Accessibility

Engineered for accessibility, designed to ensure inclusion

The HooYu journey is engineered to be accessible to all people with a range of sight, movement, dexterity, hearing and cognitive disability. We've built accessibility into our underlying code so that our clients can rely on HooYu to help all their customers to complete their KYC journey.

Aria labels

Our code uses aria labels to designate elements that may not be easily recognisable as interactive elements for partially sighted users.

Screen Reader Optimisation

Screen reader optimisation

We ensure that the order of elements in our code matches the logical order of the information presented in reading order so that screen reader users are presented with an easy to digest journey.

Focus indicators

Our UI has focus indicators for users that may not be able to use a mouse. This helps users to know which UI element has the keyboard focus, and our UI design presents the keyboard actionable items.

Save & Continue later

Save & continue later

For users with any motor neuron or neurological disorders that causes fatigue, our Save & Continue later feature enables users to start a journey, pause, take a rest, and then come back to the process.

Alt text

As best practice, we ensure that alternative text for images is added to all informational and functional images and use empty alternative text, alt=”” for decorative images.
