Terms of Use
Bobby's analysis of accessibility is based on the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. For example, to become Bobby approved, a Web site must:
* provide text equivalents for all non-text elements (i.e., images, animations, audio, video)
* provide summaries of graphs and charts
* ensure that all information conveyed with color is also available without color
* clearly identify changes in the natural language of a document's text and any text equivalents (e.g., captions) of non-text content
* organize content logically and clearly
* provide alternative content for features (e.g., applets or plug-ins) that may not be supported
