Accessibility Statement

We at Empire Clothing are working to make our site https://www.empiresite.online accessible to people with disabilities.

What web accessibility is

An accessible site allows visitors with disabilities to browse the site with the same or a similar level of ease and enjoyment as other visitors. This can be achieved with the capabilities of the system on which the site is operating, and through assistive technologies.

Accessibility adjustments on this site

We have adapted this site in accordance with WCAG 2.1 guidelines, and have made the site accessible to the level of A This site's contents have been adapted to work with assistive technologies, such as screen readers and keyboard use. As part of this effort, we have also:

Used the Accessibility Wizard to find and fix potential accessibility issues
Set the language of the site
Set the content order of the site’s pages
Defined clear heading structures on all of the site’s pages
Added alternative text to images
Implemented color combinations that meet the required color contrast
Reduced the use of motion on the site
Ensured all videos, audio, and files on the site are accessible

At EP, we believe great style should be for everyone. We are committed to making our website accessible to as many people as possible, including those with disabilities, visual impairments, motor challenges, or cognitive differences. Our goal is simple: remove every barrier so you can browse, shop, and experience EP without frustration. We design with real humans in mind, not just checklists. From the moment you land on our site, we want you to feel the confidence our clothing delivers – without anything getting in your way.
We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level A as our minimum standard and are actively working toward full compliance. Our site features high-contrast text and imagery, scalable fonts that can be enlarged up to 200% without breaking layout, and full keyboard navigation for those who cannot use a mouse. All product images include detailed alt text so screen reader users get the full story of every garment – fabric, fit, and attitude included. Colour schemes have been tested for colour blindness, and we avoid flashing content that could trigger seizures. Interactive elements like size selectors and add-to-cart buttons are clearly labelled and easy to activate. We regularly audit our site with both automated tools and real users who have disabilities to catch issues early and fix them fast.
Shopping with EP should never feel exclusive or complicated. If you use assistive technology – whether a screen reader, voice command software, magnification tools, or switch devices – we’ve built the experience to work with you. Our checkout process is streamlined and logical, with clear error messages and simple form fields. We provide transcripts for any video content and ensure that all downloadable size guides and care instructions are available in accessible PDF formats. For customers in the UK who need additional support, we offer multiple contact methods including email and a dedicated accessibility feedback form. Your input directly shapes how we improve – we don’t just listen, we act.
While we strive for perfection, no website is flawless. If you encounter any accessibility barriers on our site, please contact us immediately at accessibility@epclothing.co.uk. Tell us exactly what the issue is and how it affects your experience. We respond to every report within 48 hours and prioritise fixes based on real user impact. EP is more than clothing – it’s a statement of confidence and inclusion. We refuse to let outdated design or lazy development stand between you and the pieces that make you feel unstoppable. Thank you for holding us accountable. Together, we’re building a bolder, more accessible future – one drop at a time.
