Accessibility statement

We want everyone to be able to find, preview, buy and sell sounds on ReadySFX, including people who use a screen reader, a keyboard, magnification or other assistive technology.

Last updated October 9, 2026

Our goal

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA. We're a small team and the site changes often, so we check new pages as we build them and fix problems as soon as we hear about them.

What we do

  • •Every image has a text description, and every button and link, including play, pause and other icon buttons, has a name a screen reader can read out.
  • •The whole site works with a keyboard, with a visible outline showing where you are.
  • •Text and buttons are designed to stand out clearly from the site's dark background.
  • •Pages use proper headings and landmarks, so you can jump between sections.
  • •If your device is set to reduce motion, the site turns off its animations.
  • •Sound previews never play by themselves on page load; you start every one.
  • •Pages adjust to any screen size and can be zoomed to 200% without losing anything.

Known limits

  • •Sounds are audio by nature. We describe each one in words (name, category, length and a description), but the sound itself can only be heard.
  • •Waveform pictures are decorative; the same information (length, play position) is also given as text and in the player controls.
  • •Pack trailers are music and sound effects with no speech, so they have no captions.
  • •Payment happens on Stripe's own checkout page, and Google sign-in on Google's own pages; their accessibility is up to them.
