Häufig gestellte Fragen
My organization received a demand letter that we need to address. What steps should we take?
In order to respond to a demand letter, you need to have a clear understanding of your current state of digital accessibility. Work with Deque to conduct an audit to identify any issues and receive expert guidance on remediation and next steps. For legal matters, always consult with a qualified attorney for advice specific to your situation.
A prospect requires our digital property to be accessible. What should we do?
Start by confirming your accessibility status with a Deque audit. Our experts can help you address issues, document compliance, and provide an ACR (based on a VPAT) to share with prospects.
How quickly can we start on remediation?
Once you’ve completed your audit with Deque, you’re ready to start remediation. If you elect to have Deque conduct remediation on your behalf, it can start as soon as you provide Deque with access to your environment and source code–Deque can integrate with your existing workflow and codebase. And if you can’t provide access, Deque also offers a rapid remediation solution that does not involve updating the source code directly.
Our organization wants to be more inclusive and show our commitment to accessibility. What can we do?
Start by auditing your digital content and improving usability for all users. Publish an accessibility statement and outline your progress to demonstrate commitment and transparency. Check out Deque’s Accessibility Statement as an example.
How often should an organization perform accessibility audits?
Conduct accessibility audits annually or after major updates. Regular audits ensure ongoing compliance, prevent regressions, and maintain accessible experiences for all users.
