United States
ADA Title III
Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act covers places of public accommodation. There is no codified web technical standard under Title III; courts commonly apply WCAG as a yardstick, and the main driver is private litigation.
- Technical baseline
- No web technical standard is codified. WCAG 2.1 is commonly used as evidence.
- Applies to
- United States — private sector
- Responsible body
- U.S. Department of Justice / federal courts
Americans with Disabilities Act, Title III — public accommodations
What it asks for
- Goods and services of public accommodations are accessible to people with disabilities, including online.
How AccessFold helps
- Accessibility diagnostics and dated evidence against WCAG — commonly 2.1 AA.
What this does not cover
- No tool — including this one — can make a site “ADA compliant” or protect it from litigation.
AccessFold provides diagnostics and evidence relevant to this framework. It does not determine compliance.
