Accessibility

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2 at Level AA. The site substantially conforms to that standard. Section 5 lists the places where it does not, or where we have not yet been able to verify that it does.

We have not commissioned an independent audit. The testing described below is our own.

Text contrast

Every colour pairing on the site is measured rather than judged by eye, against 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text and interface borders. Where a colour failed, it was changed. Text that sits over a photograph is measured against the actual pixels behind it, because a photograph has no background colour a checker can read.

Keyboard

Everything interactive can be reached and operated with a keyboard alone. Focus is always visible, focus order follows reading order, and no control traps focus except the age dialog, which is meant to. A skip link is the first thing you reach on every page.

The age dialog

It is a modal dialog with the correct roles, it is labelled and described, focus moves into it and is held there, and the rest of the page is marked inert so it takes no focus and is skipped by screen readers. Escape deliberately does nothing, because there is no cancelling that question.

Motion

Every animation on the site respects the reduced-motion setting in your operating system, without exception. With it on, nothing moves: the background film does not play and is not even downloaded, and content that would animate into view is simply there.

Video

Background video is silent, decorative, and never autoplays under reduced motion. The brand film only loads when you press play, and it has its own controls.

Images

Every image has alternative text written when the image is specified, not added afterwards. Images that are purely decorative are marked so assistive technology skips them rather than reading a description nobody needs.

Structure and zoom

One first-level heading per page, headings in order, and named landmarks. Text reflows without a horizontal scrollbar down to 320 pixels wide, and at 200 percent zoom.

Without JavaScript

The site is a set of static pages. With JavaScript disabled, every page, link and piece of content still works. The contact form and the age dialog need JavaScript; nothing else does.

Before each release the site is checked automatically in a real browser, on every page, for:

• text contrast against the actual composited background, classified as large or normal per the guidelines;
• keyboard travel through every focusable element, checking that focus is visible and never hidden behind the sticky header;
• reduced motion, confirming nothing animates and nothing is left invisible;
• heading structure and landmark labelling;
• layout at nine widths from 320 to 2560 pixels, checking for horizontal overflow and for text escaping its column.

These checks are automated, and automated checks cannot catch everything. They do not tell us whether alternative text is a good description, whether an interaction makes sense with a screen reader, or whether a page is genuinely understandable.

The site is built to standards and should work with current versions of the major browsers on desktop and mobile, and with the screen readers and magnifiers that come with them.

It has not been tested with every combination of browser and assistive technology. If yours gives you trouble, we would like to hear about it.

We would rather list these than claim they do not exist.

No independent audit

All testing so far is our own, and automated. We have not had the site reviewed by an accessibility specialist or tested by people who use assistive technology daily.

The brand film has no captions or transcript

It carries music and ambient sound rather than speech, so there is nothing spoken to caption. If narration is ever added, captions and a transcript will be added with it.

Decorative artwork is not described

The graffiti and label artwork are presented as decoration and are not described in detail to screen readers. The product facts they sit beside are given as text.

The age dialog cannot be dismissed

This is deliberate and required for an alcohol brand, but it does mean the only way past the first screen is to answer the question.

If you hit a barrier on this site, please tell us what happened, what page you were on, and what you were using to browse. We will reply, and we will fix what we can.

We aim to respond within five working days. If you need something on this site in another format, ask and we will do our best to provide it.

This statement applies to tiagoroyalebrands.com. It was prepared on 8 September 2026 based on our own testing of the site as built, and will be reviewed when the site changes materially.
