Accessibility Statement

Last updated: September 27, 2026

Hemlock Mountain Outdoors is committed to making our website and online shopping experience accessible and usable for everyone, including people with disabilities.

Accessibility is an ongoing part of how we maintain and improve our website. As our products, website, and technology evolve, we are working to identify and remove barriers that may make it difficult for someone to browse our gear, understand product information, configure a product, manage a shopping cart, or complete a purchase.

Our Accessibility Goal

Hemlock Mountain Outdoors is working toward conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA.

WCAG provides internationally recognized recommendations for making websites and digital content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological disabilities.

Our current website has not yet undergone a complete independent WCAG 2.2 Level AA conformance assessment. We are actively reviewing and improving the site as part of our ongoing accessibility work.

What We're Working On

Our accessibility efforts include reviewing and improving areas such as:

  • Keyboard navigation and visible keyboard focus
  • Screen-reader compatibility and meaningful page structure
  • Alternative text for meaningful images
  • Descriptive links, buttons, and controls
  • Properly labeled forms and product options
  • Color contrast and information that does not rely on color alone
  • Text resizing, page zoom, and responsive layouts
  • Accessible navigation, menus, dialogs, and interactive elements
  • Product configuration and selection controls
  • Cart and purchasing functionality
  • Clear identification of errors and instructions for correcting them
  • Accessibility across desktop and mobile devices

Accessibility is also being considered as we develop new website features and shopping tools so that accessibility is built into those experiences rather than treated solely as a later addition.

Third-Party Services and Content

Some parts of our website and purchasing experience may rely on technology or services provided by third parties, such as ecommerce, payment, media, application, or other service providers.

While we work to select and configure these services with accessibility in mind, some aspects of their accessibility may be outside our direct control. We continue to evaluate these integrations and will work to provide assistance or an alternative whenever reasonably possible if a third-party feature creates an accessibility barrier.

Need Help Using Our Website?

If you have difficulty accessing information, selecting product options, using a feature, or completing a purchase on our website, please contact us.

We don't want an accessibility issue to prevent you from getting the information or gear you need.

Email: support@hemlockmountainoutdoors.com

You may also use the Contact Us form on our website.

When contacting us, it is helpful if you can tell us which page or feature caused the problem and, if applicable, the browser, device, or assistive technology you were using. This information is helpful but not required for us to assist you.

If an accessibility barrier prevents you from completing something on the website, we will make a reasonable effort to provide the information, assistance, or an alternative way to accomplish the same task.

We aim to respond to accessibility-related messages within two business days.

Feedback Is Welcome

Accessibility works best when the people using a website can tell us where something isn't working.

If you encounter an accessibility barrier, find something difficult to use with assistive technology, or have a suggestion that could make the Hemlock Mountain Outdoors website easier to use, please let us know.

We will use that feedback as part of our ongoing accessibility improvements.

An Ongoing Commitment

Websites change. Products change. Technology changes.

Our accessibility work will continue along with them.

Hemlock Mountain Outdoors will periodically review this statement and our website as improvements are made, new features are introduced, and accessibility standards and best practices evolve.
