Committed to accessibility.
Athlytix is committed to improving accessibility for the coaches, staff, and administrators who use the platform. This statement covers our target standard, current posture, and how to report an issue.
Purpose
Athlytix, LLC is committed to improving accessibility for institutional users of the Athlytix platform, including coaches, staff members, administrators, and other authorized users.
This Accessibility Statement describes Athlytix's accessibility target standard, current accessibility posture, reporting process, known limitations, and roadmap for improvement.
Athlytix is currently an early-stage, founder-led SaaS provider. Accessibility responsibility is currently owned by the founder as part of product development, customer support, and institutional readiness.
Scope
This Accessibility Statement applies to customer-facing Athlytix interfaces, including:
- The Athlytix web application.
- The Athlytix mobile application, where available.
- Recruiting, roster, player evaluation, and document-upload workflows.
- Mobile capture, camera upload, and field-facing workflows where available.
- Settings, administrative, and team-management workflows.
- Customer support and onboarding materials created by Athlytix.
This statement does not apply to third-party websites, applications, operating systems, browsers, assistive technologies, or services not controlled by Athlytix.
Target Accessibility Standard
Athlytix is adopting WCAG 2.1 Level AA as its target accessibility standard for the Athlytix web application and applicable customer-facing interfaces.
Athlytix has not yet completed a formal third-party accessibility audit or VPAT/Accessibility Conformance Report for the current product version. Athlytix intends to evaluate and improve accessibility through documented testing, issue tracking, remediation planning, and product roadmap work.
Current Accessibility Posture
Athlytix is working to implement accessibility directly within the primary product experience. Athlytix does not rely on a separate accessibility mode, alternate "lite" version, third-party accessibility overlay, or AI-based alternate interface as a substitute for accessible product design.
Current accessibility-related practices and planned controls include:
- Use of semantic HTML where practical.
- Keyboard navigation review for core workflows.
- Visible focus-state review.
- Form label and error-message review.
- Modal and dialog accessibility review.
- Color contrast review.
- Screen-reader review for selected workflows.
- Accessibility issue tracking in the product backlog.
- Accessibility review for material UI changes.
- Planned automated accessibility checks using tools such as axe-core, Playwright accessibility checks, or equivalent tooling.
Known Limitations
Athlytix is early-stage and has not yet completed full accessibility testing across all workflows. Known or likely areas requiring additional review include:
- Complex tables and data-heavy recruiting boards.
- Filters, menus, dropdowns, and popovers.
- Modal and dialog focus management.
- File upload, camera capture, and mobile workflows.
- Drag-and-drop or multi-step workflows where applicable.
- Keyboard-only navigation across all major features.
- Screen-reader labeling and heading structure across all major pages.
- Color contrast and visual focus consistency across redesigned interfaces.
- Error messages, form validation, and status announcements.
Athlytix will track and prioritize accessibility issues based on severity, user impact, customer impact, feasibility, and product risk.
Accessibility Issue Reporting
Users, institutions, or reviewers may report accessibility issues by contacting:
When reporting an accessibility issue, please include, where possible:
- Page or workflow affected.
- Description of the issue.
- Browser and operating system.
- Assistive technology used, if applicable.
- Steps to reproduce the issue.
- Screenshots or screen recordings, if appropriate.
- Severity or impact on the user's ability to complete the workflow.
Issue Tracking and Remediation
Accessibility issues reported to Athlytix will be reviewed by the founder and tracked in the product backlog or issue management process.
Athlytix will prioritize accessibility issues based on:
- Whether the issue blocks access to a core workflow.
- Whether a workaround exists.
- Number of users or customers affected.
- Severity of impact.
- Relationship to WCAG 2.1 AA criteria.
- Technical feasibility and product risk.
- Customer contractual requirements, where applicable.
Material accessibility issues may be addressed through bug fixes, design updates, component improvements, workflow changes, documentation updates, or roadmap planning.
Accessibility Testing Approach
Athlytix intends to use a combination of automated and manual accessibility testing, including:
- Automated accessibility checks for selected pages/workflows.
- Keyboard-only testing of core workflows.
- Screen-reader testing of selected workflows, such as VoiceOver, NVDA, or equivalent tools.
- Color contrast checks.
- Review of form labels and error states.
- Review of modal/dialog behavior.
- Review of focus management.
- Review of mobile capture and upload workflows where applicable.
Automated testing alone is not sufficient to establish full accessibility conformance. Athlytix intends to combine automated checks with manual testing and customer feedback.
VPAT / Accessibility Conformance Report Status
Athlytix has not yet completed a formal VPAT or Accessibility Conformance Report for the current product version.
Athlytix may evaluate completion of a VPAT/ACR after initial accessibility testing, remediation of material issues, and product maturity improvements. A third-party accessibility audit or VPAT/ACR may be considered as institutional customer requirements and procurement needs increase.
Contractual Accessibility Commitments
Athlytix is willing to review reasonable institutional accessibility obligations as part of customer contracting, including:
- Accessibility issue reporting.
- Remediation planning.
- Roadmap commitments.
- Current conformance status.
- Documented exceptions.
- Mutually agreed remediation timelines.
Any contractual commitment should reflect the product's current tested conformance status, known limitations, documented exceptions, and mutually agreed remediation process.
No Accessibility Overlay Reliance
Athlytix does not rely on a third-party accessibility overlay, separate accessibility mode, alternate lite version, or AI-generated alternate interface as the primary means of accessibility support.
Athlytix's goal is to improve accessibility directly in the primary Athlytix web and mobile user experience.
Review and Maintenance
This Accessibility Statement will be reviewed at least annually and updated after material changes to the Athlytix product, accessibility testing process, customer requirements, accessibility roadmap, or applicable legal/procurement requirements.
