Terms of Service

Last updated: January 2025

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of ADACheck's website accessibility scanning services, website, and any related software or services (collectively, the "Service"). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account, accessing, or using our Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Service.

If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

2. Description of Service

ADACheck provides automated website accessibility scanning and analysis services. Our Service:

  • Crawls specified web pages to identify potential accessibility issues
  • Runs automated checks based on WCAG 2.1 guidelines
  • Uses AI to provide explanations and recommendations
  • Generates reports in various formats (PDF, JSON)

3. Important Disclaimers

3.1 Not Legal Advice

THE SERVICE DOES NOT PROVIDE LEGAL ADVICE. The information and reports generated by the Service are for informational purposes only and should not be construed as legal advice. Accessibility requirements vary by jurisdiction, industry, and circumstances. You should consult with qualified legal counsel regarding your specific compliance obligations.

3.2 No Guarantee of Compliance

THE SERVICE DOES NOT GUARANTEE ACCESSIBILITY COMPLIANCE. Automated testing can identify many common accessibility issues but cannot detect all potential barriers. Studies suggest automated tools can identify approximately 30-40% of accessibility issues. Many WCAG success criteria require human judgment and cannot be fully automated.

3.3 Limitation of Automated Testing

Our scans are automated and may produce false positives or miss certain issues. Results should be verified by qualified accessibility professionals. We strongly recommend supplementing automated scanning with:

  • Manual accessibility testing by trained auditors
  • Testing with assistive technologies (screen readers, etc.)
  • User testing with people who have disabilities

3.4 State-Specific Compliance Information

STATE COMPLIANCE ASSESSMENTS ARE FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. When you select a state jurisdiction for your scan, we provide general information about state accessibility laws and estimated legal exposure. This information:

  • Is based on publicly available legal information and may not reflect recent changes
  • Does not account for all factors that may affect your specific legal situation
  • Should not be relied upon as legal advice or a complete legal analysis
  • May not reflect local ordinances or industry-specific regulations

State laws vary significantly in their applicability, enforcement, and penalties. The risk assessments provided are estimates based on general factors and should be verified with qualified legal counsel in your jurisdiction.
