Steps to take to use accessibility features when viewing a website
When Clym's accessibility solution is enabled in your Clym widget, you are providing more of your website visitors with the ability to interact with your website. With accessibility needs spanning a wide variety, it is very important to make your website's content available to all users. Within the accessibility section of your Clym widget, we allow you to choose from one of many pre-set profiles designed for various use cases, or to make modifications, based on your preferences.
Managing your accessibility settings is an easy, 3-step process:
1. Open the Clym widget
From the website you are on, select Accessibility from the top of the Clym widget.
Please note: if you do not see the Clym widget where you are located, scroll to the bottom of the website, and click the footer link labeled Privacy Center to open the Clym widget.
2. Click Accessibility
Alternatively, from the Clym widget menu, select Accessibility to open the Accessibility menu.
