Limitations and Alternatives

Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility, there may still be some limitations. Below is a description of known issues and our efforts to address them. Please contact us if you notice an issue not listed here.

Known limitations:

• Images & videos: Uploaded media may lack text alternatives, as clients manage much of their content directly. We are actively exploring better solutions to support accessible media uploads.

• Sliders and carousels: These elements may not always be manually paused or controlled.

• Background videos: May not be controllable or pausable for all users.

• Keyboard navigation: In rare cases, certain elements may be difficult or impossible to access via keyboard navigation.

We are actively working to address these limitations as part of our ongoing accessibility improvement roadmap.
