Accessibility Statement

1. Our Commitment to Accessibility

At IMAC GLOBAL, we are committed to ensuring that IMACertified.org is accessible to people of all abilities and backgrounds.

Accessibility is an essential part of our mission to advance inclusivity, dignity, and equal participation in the global arts, creative, innovation, and human potential ecosystem.

We strive to ensure that all visitors—including persons with disabilities—can access information, services, and opportunities on our platform with a comparable level of ease, independence, and confidence.

2. What Web Accessibility Means

An accessible website enables individuals with disabilities to perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with digital content effectively.

This includes support for assistive technologies such as screen readers, keyboard navigation, voice recognition software, and other adaptive tools, while maintaining usability across different devices and operating systems.

3. Accessibility Standards & Compliance

IMACertified.org has been designed and adapted in accordance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, and aims to conform to Level AA standards.

These guidelines are internationally recognized as the benchmark for digital accessibility and reflect best practices for inclusive web design.

4. Accessibility Adjustments Implemented

As part of our ongoing accessibility efforts, we have taken the following measures:

• Defined clear and consistent heading structures across all pages
• Set the primary language of the website to support assistive technologies
• Ensured logical content reading order for screen readers
• Added alternative text (alt text) to meaningful images
• Implemented color combinations that meet recommended contrast ratios
• Enabled full keyboard navigation without reliance on a mouse
• Reduced unnecessary motion and animation where possible
• Ensured accessibility of forms, documents, and downloadable files where applicable
• Made reasonable efforts to ensure audio and video content is accessible

Accessibility considerations are reviewed as part of ongoing content updates and platform enhancements.

5. Partial Compliance Due to Third-Party Content

Some pages or features on IMACertified.org may include third-party content or integrations (such as embedded media, external platforms, or payment services) that are not fully under the control of IMAC GLOBAL.

Where such content does not fully comply with accessibility standards, we acknowledge partial compliance for those specific elements and continue to seek accessible alternatives where reasonably practicable.

6. Accessibility Arrangements (Digital-First Organization)

IMAC GLOBAL operates primarily as an international digital consortium. As such, most services, communications, and certifications are delivered online.

For physical events, programs, or partner venues organized or endorsed by IMAC GLOBAL, accessibility considerations are addressed in collaboration with local hosts and venue operators and may include reasonable accommodations where feasible.

Specific accessibility arrangements for physical locations will be communicated separately for each event or program.

7. Continuous Improvement

We recognize that accessibility is an ongoing process, not a one-time achievement.

IMAC GLOBAL is committed to:

• Periodic accessibility reviews
• Incremental improvements aligned with evolving standards
• Responsiveness to user feedback and accessibility requests

8. Requests, Issues & Assistance

If you encounter any accessibility barriers on IMACertified.org, or if you require information in an alternative format, we welcome your feedback and will make reasonable efforts to assist.
