Accessibility on Leacountyinn.com

Leacountyinn.com is committed to making the website accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. Our goal is to provide an accessible website that conforms to Section 508 Guidelines and the World Wide Web Consortium’s Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. While some existing content may not yet fully comply and some may meet only the minimum required compliance standards, we are continually working to monitor and maintain acceptable compliance levels.

We adhere to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) and have implemented measures to enhance accessibility throughout our website. We continue to make every effort to test the website and remove barriers that prevent persons with disabilities from interacting with or accessing information available on our website. If we become aware of content that does not conform to the WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards, we will make every reasonable good faith effort to make the content conform to the standards.

While we strive to adhere to the accepted guidelines and standards for accessibility and usability, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website, particularly as it relates to third-party content. Lea County Inn is not responsible for ensuring that third-party content, software/tools, widgets, add-ins, APIs, etc., which are not owned by Lea County Inn but are otherwise located on or linked to the Lea County Inn website, conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA, and shall not be liable if they are inaccessible to individuals with disabilities.

This policy sets the standard for individuals with disabilities to access web-based information, but it cannot anticipate every accessibility need due to known limitations of existing technology. There may be other circumstances, independent of technology, that may limit the accessibility of the Lea County Inn.

Ongoing Efforts to Ensure Accessible Content

Lea County Inn uses the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1 as its guiding principle. As we develop new pages and functionality, the principles of accessible design and development are integral to their conception and realization. We continually test content and features for WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance and remediate any issues to ensure we meet or exceed the standards. Testing of our digital content is performed by our accessibility experts using automated testing, screen readers, a color contrast analyzer, keyboard-only navigation techniques, and a variety of bookmarklets.
