Report disclaimer

Every Glimscope report starts with this summary:

About this report. This report lists accessibility issues found by automated testing of the page listed in "Scan scope" on the date shown in the report. Automated testing can detect only a portion of accessibility issues, and many WCAG requirements can only be checked by people, including people using assistive technologies. A report with few or no issues does not mean your website is accessible or compliant.

This report is not legal advice and not a certification, audit opinion or guarantee of compliance with the ADA, Section 508, the European Accessibility Act, EN 301 549, the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (Cth), or any other law or standard. If you have received a legal complaint or need advice about your obligations, consult a qualified lawyer.

Scope and limits of this report

Automated testing only. Glimscope uses automated rules, including the open-source axe-core engine, to test the specific pages listed in the scan scope at the time shown. Automated tools cannot reliably assess many WCAG success criteria. Examples include whether text alternatives are meaningful, whether focus order and reading order are logical, whether complex components work with a keyboard and screen readers, and the accuracy of captions and audio description. For context, Deque Systems (maintainer of axe-core) reported that, in its sample of first-time audits, automated tests identified about 57% of issues by volume, and that automated tests found issues in only 16 of 50 WCAG 2.1 Level A/AA success criteria (deque.com/automated-accessibility-coverage-report). Results on your website may differ.
Results may be incomplete or inaccurate. Automated checks can produce false positives and false negatives. Pages behind logins, pages blocked by robots.txt or rate limits, content loaded after the scan, user-interaction states not triggered, embedded third-party content, PDFs and other documents (unless listed), and native apps were not tested unless the scan scope states otherwise.
Point-in-time. This report reflects the pages as they were when scanned. Changes to your site, its content, plugins, themes or third-party services may introduce new issues.
No "pass" or certification. "No automated issues detected" means only that our automated rules found no failures on the pages tested. It is not a statement that the page conforms to WCAG or complies with any law. Do not present this report, or any part of it, as a certification, accessibility conformance report (ACR/VPAT), audit or legal opinion.
Not legal advice. Accessibility obligations depend on your jurisdiction, sector, size and circumstances, and the law changes. Nothing in this report is legal advice, and no lawyer–client relationship is created. Consult a qualified lawyer about your legal obligations or any complaint, demand letter, lawsuit or regulatory inquiry.
Fix guidance. Suggested fixes are general technical information, partly drafted with AI assistance. Test every change in a staging environment, keep backups, and verify the result with manual and assistive-technology testing. Ideally, include people with disabilities in that testing.
Evidence log. The dated history in this report records the automated testing performed and the issues detected over time. It may help you document your remediation efforts. It is not a guarantee of any legal outcome, and its weight in any proceeding is a matter for you and your lawyer.
Recommended next steps. Fix the issues listed. Complete the manual checklist provided, and consider an expert manual audit and testing with users with disabilities. Publish an accessibility statement with a way for people to report barriers.
Terms. This report is provided under our Terms of Service (https://glimscope.com/terms), including its limitation of liability, which does not affect rights that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law or other applicable law. Report prepared for: the account holder named in the report, or the person who requested a free scan. Not for reliance by any other person.
