Accessibility Statement

Last updated: 6/28/2026

1. Our commitment to accessibility

DentiHire is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We believe the ability to search for a dental job, post a role at your practice, or connect with a qualified candidate should be available to everyone — regardless of ability, assistive technology, device, or connection speed. Accessibility is not a feature we ship once; it is an ongoing responsibility that informs how we design new pages, how we review pull requests, how we choose third-party components, and how we respond to feedback from the people who use our platform every day.

We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards. This statement explains the standards we follow, the measures we have already implemented, the known limitations we are still working to resolve, and how you can get in touch if you encounter a barrier on our website.

2. Conformance status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) define requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. They define three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. DentiHire is designed and built to be conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA. "Conformant" means that the content fully conforms to the accessibility standard without any exceptions, while "partially conformant" means that some parts of the content do not yet fully conform. We currently consider DentiHire to be partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA, with the known issues described in the "Known limitations" section below.

3. Measures we take to support accessibility

DentiHire takes the following measures to ensure accessibility of our platform:

  • Include accessibility as part of our internal design and engineering review checklist for every new feature.
  • Use semantic HTML so that screen readers, browser reader modes, and search engines can correctly interpret the structure of every page.
  • Provide visible keyboard focus indicators throughout the interface and confirm every interactive control can be reached using only the keyboard.
  • Maintain color contrast ratios that meet or exceed WCAG 2.1 AA for text, icons, form fields, and interactive states.
  • Provide descriptive alternative text for meaningful images and mark decorative images as such so they are skipped by assistive technology.
  • Use ARIA landmarks, labels, and live regions where native HTML semantics are not enough — for example, when announcing form errors or toast notifications.
  • Respect the user's operating system preferences for reduced motion, dark mode, and high contrast.
  • Test with automated tools, manual keyboard testing, and screen readers as part of our release process.

4. Assistive accessibility widget

To make it easier for visitors to personalize their experience without leaving the page, DentiHire includes the UserWay accessibility widget on every page. The widget loads from a third-party content delivery network and provides on-page controls for:

  • Increasing or decreasing text size and line spacing.
  • Switching to dyslexia-friendly fonts.
  • Enabling high-contrast and dark color modes.
  • Highlighting links, pausing animations, and hiding distracting images.
  • Activating an on-screen reading guide and a cursor magnifier.

You can open the widget at any time by clicking the floating accessibility icon typically displayed in the lower corner of the screen. The widget settings persist across pages on this site but are not shared with any other website you visit.

5. Compatibility with browsers and assistive technology

DentiHire is designed to be compatible with recent versions of major web browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Apple Safari, on both desktop and mobile devices. We test the most common candidate and employer flows against the following assistive technologies:

  • NVDA and JAWS with Chrome and Firefox on Windows.
  • VoiceOver with Safari on macOS and iOS.
  • TalkBack with Chrome on Android.
  • Native operating-system zoom up to 200% without horizontal scrolling.

DentiHire is not designed to be compatible with browsers older than three major versions, or with assistive technology that has not received vendor updates in a similar period. Using an unsupported browser may degrade the accessibility of the experience.

6. Known limitations

Despite our best efforts, some areas of DentiHire may not yet be fully accessible. Known limitations include:

  • User-generated content. Job descriptions, employer profiles, candidate resumes, and uploaded documents are written and uploaded by users. We cannot guarantee that every uploaded PDF or image contains a proper text layer or alternative text. If you encounter content you cannot read, contact us and we will request an accessible version from the author.
  • Third-party embeds. Some pages embed third-party content (such as payment forms and analytics widgets) whose accessibility is controlled by the vendor. We choose vendors that publish their own accessibility statements but we do not control their codebases.
  • Legacy blog posts. A small number of older articles may use heading structures or color choices that predate our current standards. We update these on a rolling basis.

7. Feedback and contact information

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of DentiHire. If you encounter any barriers, have suggestions for improvement, or need information on this site provided in an alternative format, please contact us:

We try to respond to accessibility feedback within five business days. When you contact us, please include the page URL, a description of the issue, the assistive technology and browser you are using, and the outcome you were trying to achieve. The more detail you can share, the faster we can reproduce the issue and ship a fix.

8. Formal complaints

If you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to escalate your complaint to the appropriate regulator in your jurisdiction. In the United States, accessibility complaints related to public accommodations may be filed with the U.S. Department of Justice under the Americans with Disabilities Act. In the European Union, complaints may be directed to your national accessibility enforcement body.

9. Assessment and continuous improvement

Our accessibility approach combines self-evaluation, automated scanning during our continuous-integration pipeline, and periodic third-party review of the most frequently visited pages. Findings are added to our backlog and prioritized based on impact. This statement is reviewed at least annually and updated whenever we ship significant changes to the platform.
