Accessibility report for parasol.com
Based on an automated WCAG 2.1 Level AA scan on June 18, 2026.
Under the ADA in the U.S. — and the European Accessibility Act in the EU — business websites must be accessible. parasol.com was checked against WCAG 2.1 Level AA, and 6 types of barrier were flagged.
On this page, the most frequent barrier is "Some images have alt text that duplicates nearby visible text" — found on 2 elements. In total the scan flagged 7 issues across 6 categories of WCAG 2.1 Level AA.
WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the standard U.S. courts apply under the ADA, and the law across the EU under the European Accessibility Act. These barriers block screen-reader, keyboard-only, and low-vision users — and every one of them is fixable. Here's how.
The barriers on this page — and the fixes
Some buttons have no description that screen readers can announce.
WCAG 4.1.2 (Level A) Section 508EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: Visual users see an icon (a heart, a trash can, an X), but screen-reader users hear only 'button' — they don't know if it'll favorite a post, delete it, or close a dialog. This is a critical accessibility blocker and a top lawsuit driver.
How to fix it: Every button needs a text label. If you can't put text inside the button (icon-only design), in your platform's button settings look for an 'Aria label' or 'Screen reader text' field — fill it with what the button does ('Close', 'Add to cart', 'Open menu').
Some links have no readable text — usually icon-only links.
WCAG 4.1.2 (Level A) Section 508EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: Screen-reader users hear 'link' but not where the link goes. Users navigate by listening to a list of links — useless if every entry is just 'link, link, link'.
How to fix it: In your site editor, for icon-only links (social-media icons, navigation arrows), set an 'Aria label' or 'Title' field describing where it goes ('Follow us on Twitter', 'Next page').

Some images have alt text that duplicates nearby visible text.
Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: Screen-reader users hear the same content twice — the surrounding text and then the alt text. Annoying, not blocking. Lower-priority fix.
How to fix it: Find images where the caption or nearby paragraph already says what the image shows, and either change the alt text to add new info or set the alt to empty (so the screen reader skips it as decorative).
This is an automated scan and catches a portion of accessibility barriers; full WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance also requires manual and assistive-technology testing. See our methodology for what we do and don't claim.
