Compliance coverage
Every finding in our reports is tagged with a WCAG 2.2 success criterion. Below is how that conformance evidence helps you satisfy specific accessibility laws — and where our help ends.
This Statement of Compliance describes how Flex Accesses LLC (the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”), registered under the laws of the Republic of Armenia and operating the website https://flexaccesses.com, addresses its obligations within the framework of standards applicable to the digital products and services we provide.
This Statement supplements, but does not replace, our Accessibility Statement, Terms of Service, Privacy Notice, Cookie Policy and Data Processing Agreement (DPA), each of which is incorporated into this document by reference.
This Statement is provided for informational purposes only. It does not constitute a legal opinion, certification or warranty that any particular product, service or website fully satisfies the requirements of any specific law in any particular jurisdiction. Customers should independently assess, together with qualified legal counsel of their choice, whether FlexAccesses products and services meet the requirements applicable to their particular use case.
1. Standards and Laws We Address
Our products and services, including the FlexAccesses widget, accessibility audits, VPAT documentation, monitoring and remediation services, are designed and operated with reference to the following internationally recognized standards and legal frameworks:
| Legal basis / law | Jurisdiction / framework | Reference standard |
|---|---|---|
| WCAG 2.1 Level AA | Global (international W3C standard) | W3C Recommendation |
| WCAG 2.2 Level AA | Global (international W3C standard) | W3C Recommendation |
| ADA Title III | United States - public accommodations | None named by regulation — the DOJ and U.S. courts reference WCAG 2.1 AA |
| Section 508 | United States - federal agencies | Revised 508 Standards (2017) |
| European Accessibility Act (EAA) | European Union - private sector | EN 301 549 / WCAG 2.1 AA |

2. FlexAccesses Approach
2.1. Widget
The FlexAccesses widget is designed to help websites improve their accessibility in accordance with the WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance criteria. It applies a combination of automated remediation where reliable, user-controlled accessibility profiles (for users with visual, motor, cognitive or seizure-related sensitivities), and accessibility interface controls (contrast, fonts, spacing, animation and navigation).
The widget does not make permanent changes to the underlying source code of a website and is not intended to replace accessible design and development practices. Where automated remediation is not technically feasible or reliable for a specific barrier, the widget prioritizes manual remediation or reports the issue to the website owner.
2.2. Accessibility Audits
Our manual accessibility audits are performed by trained specialists using a combination of the WCAG-EM (Website Accessibility Conformance Evaluation Methodology), assistive technology testing, and direct testing with users with disabilities where included in the Customer’s order. Audit results include a written report describing identified issues, their severity, conformance levels and remediation recommendations.
2.3. VPAT Documentation
VPATs are prepared on the basis of the latest version published by the Information Technology Industry Council (ITI), such as VPAT 2.5 INT or any later version. VPATs cover the applicable standards (WCAG 2.1, Section 508 and EN 301 549) and record the level of support for each criterion based on the evidence available at the time of assessment.
2.4. Continuous Monitoring
For Customers using monitoring plans, our scanning systems periodically evaluate the Customer Website against a broad set of WCAG-aligned checks and report newly identified issues. Monitoring supplements, but does not replace, periodic manual audits.
3. Internal Accessibility Practices
In addition to the services provided to Customers, FlexAccesses applies internal practices aimed at embedding accessibility within our own organization and products:
Designers and developers receive training on WCAG, inclusive design and assistive technologies as part of onboarding and continuing professional development.
Accessibility requirements are integrated into product specifications, design review, code review and quality assurance (QA) processes.
Automated accessibility testing is included in our continuous integration (CI) stages, where builds containing accessibility errors may block deployment of new code in order to prevent regressions.
A manual accessibility review is performed before the release of any new material functionality.
The accessibility maturity of third-party tools, libraries and vendor services is considered during procurement.
Support and sales teams are trained to recognize accessibility-related questions and concerns and to respond to them appropriately.
4. Important Limitations and Disclaimer
We provide this Statement of Compliance in the interest of transparency. The following important limitations apply:
Accessibility laws vary by country. Each country and, in some cases, each administrative unit (state or province) has its own laws, regulations, enforcement authorities and case law. Conformance with WCAG 2.1 Level AA is widely accepted as a strong indicator of accessibility, but it does not automatically guarantee compliance with all potentially applicable laws.
No automated tool can guarantee full compliance. Web accessibility involves contextual assessments, such as logical sequence, plain language and the quality of alt text, which can be evaluated only by people, including users with disabilities.
Customer responsibility. Customers using the FlexAccesses widget remain responsible for the accessibility of their own websites. Our services support and improve accessibility, but do not transfer or eliminate the Customer’s legal obligations.
Not a legal certification. FlexAccesses is not a law firm and does not provide legal opinions. Our reports, VPATs and audit results are professional assessments based on information available at the time of evaluation. They are not certificates admissible in court as proof of compliance, unless expressly issued by an accredited body, which will be stated in the document.
Point-in-time assessments. Audits, VPATs and monitoring reports reflect the state of a website at a specific point in time. Websites change frequently, and continuous assessment is required to maintain a conformance level.
5. How We Keep Our Knowledge Current
Accessibility standards and laws evolve. We monitor developments in WCAG working groups, European standardization bodies (ETSI, CEN and CENELEC), U.S. federal regulations (the Department of Justice and the U.S. Access Board) and case law in the field of digital accessibility. When standards and laws change in a way that affects our products or services, we update our methodology, internal training and customer communications accordingly.
Where appropriate, we also participate in industry working groups and professional accessibility communities and engage in dialogue with organizations advocating for the rights of persons with disabilities, so that we continue to take into account the lived experience of the people our work is intended to serve.
6. Raising Concerns and Suggestions

Deadline calendar
The dated obligations we track, with the technical standard each one names and the regulator source behind it. The homepage shows the first three; this is the full list.
| Regulation | Who it applies to | Standard it names | Deadline |
|---|---|---|---|
| European Accessibility Act | Any business selling to consumers in the EU, wherever it is registered | EN 301 549 | In force since 28 June 2025Already enforceable. The only exemption for services is microenterprises — fewer than 10 employees and under €2 million annual turnover. Being based outside the EU does not exempt you.Regulator source — European Accessibility Act |
| ADA Title II | US state and local government, including public universities | WCAG 2.1 AA | 26 April 202726 April 2028 — populations under 50,000 and special districtsThe DOJ extended both dates by one year on 20 April 2026. The extension moved the deadline only — the underlying obligation stayed in force throughout.Regulator source — ADA Title II |
| HHS Section 504 | US healthcare organisations receiving federal funding | WCAG 2.1 AA | 11 May 202710 May 2028 — recipients with fewer than 15 employeesExtended by one year on 7 May 2026. Meeting the Title II rule does not satisfy this one; an organisation can fall under both.Regulator source — HHS Section 504 |
| ADA Title III | US private businesses open to the public | None named | No regulatory deadlineNo regulation names a technical standard for private businesses; courts and the DOJ reference WCAG instead. It is listed here because leaving it out of a full calendar reads as an omission — but anyone selling you a Title III deadline is inventing it. |
