Accessibility Statement

01

Our Commitment

CDJ Enterprises believes that books, stories, educational resources, ecommerce services, and publishing information should be available to as many people as reasonably possible.

We are committed to improving the accessibility and usability of:

• The CDJ Enterprises website.
• The CDJ Books online store.
• Product and book-information pages.
• Customer and affiliate forms.
• Video and media content.
• Downloadable reader and educator resources.
• Future digital products and educational materials.

Accessibility is an ongoing responsibility rather than a one-time project. We expect to review and improve the website as its content, products, technology, and audience grow.

02

Our Accessibility Goal

CDJ Enterprises aims to follow recognized accessibility principles and work toward conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, commonly known as WCAG.

Our practical goal is to design and maintain website content that is:

• Perceivable: Information should be available in forms that visitors can perceive.
• Operable: Website controls should be usable through different input methods.
• Understandable: Content and interactions should be clear and predictable.
• Robust: Content should work with a reasonable range of browsers, devices, and assistive technologies.

03

Measures We Take

Accessibility considerations are incorporated into the website’s design, content, publishing, and maintenance practices where practical.

Measures may include:

• Using semantic HTML structure.
• Maintaining logical heading levels.
• Providing text alternatives for meaningful images.
• Using readable typography and adequate spacing.
• Maintaining sufficient visual contrast.
• Supporting keyboard navigation.
• Providing visible keyboard-focus indicators.
• Using descriptive link and button text.
• Labeling forms and required fields.
• Presenting understandable validation messages.
• Designing responsive layouts for different screen sizes.
• Avoiding unnecessary motion and animation.
• Testing important customer pathways.
• Reviewing new pages and features before publication.

04

Website Accessibility Features

The website is designed to support:

• Responsive use on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
• Keyboard access to primary navigation and interactive controls.
• Visible focus indicators for keyboard users.
• Text resizing through browser controls.
• Readable line spacing and paragraph width.
• Consistent navigation and page structure.
• Descriptive page titles and headings.
• Alternative text for meaningful editorial and product images.
• Reduced-motion preferences where supported.

Visitors may use browser zoom, operating-system accessibility settings, screen readers, voice-control tools, keyboard navigation, magnification software, or other assistive technologies according to their needs.

05

Content Accessibility

We aim to present website content in a clear and understandable way.

Our content practices include:

• Using headings to organize longer pages.
• Keeping paragraphs reasonably short.
• Using plain and direct language where practical.
• Avoiding links such as “click here” when more descriptive wording is available.
• Using lists and tables only where they improve understanding.
• Explaining specialized terms where needed.
• Not relying solely on color to communicate essential meaning.
• Providing meaningful image descriptions where appropriate.

Decorative images may intentionally use empty alternative text so screen readers can skip them.

06

Online Store and Checkout

The CDJ Books store uses WooCommerce for product pages, shopping carts, customer accounts, and checkout.

We aim to make key purchasing tasks accessible, including:

• Reviewing product information.
• Selecting available product options.
• Adding products to the cart.
• Reviewing the cart.
• Entering billing and shipping information.
• Reviewing validation messages.
• Selecting a payment method.
• Reviewing the final order total.
• Submitting an order.

Payment processing may involve a third-party payment provider. Accessibility within a third-party payment interface may depend partly on that provider.

A customer who experiences difficulty completing a purchase should contact CDJ Enterprises so that reasonable assistance or an alternative method can be considered.

07

Forms, Accounts, and Affiliate Registration

The website may contain contact forms, customer-account forms, checkout fields, and affiliate registration or login forms.

We aim for forms to include:

• Visible field labels.
• Clear instructions.
• Identification of required fields.
• Logical keyboard order.
• Understandable error messages.
• Reasonable color contrast.
• Keyboard-accessible buttons and links.
• Confirmation after successful submission.

Security, spam-prevention, or payment tools may occasionally introduce accessibility barriers. Please report any such barrier so that we can investigate it.

08

Video, Audio, and Embedded Media

The website may contain embedded YouTube videos and may later include interviews, promotional videos, readings, audiobooks, or other media.

Where practical, we aim to provide:

• Accurate captions for spoken video content.
• A transcript or meaningful written summary.
• Descriptive titles for embedded media.
• Controls that can be operated by keyboard.
• Alternatives for essential information communicated visually.

Captions generated automatically by a third-party platform may contain errors. We will improve or replace them where practical, particularly when a video communicates essential information.

09

Documents and Downloadable Resources

CDJ Enterprises may publish discussion guides, educator materials, press resources, forms, and other downloadable files.

We aim to make newly created documents accessible through practices such as:

• Using meaningful document titles.
• Applying logical heading structures.
• Providing readable text rather than image-only text.
• Adding alternative text to meaningful images.
• Maintaining logical reading order.
• Using accessible tables where necessary.
• Providing sufficient contrast.
• Offering an HTML or alternative version where practical.

Some older documents or files supplied by third parties may not yet meet these goals.

10

Third-Party Services and Content

The website depends on third-party platforms, plugins, and services that CDJ Enterprises does not fully control.

These may include:

• WordPress and WordPress plugins.
• WooCommerce.
• Payment processors.
• YouTube.
• Shipping or fulfillment services.
• Affiliate-account features.
• Email, security, and anti-spam services.
• External retailers or social-media platforms.

We encourage third-party providers to maintain accessible services, but we cannot guarantee the accessibility of an independent platform, website, application, or document.

Please report third-party accessibility problems encountered through a core CDJ Enterprises customer journey. We may be able to provide assistance, identify an alternative, or raise the issue with the provider.

11

Known and Potential Limitations

Despite our efforts, some website content or features may not yet be fully accessible to every visitor.

Potential limitations may include:

• Third-party checkout or payment interfaces.
• Embedded YouTube controls or automatically generated captions.
• Older PDF or downloadable documents.
• Third-party forms, widgets, or account areas.
• Images awaiting improved alternative text.
• Temporary issues introduced by a software update.

This list does not necessarily mean that every listed limitation is currently present. It identifies areas that require continuing review as the website evolves.

12

Assistive Technology and Browser Compatibility

The website is intended to work with modern browsers and common assistive technologies.

Accessibility may be affected by:

• An outdated browser.
• An outdated operating system.
• Browser extensions that alter page behavior.
• Disabled JavaScript where a feature requires it.
• Very old assistive-technology versions.
• Third-party services loaded within the website.

For the best experience, use a current version of a major browser and keep assistive technology updated where possible.

How We Respond to Accessibility Reports

When an accessibility report is received, we may:

• Acknowledge the message.

• Attempt to reproduce the reported problem.
• Identify whether the issue originates from CDJ Enterprises or a third party.
• Provide an interim alternative where practical.

Issues preventing checkout, account access, essential product information, or contact with CDJ Enterprises will generally receive priority.

16

Ongoing work may include:

• Reviewing important pages with automated testing tools.
• Conducting keyboard-only reviews.
• Checking heading structure and form labels.
