Accessibility Statement for Global Women's Connextions

1. Our Commitment to Accessibility At Global Women's Connextions, we believe everyone should have equal access to our global membership community. We are dedicated to ensuring our website, membership portals, and contribution workflows are accessible to individuals of all abilities, in alignment with international WCAG 2.2 Level AA standards. 2. Payment and Contribution Systems To handle global memberships and contributions safely, we integrate third-party financial tools from Stripe and Wise: • Stripe Checkout: We use Stripe's secure payment fields to process credit and debit cards. While Stripe designs its components to support assistive technologies, certain embedded features may present minor keyboard focus or contrast challenges for screen reader users. • Wise Transfers: For direct international bank transfers and multi-currency contributions, we provide workflows routed through Wise. We continuously review these steps to maintain clear visual contrast and readable text instructions. 3. Known Limitations and Third-Party Content We strive for complete accessibility across every page. However, because we rely on external financial networks and global community interactions, some elements are outside our direct programming control: • Embedded Financial Widgets: Certain security verification frames or elements loaded directly from Stripe or Wise may occasionally lack optimal focus indicators or screen-reader descriptions. • User-Generated Content: Contributions, forum posts, or media uploaded by our global community members may not always include descriptive alt-text or captions. 4. Alternative Contribution Options If you experience any technical blocks or accessibility barriers while trying to join our community or make a contribution via Stripe or Wise, we are here to support you. You can contact us directly to arrange alternative processing: • Email Support: info@globalwomenscinnextions.org • Alternative Methods: You can email us to request a manual secure invoice, direct bank wire instructions, or to arrange alternative payment assistance. 5. We Welcome Your Feedback We are continually improving our digital user experience. If you run into any barriers while navigating our platform, please let us know. We aim to respond to all accessibility feedback within 2 business days. • Email: info@globalwomenscinnextions.org
