At Attentive, we care deeply about compliance with the ADA. Our sign-up unit builder checks for issues with ADA compliance as you build and warns you if your sign-up unit has an issue.
Note: See Design a sign-up unit to learn about how to design a sign-up unit.
For example, you might use a color contrast or font/text size that may not meet WCAG 2.1 AA guidelines. If this happens, Attentive alerts you to the potential issue by displaying a warning message that can guide you to correct the potential issue.
However, if you want to continue creating the unit without making the recommended changes, you can do so by acknowledging certain representations and checking the box that indicates that you accept the risk involved.
* See the Recap of the Attentive bypass terms below for more information.
Note! This warning message will appear and you must recertify the override each time an edit is made to the unit.
Override a compliance issue
You may bypass our ADA warning, notwithstanding the issue(s) identified, if you acknowledge certain representations you are making on behalf of your company. To do so:
- Certify that you intend to accept the risk involved in saving a non-compliant unit by checking the box that appears in the Heads Up! warning message.
- Click Save and continue.
Note: Violations of the ADA (and similar state statutes) including website violations, are heavily litigated and are often brought as class actions. Therefore, non-compliance with the ADA comes with potential substantial risk.
