Accessibility Auditing Procedures

Packback is deeply committed to maintaining accessibility on our platform to create an environment where every student can explore their curiosity. We strive to conform to the WCAG Level AA Standards on the Packback Questions platform.

Our organization has third-party audits of our site performed against the WCAG Level AA Standards annually. Our first audit was formed in June 2017 following our platform’s initial release in mid-2016 and has been foundational to our organizational practices since the earliest days of our platform’s existence.

Re-audits by a professional third-party auditing firm are performed annually to continue to validate and assess our accessibility.
