Compliance Procedures
Meeting accessibility standards is an ongoing process and Hyland Hills will continue to work toward increasing the accessibility of our site.
​
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Hyland Hills is working towards full compliance with WCAG 2.1 level AA.
​
In addition to coding our website to WCAG standards, Hyland Hills regularly scans its website to ensure ongoing compliance and makes timely changes to any inaccessible items, if any are found.
​
Linked Documents and Third Party Sites
Throughout this website, we may make use of different third-party websites, which are not controlled by Hyland Hills. When you utilize a link from the Hyland Hills website that leads to a third-party website, Hyland Hills cannot guarantee that the third-party website will be in conformance with WCAG or comply with the accessibility requirements set forth by applicable law.
While we cannot control the accessibility of content provided by third parties, we are happy to assist any member of the public with reading and accessing content on our site.
