Accessibility
Scam Shield is designed for everyone — including older adults and users with varying abilities.
Accessibility is not an afterthought at Scam Shield — it is a core design requirement. Our primary users include older adults and people who may not be comfortable with technology. Every design decision is made with them in mind.
Large, Clear Typography
Scam Shield uses generous font sizes and high-contrast text throughout. Critical information is never displayed in small or hard-to-read type.
Strong Color Contrast
We maintain WCAG-compliant color contrast ratios for all text and interactive elements to ensure readability for users with low vision or color blindness.
Full Keyboard Accessibility
Every interactive element on Scam Shield is accessible via keyboard navigation with clear, visible focus indicators.
Screen Reader Compatibility
We use semantic HTML, ARIA labels, and proper heading structure to ensure compatibility with screen readers and assistive technologies.
Plain Language
Scam Shield avoids cybersecurity jargon. When technical terms are necessary, we explain them in plain English. Our goal is that anyone can understand our risk assessments.
