Accessibility

We want everyone to be able to find, read and cook from Plated by Melis, whatever device, browser or assistive technology they use.

1. Our goal

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA.

2. What we do

• Body text is at least 18 pixels, and text colors meet AA contrast on our backgrounds.
• Every page works with a keyboard, shows a visible focus outline and starts with a “Skip to content” link. The recipe menu closes with the Escape key.
• Photos have text alternatives, and decorative drawings are hidden from screen readers.
• Buttons and controls, such as US/Metric, Save and the star rating, have clear labels and states.
• Animation is turned off when your device asks for reduced motion.
• Each recipe has a clean print view with just the recipe card and photo.

3. Known limitations

• Some recipe pages are still being written, and some photos still need a hand-written description.
• Content from other companies, such as Pinterest and future advertising, may not fully meet our standard.

4. How we checked

This statement is based on our own review of the site in October 2026. The site has not yet been audited by an independent accessibility specialist.

5. Tell us about a barrier

If something on the site is hard to use, please email [email protected] with the page address and a short description of the problem. We will do our best to fix it, or to give you the information another way.
