3.1 Automated Testing Limitations

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT:

Automated testing tools, including axe-core, can only detect approximately 30-50% of accessibility issues. The remaining 50-70% of potential accessibility issues require manual testing by qualified accessibility experts.

The Service uses axe-core, an industry-standard open-source tool developed by Deque Systems. While axe-core is widely recognized and used by major technology companies, it has inherent limitations.

The Service does NOT guarantee that your website is ADA compliant, WCAG compliant, or compliant with any other accessibility standards or laws.

The Service does NOT guarantee that your website will be protected from accessibility-related lawsuits or legal claims.

A "passing" score or high compliance percentage does NOT mean your website is fully accessible or legally compliant.

3.2 Not Legal Advice
