LEGAL RESTRICTIONS & TERMS OF USE
Madera County maintains this site to inform you about the many
offerings of the county. In using this site, you agree to the
terms and conditions listed below.
ACCESSIBILITY
The Madera County web site is designed and is in compliance with
Level A standards of Priority 1 accessibility standards
as set forth by the The
Federal Information Technology Accessibility Initiative,
and the Web Accessibility Initiative. The Madera County web site
also meets the United States Federal Standards of Web-based Intranet
and Internet Information and Applications (1194.22).
Web-based Intranet and Internet Information and Applications
(1194.22)
The criteria for web-based technology and information are based
on access guidelines developed by the Web Accessibility Initiative
of the World Wide Web Consortium. Many of these provisions ensure
access for people with vision impairments who rely on various
assistive products to access computer-based information, such
as screen readers, which translate what's on a computer screen
into automated audible output, and refreshable Braille displays.
Certain conventions, such as verbal tags or identification of
graphics and format devices, like frames, are necessary so that
these devices can "read" them for the user in a sensible
way. The standards do not prohibit the use of web site graphics
or animation. Instead, the standards aim to ensure that such
information is also available in an accessible format. Generally,
this means use of text labels or descriptors for graphics and
certain format elements. (HTML code already provides an "Alt
Text" tag for graphics which can serve as a verbal descriptor
for graphics). This section also addresses the usability of multimedia
presentations, image maps, style sheets, scripting languages,
applets and plug-ins, and electronic forms.
