Accessibility Statement

1. Our Accessibility Commitment

SoftlyStudios aims to provide a welcoming and usable website for all visitors, including people who use assistive technologies.

We recognize that accessibility requires ongoing testing, maintenance and improvement.

We welcome feedback that helps us identify and address barriers.

2. Accessibility Standards

We use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) as a reference when considering website accessibility improvements.

These guidelines address areas such as perceivable content, usable navigation, understandable interfaces and compatibility with assistive technology.

3. Design & Readability

As part of our design and development approach, we aim to consider:

• Readable text sizes and appropriate spacing.
• Clear headings and organized page content.
• Sufficient contrast between text and backgrounds.
• Understandable links, buttons and form labels.
• Layouts that adapt to different screen sizes.

These are design goals rather than a guarantee that every page currently meets every accessibility requirement.

4. Keyboard Navigation

We aim to support visitors who navigate using a keyboard rather than a mouse.

Important interactive elements should ideally be reachable and usable with standard keyboard controls.

If you encounter a menu, form, modal or other feature that cannot be accessed by keyboard, please report the issue.

5. Screen Readers & Assistive Technology

We aim to use meaningful page structure, headings, labels and alternative text where appropriate.

These practices can help assistive technologies interpret website content.

Compatibility may vary depending on the browser, operating system, assistive technology and specific website feature.

6. Mobile & Responsive Access

SoftlyStudios is designed to support browsing across different screen sizes.

We aim to maintain readable content and usable navigation on mobile devices, tablets and desktops.

If a layout becomes difficult to use at a particular screen size or zoom level, we welcome your feedback.

7. Interactive Skincare Tools

SoftlyStudios may provide interactive features such as the Product Analyzer, Routine Builder, Beauty Passport and product comparison tools.

Interactive features can present additional accessibility challenges. We aim to review and improve these experiences over time.

If a tool is difficult to operate using a keyboard or assistive technology, please contact us.

8. Potential Accessibility Limitations

Some parts of the website may not yet provide an optimal experience for every visitor.

Areas that may require further review include:

• Complex interactive components and forms.
• Dynamic product recommendations.
• Images and other visual content.
• Keyboard focus behavior.
• Compatibility with different assistive technologies.

This list describes areas for review and does not represent a completed technical accessibility audit.

9. Third-Party Websites & Content

SoftlyStudios may link to independent retailers, product pages and other external websites.

We do not control the accessibility of third-party websites or services.

Accessibility concerns relating to an external website may need to be addressed by its operator.

10. Reporting an Accessibility Issue

If you experience an accessibility barrier on SoftlyStudios, please let us know.

When possible, include:

• The page URL where the issue occurred.
• A brief description of the problem.
• Your browser and device.
• The assistive technology you were using, if relevant.

You do not need to disclose a disability or medical condition to report an issue.

We aim to review accessibility feedback and respond where possible.

11. Ongoing Improvements

Accessibility is an ongoing process.

As SoftlyStudios grows, we aim to consider accessibility when updating layouts, publishing content and developing new tools.

We may revise this statement as improvements are made or new limitations are identified.
