Longueuil, March 23, 2009 - HumanWare Canada and Sosign Interactive are proud to announce the launch of a new eCommerce website accessible to people with disabilities.
In addition to a redesigned appearance and an optimized presentation of HumanWare products, this new website provides enhanced accessibility for visitors who are blind or have limited access to web content. This new website provides several accessibility features. These include : a high contrast color selector, keyboard shortcuts to key sections and descriptions of images. The redesign of the architecture and the way content is displayed also contribute to increased accessibility.
HumanWare’s new website offers visitors from the US, the UK and the rest of Europe online purchasing options for a wide range of products in their own currency. These features will soon be available in Canada and other regions. Also, new products will be added to the list of those already available for online purchasing.
HumanWare Canada and Sosign Interactive hope that this new website will be part of a trend towards the creation of more accessible websites for all. We encourage existing online stores to make their websites more accessible to people with disabilities, as they represent a growing segment of visitors and online shoppers.
