Accessibility Policy

Last Modified: April 1, 2026

Overview

Digital Canal is committed to ensuring the accessibility of electronic and information technology resources used by members of the university community and general public. This commitment supports our mission of providing quality building, engineering, estimating, and project management software, and is maintained in accordance with relevant federal and state laws.

“Accessible” means that individuals with disabilities are able to independently acquire the same information, engage in the same interactions, and enjoy the same services within the same timeframe as individuals without disabilities, with substantially equivalent ease of use.

Scope

This policy applies to all electronic and information technology used by this website. This includes, but is not limited to, the contexts of purchasing, browsing, and submitting online forms on this website.

This policy applies to materials hosted or provided by Digital Canal or by third parties, whenever these materials are used in official functions of the university.

Policy statements

In order to maintain equal opportunities for all individuals, the goal of this policy is to achieve accessibility as a proactive need, rather than a reactive response. While timely accommodation is required whenever accessibility is not achieved, an accommodation-only strategy is insufficient under this policy.

Digital Canal will maintain processes for evaluating accessibility, and will oversee coordination and implementation of this policy. Digital Canal will publish and maintain technical standards for implementing IT accessibility, including standards for web-based.

Exceptions to the policy are permitted only when full compliance would impose an “undue burden;” when an accessible format constitutes a fundamental alteration to the nature of the program, service, or activity; or when an accessible version of the materials does not exist. In all cases, the requesting individual or unit will be required to document and obtain approval(s) for the exception.

Standards

This website conforms to and will implement the WCAG 2.1 AA policy.

Roles and Responsibilities

Each customer, user, and maintainer of this website is subject to and has responsibilities under this policy.

Individuals responsible for the design, development, management and use of this website will include accessibility in all phases of the software lifecycle.

Resources

Digital Canal will develop processes to periodically assess the accessibility of this website. The results of these assessments will be shared with appropriate individuals. Site owners will be responsible for addressing issues identified within a timely manner.

Enforcement

Address any accessibility-related complaints to us at info@digitalcanal.com.

As part of the complaint process, remediation may include removal of non-compliant resources until such time that they are compliant with this policy.

Policy Review

This policy will be reviewed on a regular schedule, understanding that updates or modifications may be made as the need arises.
