Sikhona, Inc. — Accessibility Statement

Effective Date:  January 27, 2026
Last Updated:  January 27, 2026

 

Sikhona, Inc. (“Sikhona,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all people, including individuals with disabilities. We believe access is not optional — it is essential. Our mission includes building systems that expand opportunity and protect human dignity, and that commitment extends to how we design and maintain our online experiences.

This Accessibility Statement explains the measures we take to support accessibility across our website and digital services (collectively, the “Services”), and how you can contact us if you experience barriers while using them.

 

1. Our Accessibility Commitment

Sikhona is committed to providing an inclusive experience that is:

  • Usable and navigable for all users

  • Clear and accessible across devices and assistive technologies

  • Built to support equitable access to information and services

  • Continuously improved through testing and feedback

We aim to ensure that all visitors can interact with our Services in a meaningful way, regardless of ability.

2. Accessibility Standards

Sikhona strives to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, which are widely recognized as the international standard for web accessibility.

These guidelines focus on ensuring content is:

  • Perceivable

  • Operable

  • Understandable

  • Robust

While we work toward full compliance, we recognize accessibility is an ongoing effort and we continually improve.

3. Accessibility Features & Practices

We work to include accessibility best practices across Sikhona’s Services, which may include:

  • Clear, consistent navigation

  • Semantic HTML structure and logical page hierarchy

  • Text alternatives for images (where appropriate)

  • Keyboard accessibility and focus indicators

  • Readable font sizing and spacing

  • High-contrast design considerations

  • Support for screen readers and assistive technologies

  • Responsive layouts for mobile and tablet devices

  • Captions or transcripts for multimedia content (when available)

We aim to make content accessible for a wide range of users, including those with visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive differences.

4. Ongoing Improvement

Sikhona is committed to improving accessibility through:

  • Regular design reviews and accessibility checks

  • Platform updates based on best practices

  • Monitoring known issues and prioritizing fixes

  • Incorporating accessibility considerations into future enhancements

  • Reviewing feedback submitted by users

Accessibility is not a one-time project — it is a continuous responsibility.

5. Third-Party Content

Our Services may include third-party content or integrations such as:

  • Embedded media players (video or podcast streaming)

  • Event registration platforms

  • Payment processing tools (for store transactions, if applicable)

  • External links to partner or media sites

While we encourage our partners and vendors to maintain accessible experiences, Sikhona cannot guarantee the accessibility of third-party platforms that we do not control. We will do our best to offer support or alternatives when possible.

6. Need Assistance or Want to Report an Issue?

If you experience any difficulty accessing content, using features, or navigating our Services, we want to hear from you. Sikhona welcomes accessibility feedback and will respond as promptly as possible.

  • The page URL (if available)

We recommend using the latest versions of:

  • Major browsers (Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox)

  • Screen reader software and accessibility tools

8. Policy Updates

We may update this Accessibility Statement periodically to reflect improvements, new technology standards, and evolving best practices. Updates will be reflected in the “Last Updated” date above.

We are Sikhona.
We are here.
And we are building for everyone.
