Accessibility Statement
Effective: July 15, 2025
SMT Research Ltd. (“SMT,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to ensuring that everyone—including people with disabilities—can access the information, products, and services offered through smtresearch.ca (the “Site”).
OUR ACCESSIBILITY GOALS
We aim to meet or exceed the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA by:
• Providing text alternatives (alt‑text) for all meaningful images and media
• Ensuring sufficient colour contrast and scalable text
• Making the Site fully navigable by keyboard and assistive technologies
• Offering clear, consistent heading structure and link descriptions
• Minimizing flashing or blinking content
EFFORTS TO SUPPORT ACCESSIBILITY
To achieve these goals, we:
• Use automated scanning tools and manual audits to identify and address issues
• Incorporate accessibility checks into every major design or content update
• Train our team on inclusive design and development best practices
• Engage third‑party experts periodically for independent testing and remediation advice
LIMITATIONS & ALTERNATE FORMATS
Despite our best efforts, some content may not yet be fully accessible. If you encounter any barriers, please let us know. We will provide the information you need in an alternative format—such as a PDF with enhanced tagging, large‑print document, or phone assistance—within a reasonable timeframe.

Accessibility is an ongoing commitment. We review this Statement and our Site’s accessibility at least once a year, and whenever substantial changes are made to the Site’s functionality or content.
