The Makery Group Accessibility Policy & Resources

The Makery strives to achieve the highest levels of satisfaction for all aspects of its online experiences. As part of these efforts, The Makery is dedicated to offering a quality online experience to those with disabilities.

The Makery is working to achieve substantial conformance with generally-recognized and accepted guidelines for website accessibility—specifically, the World Wide Web Consortium’s Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0/2.1 at Levels A and AA (“WCAG”).  The website will continue to be assessed on a recurring basis in an effort to substantially comply with these guidelines.  

​Please be aware that our efforts are ongoing. If, at any time, you have any specific questions, feedback, or concerns about the accessibility of any particular web pages on themakerygroup.com please contact us at hello@themakerygroup.com. Please be sure to specify the Web page/URL in your email, and we will make all reasonable efforts to address your concerns.
