ACCESSIBILITY

1812 is committed to a website that can be accessed and used by everyone.

We work to ensure www.1812england.com meets accessibility standards and is usable across devices, browsers, and assistive technologies. If you encounter a barrier, we want to know. 1812 and 1812 England are trading names of DISHONOR Ltd, a private limited company registered in England and Wales.

01

Our Commitment

1812 believes that access to our website, products and services should not be limited by disability, device, browser, or technology. We are committed to making www.1812england.com as inclusive and usable as possible.

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. These internationally recognised guidelines set out how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities, including those who use assistive technologies such as screen readers, voice recognition software, or alternative input devices.

02

What We Are Doing

Accessibility is an ongoing commitment. Steps 1812 takes to improve and maintain accessibility include:

Designing and building pages with clear visual hierarchy and consistent navigation

Using semantic HTML to support screen readers and assistive technologies

Providing descriptive alternative text for images

Ensuring adequate colour contrast across all pages

Supporting keyboard navigation throughout the site

Ensuring forms, checkout, and account features are accessible

Testing across a range of devices, screen sizes, and browsers

Reviewing and addressing accessibility issues as they are identified

03

Known Limitations

While 1812 works to maintain high accessibility standards across the website, some areas may not yet fully meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA. This may be due to third party platform constraints, legacy content, or the visual and interactive nature of certain features.

Our website is built on Shopify. Some elements of the site, including checkout, account management, and payment processing, are controlled by Shopify's platform infrastructure. Shopify publishes its own accessibility information and works continuously to improve platform level accessibility.

We are committed to identifying and addressing limitations as our website evolves. If you experience a specific barrier, please tell us and we will prioritise a resolution.

04

Assistive Technology

1812 aims to support a broad range of assistive technologies, including:

Screen readers (including NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, and TalkBack)

Voice recognition software

Keyboard only navigation

Browser zoom and text resizing

High contrast and dark mode display settings
