Conformance Status
The ShutterSpace website is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.
We are actively working to address any remaining accessibility issues and achieve full conformance with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. Our ongoing efforts include regular audits, user testing, and continuous improvement of our website's accessibility features.
