What is ADA Compliance?
ADA refers to the Americans with Disabilities Act, a broad piece of legislation that covers a lot of different aspects of accessibility for people with disabilities. The DOJ has made two affirmations (most recent in 2022) that websites are places of public accommodations and thus must comply with ADA III.
