Accessibility Statement
*Last Updated: May 17, 2025*
At MARSECC Maritime Advanced Reconnaissance Security Company, a disabled veteran-run organization based in Washington, D.C., we are committed to ensuring that our website, [insert website URL, e.g., www.marsecc.com], is accessible to all individuals, including those with disabilities. We strive to provide an inclusive online experience that allows visitors with disabilities to browse our site with the same level of ease and enjoyment as other visitors, in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and other applicable local and federal regulations.
#### What is Web Accessibility?
Web accessibility refers to the practice of designing and maintaining websites so that people with disabilities can perceive, navigate, and interact with content effectively. An accessible website enables users to access information using assistive technologies, such as screen readers, keyboard navigation, and other adaptive tools, ensuring equal access for individuals with visual, auditory, motor, or cognitive impairments.
#### Our Commitment to Accessibility
We have adapted our website in accordance with the *Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA*, the standard referenced by the U.S. Department of Justice for ADA compliance and widely recognized as the benchmark for web accessibility. Our efforts to make the site accessible include, but are not limited to, the following:
• *Use of Wix Accessibility Wizard*: We have utilized Wix’s Accessibility Wizard to identify and address potential accessibility issues on our site.
• *Language Settings*: The site’s language is clearly defined to ensure compatibility with screen readers and other assistive technologies.
• *Clear Heading Structures*: All site pages feature logical heading structures to facilitate navigation for screen reader users.
• *Alternative Text for Images*: Descriptive alt text has been added to images to convey their content and purpose to users who rely on screen readers.
• *Color Contrast*: We have implemented sufficient color contrast ratios between text and backgrounds to enhance readability for users with low vision or color blindness.
• *Reduced Motion*: Motion on the site has been minimized to prevent discomfort or seizures for users with photosensitivity or vestibular disorders.
• *Accessible Media*: All video and audio files on the site include captions, transcripts, or audio descriptions to ensure accessibility for users with hearing or visual impairments.
• *Keyboard Navigation*: The site supports full keyboard functionality, allowing users with motor impairments to navigate without a mouse, with smart focus rings and visual indicators to guide them.
These features leverage Wix’s built-in accessibility tools, such as automatic Document Object Model (DOM) ordering, ARIA attributes, and keyboard semantics, to enhance the user experience for individuals using assistive technologies.[](https://www.wix.com/accessibility)[](https://www.wix.com/blog/make-your-wix-website-accessible)

While we strive for full compliance with WCAG 2.1 Level AA, we acknowledge that accessibility is an ongoing process, particularly with third-party content, and we are committed to addressing any limitations promptly.[](https://www.audioeye.com/wix/)
