Which rule applies?
ADA Title II
Applies to state and local governments. The Department of Justice rule adopts WCAG 2.1 AA for web content and mobile apps. Public entities with a population of 50,000 or more must comply by April 26, 2027. Public entities with a population under 50,000, and special district governments, must comply by April 26, 2028. Read the Oregon guide.
Section 508
Applies primarily to federal agencies and the information and communication technology (ICT) they develop, procure, maintain, or use. Vendors selling technology to federal agencies are often asked to document Section 508 conformance, usually with an ACR.
Section 504
Applies more broadly to programs and organizations that receive federal financial assistance, including many schools, colleges, and health and human services providers.
This is a summary, not legal advice. Your counsel or accessibility coordinator decides which obligations apply to you.
Selling software to government?
Public buyers increasingly ask for an Accessibility Conformance Report, test evidence, and a plan for known issues before they sign. We help you answer those questions accurately.
- Accessibility testing of your product against WCAG and Section 508.
- Remediation of the issues we find, or support for your engineers while they fix them.
- ACR preparation and support, based on the VPAT template, written from real test results.
- VPAT evidence: test notes and findings that back up each conformance claim.
- Accessibility sections of procurement responses, so what you promise matches what the product does.
- Human assistive-technology testing with screen readers and keyboard-only use.
An ACR is only as good as the testing behind it. We won't write "Supports" for a criterion we haven't tested.
