Section One
Our Commitment to Accessibility
Every piece of jewelry tells a story, and we believe everyone deserves to be part of that story. Mainstreet Jewelers of Parker is dedicated to ensuring that our website and our showroom are welcoming, usable, and enjoyable for people of all abilities.
Accessibility is not a checkbox for us; it is an extension of the warm, pressure-free hospitality we offer every neighbor who walks through our doors. We continually work to remove barriers so that customers with disabilities can browse, learn, shop, and celebrate life's cherished milestones alongside everyone else.
Section Two
Standards & Conformance
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA, the internationally recognized standard for digital accessibility. These guidelines help make web content more perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust for a wide range of people.
- WCAG 2.1 Level AA — our primary conformance target for all website content.
- ADA Title III — we honor our responsibilities as a place of public accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
- Section 508 — where applicable, we align with these federal accessibility standards.
Accessibility is an ongoing journey rather than a one-time destination, and we measure our progress against these standards on a regular basis.
Section Three
Accessibility Features of Our Website
We have built and continue to refine our website with a range of features designed to support diverse browsing needs:
- Keyboard navigation — all interactive elements can be reached and operated using the Tab key and standard keyboard controls, without requiring a mouse.
- Screen reader compatibility — we use semantic HTML, descriptive ARIA labels, and landmark regions so assistive software can interpret our content accurately.
- Visible focus indicators — a clear outline appears on every focusable element as you navigate, so you always know where you are.
- Descriptive alt text — meaningful images include text alternatives that describe the content and purpose of each image.
- Sufficient color contrast — text and interface elements are designed to meet WCAG AA contrast ratios for comfortable reading.
- Resizable text — content remains readable and functional when text is enlarged up to 200 percent.
- Captions and transcripts — video and audio content is accompanied by captions or transcripts where available.
- Reduced motion support — we honor the system-level "reduce motion" preference to minimize animation for those who need it.
Section Four
Accessibility in Our Physical Stores
Our commitment to inclusion continues the moment you arrive on Main Street. We want every visit to feel effortless and welcoming.
- Wheelchair accessibility — our entrance and showroom are designed to accommodate wheelchairs and mobility devices, with accessible pathways throughout.
- Accessible restrooms — available on-site where facilities permit.
- Service animals — trained service animals are always welcome in our store.
- Accessible parking — designated accessible parking spaces are located near the entrance.
- Assistance on request — our friendly staff is happy to provide personal assistance, from retrieving pieces from the case to guiding you through a purchase at your own pace.
Section Five
Assistive Technologies We Support
Our website is designed to work with common assistive technologies, including:
- Screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack.
- Voice recognition software for hands-free navigation and input.
- Keyboard-only navigation for those who do not use a pointing device.
- Browser zoom and magnification tools for enlarging on-screen content.
Section Six
Ongoing Efforts & Continuous Improvement
Accessibility is woven into how we work, not treated as an afterthought. To keep improving, we:
- Conduct regular accessibility audits of our website and digital tools.
- Invite feedback and user testing from people with disabilities.
- Provide ongoing accessibility training for our staff, both online and in-store.
- Review new features and content for accessibility before they are published.
Section Seven
Known Limitations & Areas Under Improvement
We believe in being honest about where we are on our accessibility journey. Despite our best efforts, some content may not yet fully meet our standards. We are actively working to improve the following areas:
- Certain older product images may have limited or incomplete alternative text, which we are updating.
- A small number of downloadable documents (such as archived certificates) may not yet be fully accessible.
- Some embedded third-party features may present accessibility challenges outside our direct control.
If you encounter any barrier not listed here, we genuinely want to know. Please reach out using the contact details below.
Section Eight
Third-Party Content
Our website may include content and tools provided by third parties, such as embedded widgets, payment processors, shipping calculators, and mapping services. While we choose our partners with care, these third-party features may have their own accessibility profiles that we do not fully control.
We continually encourage our partners to meet recognized accessibility standards. If a third-party tool prevents you from completing a task, please contact us and we will be glad to assist you directly.
Section Nine
Alternative Formats & Assistance Requests
We are happy to provide product information, receipts, care instructions, appraisals, and other documentation in alternative formats upon request. This may include large print, plain-text email, or a personal walk-through by phone or in person.
To request an alternative format, or if you would like help browsing our collections, placing an order, or scheduling a service, simply contact our team using any of the details in the Feedback & Contact section below. We are always glad to help.
Section Eleven
Compatibility Statement
Our website is designed to be compatible with recent versions of the following browsers and assistive technologies:
- Browsers — the two most recent versions of Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, and Microsoft Edge.
- Screen readers — current versions of JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver (macOS and iOS), and TalkBack (Android).
