Commitment
Accessibility is integrated into our broader governance, risk, and digital oversight practices. We view accessibility not as a one-time implementation, but as part of responsible digital stewardship, risk mitigation, and long-term operational integrity.
