Accessibility Statement

Effective 1 January 2026 · Last updated 27 May 2026

Our commitment

Circus Corporation is committed to making its website accessible to as many people as possible, including those with disabilities. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA standard.

This statement applies to the Circus marketing website at circus.app.

Compliance status

This website is partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 Level AA. Partial conformance means that some content may not fully conform to the standard. Known limitations are listed below.

Known issues

Hero background video: The autoplay background video does not have captions or an audio description. The video is decorative and carries no information required to understand the page content.
Reveal animations: Content using the scroll-reveal animation (.reveal elements) starts invisible and animates in on scroll. Users who navigate via keyboard or screen reader will see the content immediately, as scroll-triggered reveal is bypassed for non-visual navigation.
Eyebrow labels: Section eyebrow labels (e.g., “FEATURES,” “HOW IT WORKS”) use the primary coral color (#E8604E) at a contrast ratio of approximately 3.1:1 against the page background. These labels are supplemental and are always paired with a heading that meets contrast requirements; the section’s meaning is not conveyed by the eyebrow alone.
Mobile menu background isolation: When the mobile navigation drawer is open, background content is hidden visually and keyboard access is restricted via a JavaScript focus trap. Full inert attribute isolation for assistive technologies is not yet implemented.

What we’ve done

All images and decorative SVGs have aria-hidden="true" or descriptive alt attributes
Navigation landmarks use semantic HTML (<nav>, <main>, <footer>)
<main> element has id="main-content" — the skip link targets a valid anchor
Skip navigation link appears at the top of every page for keyboard users
The cookie consent banner uses role="dialog", aria-modal="true", and aria-label; focus moves to the first button when the banner appears, and Tab/Shift-Tab are trapped within the dialog; Escape rejects optional cookies and closes the banner
The mobile menu uses aria-expanded, aria-label, role="dialog", aria-modal="true", and a keyboard focus trap with Escape-to-close
Dropdown menus use aria-expanded, aria-haspopup, and aria-controls
Animations respect the prefers-reduced-motion media query — all animations are disabled for users who have requested reduced motion
The hero video element uses muted and does not autoplay audio
All interactive elements are keyboard accessible
Page language is declared (lang="en")
Global :focus-visible focus rings applied to all interactive elements — coral outline, 2px solid, 3px offset
Navigation and footer links have minimum 44×44px touch targets
GDPR/PECR-compliant cookie consent banner implemented
The coral hover accent token (--coral-deep) meets WCAG AA contrast (5.6:1) against the page background
Footer link text meets the 4.5:1 contrast ratio requirement against background
