Our Commitment
We want this site to work for everyone — whether you’re browsing with a mouse, a keyboard, a screen reader, voice control, or assistive tech we haven’t heard of yet. Accessibility isn’t a one-time pass; it’s ongoing engineering work.
If something on the site blocks you from completing what you came here to do, we want to know. Reach us using any of the methods in section 06.
Standards & Targets
Mr. Exotixx targets conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA. We test against those guidelines and incorporate fixes as we ship.
We also follow ADA, California Unruh Civil Rights Act, and CCPA-aligned practices for users with disabilities.
What We Built In
- Semantic HTML. Headings, landmarks (
<nav>,<main>,<footer>), and lists are used purposefully so screen readers can navigate by structure. - Keyboard navigation. Every interactive element — links, buttons, form fields, the dispensary locator filters, gallery filters — is reachable and operable with the keyboard alone. Focus indicators are visible.
- Descriptive alt text. Every meaningful image carries an
altattribute that describes what it shows; decorative images are marked aria-hidden so they don’t add noise. - Forms with labels. Inputs have visible or screen-reader-only labels and predictable focus order. Email, contact, and submission forms announce errors when present.
- Color & contrast. The dark palette is engineered with text / background pairs that meet AA contrast for body copy. Where critical information is conveyed by color, we also provide a label, icon, or pattern.
- Reduced motion. The site respects
prefers-reduced-motion. Marquees and scanner-line effects are disabled when that setting is on. - Responsive layout. The site reflows down to small screens without horizontal scrolling and supports zoom up to 200% without loss of content.
Known Limitations
We’re honest about what isn’t there yet:
- The dispensary locator map is a stylized illustration, not an interactive map. All listings are also presented as a fully accessible card list — every partner on the map appears in the list with full address, hours, and phone.
- The gallery filter chips currently anchor to the grid; live filtering by category is on the roadmap.
- Some campaign photography is mood-led and may convey intent through aesthetic rather than detail. Captions describe the subject when relevant.
Third-Party Tools
Parts of the experience are provided by third parties — checkout (Shopify), payment processing, analytics, and email subscriptions. Their accessibility is governed by their own conformance levels. We choose vendors that publish accessibility statements and we review the integration points we control.
If you encounter an accessibility issue inside a third-party flow (for example, Shopify checkout), let us know and we’ll either fix what we can or escalate to the vendor.
Report a Barrier
Found something that doesn’t work for you? We want concrete details so we can actually fix it. When you reach out, please include:
- The page URL where the issue happened
- What you were trying to do
- The assistive tech, browser, and OS you were using
- What blocked you (a description, screenshot, or recording)
Reach us via the contact form. We aim to acknowledge accessibility reports within two business days.
Ongoing Work
Accessibility is a moving target. Each new feature gets a manual review against WCAG 2.1 AA before it ships, and we audit existing flows when patterns or technologies change. This statement gets updated as the site evolves.
