Accessibility
Last updated: September 2026
Phoenix exists to make complexity easier to navigate. Our website should do the same.
We aim to make Phoenix resources accessible to as many people as possible, including people who use assistive technology or navigate in different ways.
What we aim for
We are designing the Phoenix website so that people can:
- navigate using a keyboard as well as a pointer or touchscreen;
- use screen readers and other assistive technologies;
- zoom and resize text without losing important content;
- understand links, headings and controls from their labels;
- access information without relying on colour alone; and
- use the site across common screen sizes and devices.
We use WCAG 2.2 AA as our design and testing target. This is not a claim of certification or full conformance.
Public Beta
The Phoenix Encyclopaedia and Phoenix Atlas are launching in public Beta.
That means we are still testing the accessibility of the resources across different devices, browsers and assistive technologies. Automated and manual checks cover selected journeys and layouts. Full testing with screen readers and a wider range of assistive technologies remains in progress. Some issues may remain, particularly in interactive features and visual evidence components.
Accessibility problems are defects, not optional improvements. Where we identify one, we will assess it and work to correct it.
Tell us about a problem
If something on the Phoenix website is difficult or impossible for you to access, please tell us.
It is particularly helpful if you can tell us:
- which page or feature caused the problem;
- what you were trying to do;
- the device, browser or assistive technology you were using, if relevant; and
- what would make the information easier for you to access.
Accessibility contact: hello@phoenixcontinuum.com
If you need information from the website in a different accessible format, contact us and we will consider how we can provide it.
Keeping accessibility under review
We will continue testing Phoenix during public Beta and will update this statement as the website develops.
