Accessibility at BlueHarbor
We believe information about insurance, risk and our services should be accessible to everyone. We are committed to improving the usability and accessibility of our website so visitors can navigate, understand and engage with our content.
Our commitment
A more accessible digital experience
BlueHarbor aims to make its website usable by people with a broad range of abilities, including people who use assistive technologies or alternative methods of navigating digital content.
Accessibility is an ongoing effort. We consider how page structure, text, navigation, interactive elements and visual presentation affect the experience of our visitors, and we aim to address barriers as they are identified.
This statement describes our accessibility objectives. It is not a certification that every page or feature currently meets every accessibility standard.
Accessibility principles
What we work toward
Our approach focuses on making digital information easier to perceive, navigate, understand and use.
Clear information
We aim to present content with readable text, meaningful headings, sufficient visual distinction and descriptive alternatives for informative images where appropriate.
Usable navigation
We aim to support keyboard navigation, visible focus indicators, understandable links and controls, and layouts that remain usable across different screen sizes.
Consistent experiences
We aim to use descriptive labels, straightforward language, predictable navigation and helpful instructions for forms and interactive features.
Assistive technology support
We aim to use appropriate semantic page structure and accessible markup to improve compatibility with modern browsers and assistive technologies.
Across devices
We aim to make pages usable on desktop computers, tablets and mobile devices, including at increased zoom levels where the layout permits.
Ongoing refinement
We recognize that accessibility needs and digital technologies evolve. We welcome feedback that helps us identify barriers and prioritize improvements.
Using this website
Accessibility considerations
These are the practices we aim to support throughout the BlueHarbor website as pages and features are reviewed and improved.
Keyboard access
Navigation and interactive controls should be reachable and usable with a keyboard where the feature supports it. Focus indicators should help show which element is selected.
Readable content
Headings, paragraphs and lists should follow a logical structure. We aim to use descriptive link text and avoid relying on color alone to communicate important information.
Images and visual elements
Informative images should have suitable text alternatives where appropriate. Decorative visual elements should not add unnecessary noise for screen-reader users.
Forms and controls
Forms should use clear labels, understandable instructions and helpful error messages wherever those features are available.
Screen readers and assistive tools
We aim to use meaningful headings, landmarks, labels and semantic HTML to help assistive technologies interpret page content and controls.
Responsive presentation
We aim to keep content usable across screen sizes and avoid unnecessary horizontal scrolling or loss of information as the display changes.
Standards and review
Working toward recognized guidance
We use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) as a reference for understanding and improving digital accessibility. These guidelines address areas such as text alternatives, keyboard operation, contrast, predictable navigation and compatibility with assistive technologies.
Our objective is to improve alignment with WCAG 2.2 Level AA where reasonably applicable. We do not represent this website as independently audited, certified or fully conformant unless and until that status has been verified.
Some content or functionality provided by third-party services may be outside our direct control. Where practical, we aim to identify barriers and consider suitable alternatives or improvements.
