Accessibility Statement

Our Commitment to Accessibility

Poez is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We recognize that many individuals with chronic spinal conditions may also have additional accessibility needs, and we strive to continuously improve the user experience for everyone who visits our website.

​​

We endeavor to follow federal standards for technology accessibility for people with disabilities as our baseline for accessibility compliance.

What We've Done to Make Our Website Accessible

Our website has been designed with accessibility in mind. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. This means you should be able to:

• change colours, contrast levels and fonts using browser functionality

• zoom in up to 400 per cent without the text spilling off the screen

• navigate most of the website using just a keyboard

• navigate most of the website using speech recognition software

• interact with most of the website using a screen reader (including recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver)
