Accessibility Statement

Effective date: May 28, 2026

Last reviewed: May 28, 2026

1. Our commitment

Summit Tech Partners is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards as the marketing site matures.

We believe accessibility is the same kind of discipline we sell our clients: it works best when it is embedded into delivery from the start, not bolted on at the end. We hold ourselves to that standard on our own site.

2. Standards we target

We measure our marketing site against these standards:

• Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). This is the de facto baseline for accessible web content and the standard most enforcement frameworks point to.
• Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), as interpreted to require effective access to the goods and services offered through a public-accommodation website.
• Section 508 of the U.S. Rehabilitation Act where relevant to our federal-adjacent work.
• EN 301 549, the European harmonized accessibility standard, where we engage with EU and UK candidates and clients.

As we add functionality, we are watching the publication trajectory of WCAG 2.2 and intend to align with it on a rolling basis.

3. What is accessible today

The following are in place across the marketing site:

• Semantic HTML structure with descriptive headings, landmark elements (header, nav, main, footer), and consistent navigation across pages.
• Keyboard navigation: every interactive element on the marketing site can be reached and operated with a keyboard alone, including the primary navigation, the What We Do mega menu, and the embedded demo viewer tabs.
• Visible focus indicators on links, buttons, and form controls.
• Alternative text on meaningful imagery, including the Summit logo and the WBENC and WOSB certification badges in the footer.
• Color contrast at or above the WCAG AA threshold for body text on the navy and cream backgrounds.
• Text that resizes cleanly up to 200 percent without loss of content or functionality.
• Responsive layouts that reflow on mobile and tablet without horizontal scrolling.
• Form controls with associated labels, helpful placeholder text, and clear error messaging on the contact and discovery pages.
• Skip-to-content patterns and clear page titles on every route.

4. Known limitations

We know the following gaps exist and we are working to close them. If any of these affect your ability to use the site, please tell us so we can prioritize accordingly.

• PDF resources: the master one-pager and downloadable white papers may not be fully tagged for accessibility. We are working with the source files to add tags, alt text on embedded images, and reading-order metadata. Alternative formats are available on request.
• Embedded video: any video we add to the site will include accurate captions and a text transcript before publication. Until that work ships, no production video is published on the marketing site.
• Demo applications: the four embedded live demonstration applications were built for sales conversations and have not yet been formally audited for accessibility. They run as separate applications under their own URLs (see Section 5 below).
• Mobile screen-reader pass: we run desktop screen-reader checks on every release. The mobile screen-reader pass (VoiceOver on iOS, TalkBack on Android) is ongoing and not yet complete on every page.
• Reduced-motion preferences: most animations on the site are subtle (button hovers, dropdown transitions). We honor the prefers-reduced-motion setting where it is straightforward to do so and will continue adding support across the site.

5. Third-party content and embedded tools

This site embeds tools operated by third parties or hosted under separate properties. Their accessibility is governed by the policies of their owners and operators.

• JobDiva applicant tracking portal, embedded on the Careers page. We surface roles directly from JobDiva. JobDiva's accessibility is governed by their published statement, and we cannot independently warrant their conformance.
• Summit demo applications at stp-agr.vercel.app, stp-pinemark.vercel.app, stp-halcyon.vercel.app, and stp-pwh.vercel.app, embedded on the Data Analytics & AI offering page. These are Summit-operated demonstrations of delivery patterns and use synthetic data. They have not yet been formally accessibility-audited.

If you need to interact with content presented through one of these tools and the tool is a barrier for you, contact us using the feedback channel below and we will provide the content directly.

6. Alternative formats

Any resource on this site is available in an alternative format on request. Email accessibility@summittechpartners.com with the resource name (for example, "Summit Tech master one-pager") and your preferred format (large print, plain text, tagged PDF, accessible Word document, audio recording, or another format you specify), and we will send it within five (5) business days where reasonably possible.

This service is free. We will not ask for a reason or for personal information beyond what we need to send you the resource.

7. Compatibility

The site is designed to work with the following:

• Latest two versions of Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, and Microsoft Edge on Windows and macOS.
• Latest two versions of Apple Safari on iOS and Google Chrome on Android.
• Common screen readers: NVDA on Windows, VoiceOver on macOS and iOS, JAWS on Windows, TalkBack on Android.
• Browser zoom up to 200 percent and operating-system text-scaling up to 200 percent.

The site may also work with other browsers and assistive technology. If you use a specific combination and encounter a barrier, let us know.

8. Technical specifications

The accessibility of this site relies on the following technologies to work with the particular combination of web browser and assistive technologies installed on your computer:

• HTML5
• WAI-ARIA where appropriate
• CSS
• JavaScript (kept to a minimum; the marketing site degrades gracefully when JavaScript is unavailable)

9. Assessment approach

Summit assessed the accessibility of this site through the following:

• Self-evaluation: developers and content owners walked the site against the WCAG 2.1 AA success criteria using a combination of automated tooling (axe DevTools, Lighthouse) and manual review.
• Keyboard-only and screen-reader walk-through: every page of the marketing site has been tested with NVDA and VoiceOver in addition to a keyboard-only test pass.
• Independent audit (planned): a third-party audit is planned in parallel with the compliance work on our Careers AI Screening Agent, on a timeline driven by that project's launch milestones. Results will be summarized publicly here when complete.

10. Feedback and contact

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of the Summit Tech Partners website. If you encounter accessibility barriers, please let us know. Reach out through any of these channels:

• Email: accessibility@summittechpartners.com
• Phone: +1 (908) 739-3100
• Postal mail: Summit Tech Partners LLC, Vero Beach, Florida, United States, attention: Accessibility

We aim to respond to accessibility feedback within five (5) business days and to propose a resolution within ten (10) business days where the issue is within our control. For issues that involve third-party tools, we will work with the vendor and keep you informed of progress.

When you contact us, please tell us:

• The web address (URL) of the page where you encountered the issue.
• A short description of the problem you encountered.
• The combination of browser, operating system, and assistive technology you are using (if you are comfortable sharing that).
• The format you would prefer for the content if you cannot use the page directly.

11. Formal complaints and enforcement

We aim to resolve every accessibility concern directly. If we cannot, you have additional options:

• In the United States, the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice enforces the Americans with Disabilities Act. Information on filing an ADA complaint is available at www.ada.gov.
• If you are in the European Union or United Kingdom, you may have additional remedies under national disability and accessibility law in your jurisdiction.
• If you are in California, you may have additional rights under the Unruh Civil Rights Act and California's Disabled Persons Act.

We would always rather hear from you first.
