mortgage website and ADA accessibility requirements Across the country, several lenders, including some customers of LenderHomePage have received demand letters warning them that their websites were at risk of legal action due to possible non-compliance with ADA & Section 508 regulations. 

Section 508 requires federal agencies to make technology, including websites, accessible to everyone. Accessibility involves meeting the needs of people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological. 

These regulations led to the creation of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 which defines how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities. 

Failure to comply with Section 508 of the Department of Justice’s ADA (American with Disabilities Act) Standards for Accessible Design could expose your company to hefty fines, the risk of expensive criminal and civil litigation as well as a reputation for being unfriendly to the disabled.
