We at The Giggly Gaiwan are working to make our site www.thegigglygaiwan.com accessible to people with disabilities.

What web accessibility is

An accessible site allows visitors with disabilities to browse the site with the same or a similar level of ease and enjoyment as other visitors. This can be achieved with the capabilities of the system on which the site is operating, and through assistive technologies.

Accessibility adjustments on this site

We have adapted this site in accordance with WCAG 2.1 guidelines and have made the site accessible to the level of AA. This site’s contents have been designed to support assistive technologies such as screen readers and keyboard navigation.

We have:

Used accessibility tools to identify and resolve potential issues
Set appropriate language settings
Organized content using clear heading structures
Added alt text to images
Selected color combinations that meet contrast requirements
Minimized the use of motion
Ensured videos and downloadable files are accessible

Declaration of partial compliance with the standard due to third-party content [only add if relevant]

Some content on our site relies on third-party services (e.g., embedded YouTube videos, external checkout systems) and may not fully meet accessibility standards. We declare partial compliance with WCAG 2.1 AA for these elements.

Accessibility arrangements in the organization [only add if relevant]

The Giggly Gaiwan is an online-only business and does not currently have a physical storefront. Accessibility efforts are focused on the website and digital content.
