Accessibility Statement
Last updated: March 2026
Karen Curtis is committed to ensuring that KarenCurtis.com is accessible to everyone, including people with visual, hearing, motor, and cognitive disabilities. We believe that beautiful, handcrafted jewelry should be available and enjoyable for all.
Our Commitment
We are actively working to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA — the internationally recognized standard for web accessibility. Our current accessibility score is 8.5 out of 10, and we continue to improve.
What We Have Done
We have taken the following steps to make KarenCurtis.com more accessible:
- Installed an accessibility widget (the small icon in the bottom-left corner of every page) that allows visitors to adjust text size, color contrast, enable a dyslexia-friendly font, and highlight links
- Added a "Skip to main content" link for keyboard and screen reader users
- Ensured all navigation elements have descriptive labels for screen readers
- Maintained strong color contrast throughout the site
- Added alternative text descriptions to images across the site, with more being added regularly
- Ensured all page elements are properly labeled for assistive technologies
Accessibility Widget
Look for the accessibility icon in the bottom-left corner of every page. Click it to open a panel where you can:
- Increase or decrease text size
- Switch to high contrast or inverted color mode
- Enable a dyslexia-friendly font
- Highlight all links on the page
Known Limitations
While we strive for full accessibility, some areas are still being improved:
- Some older product images may not yet have full alternative text descriptions — we are adding these as we update our catalog
- Some third-party features (such as reviews and rewards plugins) are provided by external vendors and may have their own accessibility limitations
We are committed to addressing these limitations as quickly as possible.
