Accessibility Statement

Effective July 8, 2026

My Flood Zone Report (official FEMA flood-zone reports for US property buyers and owners) is committed to making myfloodzonereport.com accessible to the widest possible audience, including people with disabilities. We want everyone to be able to read our content, understand our reports, and complete a purchase.

Our commitment: WCAG 2.1 Level AA

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, the internationally recognized standard for web accessibility referenced by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 508. We treat conformance as an ongoing effort, not a one-time task, and we test against this standard when we change the site.

Measures we take

Specific measures built into this site include:

• A skip-to-content link so keyboard and screen-reader users can bypass the navigation.
• Semantic HTML landmarks (header, nav, main, footer) and a single, logical heading structure on every page.
• A visible keyboard focus indicator on every interactive element, so keyboard users can always see where they are.
• Every form field, including the property address input, is associated with a text label, and icon-only controls have accessible labels.
• Text and interface color combinations chosen to meet the WCAG AA contrast ratios (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text and interface components).
• Meaningful alt text on informative images, and empty alt text on purely decorative images so screen readers skip them.
• A responsive layout that reflows and remains usable when zoomed or viewed on small screens.

Known limitations

Despite our efforts, some limitations may remain. We are aware that content or components can occasionally fall short of full conformance, for example, third-party embeds or newly published content before it has been reviewed. We monitor for these and fix them as we find them. If you encounter a barrier that is not listed here, please tell us (see below) so we can address it.

Report an accessibility barrier

If you have difficulty accessing any part of this site, or you have a suggestion that would improve accessibility for you, we want to hear from you. Email [email protected] with the page address and a description of the problem. We aim to acknowledge accessibility reports within 5 business days and to work with you on a resolution or a usable alternative. If you need the information in the report you purchased provided in an alternative accessible format, contact us and we will provide it.

Feedback and formal complaints

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of My Flood Zone Report. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may escalate your concern by replying to our correspondence so it reaches the site operator directly.
