Accessibility statement
The Finance People website should work for everyone: with a mouse, with only a keyboard, with a screen reader, on a small phone or with enlarged text. Creative professionals work in very different ways, and that goes for how they read a website too. That is why I aim for the WCAG 2.2 guidelines at level AA. On this page you can read what has been done, where the limits are and how to report a problem.

Goal
The aim for this accountant's website: WCAG 2.2 level AA
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are the international standard for accessible websites. Finance People aims for version 2.2 at level AA. This is an aim, not a formal audit by an external party. If I missed something, I would like to hear about it.
Done
What has been done so far
- Contrast: text and buttons have sufficient colour contrast with the background, in the dark theme as well.
- Keyboard: all links, menus and the form can be reached with the Tab key, with a visible focus outline.
- Alt text: images have a descriptive alternative text. Purely decorative images are skipped by screen readers.
- No horizontal scrolling: pages fit a narrow screen and work at 400% zoom without scrolling sideways.
- Screen readers: headings follow a logical order, tables have a caption and column headers, and form fields have labels.
Build
Built simply: no tracking on the Finance People site
The site loads no third party scripts and no tracking cookies, as explained in the privacy statement about your data. That keeps the pages fast and predictable, also for assistive software. The structure is clear: the sitemap with every page lists everything in one place, and the frequently asked questions about bookkeeping for creatives are expandable blocks that also work with a keyboard.
Waitlist
Accessibility of the 2027 waitlist form
Finance People is fully booked for 2026. If you are interested in 2027, sign up through the form for the 2027 waitlist. The form has clear labels, error messages in text (not only in colour) and works without a mouse. If filling it in does not work for you, simply send an email or WhatsApp message. That counts as signing up.
Limits
What is not perfect yet
I test the pages myself with a keyboard, with zoom and with a screen reader, but not with every assistive tool and every browser. Something may therefore work differently on your device than intended. Sources I link to, such as the Dutch Tax Administration or professional associations, are outside my control and may be less accessible. New pages, for example in the knowledge base, are checked before they go live. I update this statement when the site or the guidelines change. The most recent check was in October 2026.
