Accessibility Statement

Aperim Pty Ltd (ABN 46150699737; ACN 150699737) is incorporated in New South Wales, Australia and operates the aicial brand. In this statement, “aicial” refers to that brand; “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Aperim Pty Ltd; and “you” refers to a visitor to our website.

This statement covers the aicial website. It will extend to our planned self-serve software service once that service becomes available, and we will update this statement to reflect it at that time.

We design and build aicial to be usable by as many people as possible, including people who navigate by keyboard rather than a mouse, people who use a screen reader or other assistive technology, and people who are sensitive to motion or need stronger contrast. This is a standing commitment, not a one-off project. We treat accessibility as part of the ordinary craft of building the website, alongside performance and security, rather than as a feature added at the end.

This reflects our own view of what a well-built product looks like. A tool that a customer’s team cannot navigate has failed at its job, however well it performs on any other measure.

Our internal design standard is the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA. We use it as the target for new and existing interfaces across the website.

We have not commissioned a formal WCAG conformance audit, and we do not claim certified conformance. WCAG 2.2 Level AA is a design and engineering target that we work toward on an ongoing basis, and our progress against it will vary across different parts of the website at any given time.

Practices we currently apply across the aicial website include:

• semantic HTML structure, so headings, landmarks and interactive elements are exposed correctly to assistive technology;
• a skip-to-content link at the start of every page, so keyboard and screen-reader users can bypass repeated navigation;
• keyboard navigation support, so interactive elements are built to be reachable and operated without a mouse;
• visible focus states on interactive elements, so a keyboard user can see where focus currently is;
• light and dark color themes maintained for contrast; and
• a reduced-motion mode: where your system requests reduced motion, our animated background effect renders as a static frame instead of continuing to animate.

We continue to extend these practices as we build new parts of the website.

Some content is outside our direct control. Content embedded from a third party may not fully conform to our accessibility standard, because it is built and maintained outside aicial. A newly shipped feature may also temporarily fall short of our standard before we identify and address a gap.

We work to address accessibility issues as we identify them, whether found through our own testing or through feedback from you.

Send accessibility feedback, including a barrier you have encountered on our website, to accessibility@aicial.com. Where practical, include the page or feature involved, what you were trying to do, and the browser or assistive technology you were using, so we can reproduce and address the issue.

We aim to acknowledge feedback promptly and to address a genuine accessibility barrier within a reasonable time, prioritized by its impact on you.
