Effective Date: May 5, 2025


Last Updated: June 30, 2025


Entity: Know Your Developer, LLC ("KYD", "we", "our", or "us")


1. Statement of Commitment

Know Your Developer, LLC is committed to making our website and services accessible to individuals of all abilities. We believe that digital inclusion is fundamental to innovation, and we aim to ensure that all users—including individuals with disabilities—can access, understand, and interact with our content and tools. This commitment reflects both our organizational values and our obligations under applicable laws.


We design our website and platform with accessibility in mind, guided by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, as published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), and relevant legal frameworks including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, and international regulations where applicable. 

2. Scope of Accessibility​

This Accessibility Statement applies to:

  • www.knowyourdeveloper.ai

  • Any web-based services, tools, APIs, or dashboards operated by Know Your Developer, LLC

  • Public and private user experiences across desktop and mobile browsers

  • PDF downloads, digital reports, and other digital communications produced by KYD

Please note that while KYD may link to or embed third-party services or content, we cannot guarantee the accessibility of third-party platforms or applications not directly managed by us.

3. Standards and Technical Approach

We aim to conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA, which includes—but is not limited to—the following principles:

  • Perceivable – All users should be able to perceive content regardless of sensory ability. This includes proper use of alt text, captions for videos, and readable text layout.

  • Operable – All functionality should be available using a keyboard. We avoid interactions that require a mouse or gestures alone.

  • Understandable – Text is written clearly, navigation is consistent, and error messages are descriptive.

  • Robust – Our site is designed to work with current and future technologies, including screen readers, screen magnifiers, and voice recognition software.

  • Specific Accessibility Features

  • Semantic HTML5 structure with ARIA labels

  • Alt text for all meaningful images and icons

  • Text resize compatibility and responsive design

  • Sufficient color contrast ratios (minimum 4.5:1 for normal text)

  • Logical heading hierarchy and focus indicators

  • Avoidance of content that flashes or blinks rapidly

  • Avoidance of time-based content expiration unless extendable

  • Support for users navigating via keyboard only


4. Continuous Accessibility Improvement
We recognize that accessibility is a continuous journey. We actively perform:

  • Automated and manual audits on a quarterly basis

  • Ongoing testing using screen readers (e.g., NVDA, VoiceOver)

  • Development lifecycle integration of accessibility best practices

  • Employee training on inclusive design and compliance

  • User feedback loops from people with disabilities


We work to remediate any identified issues promptly and consider accessibility a non-negotiable part of feature development and UX testing.


5. Feedback and Accommodation Requests
If you encounter a barrier to access or would like to request an accommodation, we invite you to contact us. We will respond as soon as reasonably possible, and no later than two business days after receiving your request.

6. Legal Compliance
Know Your Developer, LLC voluntarily aligns with accessibility requirements under:

  • Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

  • Section 508 of the U.S. Rehabilitation Act of 1973

  • The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and similar state privacy laws that require accessibility for disclosures

  • International accessibility requirements including the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA)and EN 301 549 in the European Union, where applicable

  • While KYD is not a covered federal contractor, we model many of our internal practices on Section 508 standards to ensure accessibility across our offerings, particularly for government-adjacent use cases.


7. Third-Party Limitations
Our website may use third-party content, plug-ins, or integrations (e.g., analytics tools, embedded forms, or mapping services). While we encourage these vendors to adhere to WCAG and ADA requirements, KYD cannot control their accessibility practices and cannot guarantee full compliance for content outside our direct control.
If you experience an issue with a third-party feature, please notify us immediately so we can assess workarounds or escalate the concern with the provider.


8. Future Goals
We are currently working on additional accessibility features, including:

  • Enhanced support for dynamic content via ARIA live regions

  • Keyboard-accessible overlays for filtering and forms

  • Accessibility conformance reporting (VPAT)

  • Translation and localization support with accessibility in mind


We commit to publishing updates to this statement at least annually or as significant changes are made.
