Accessibility statement

About this statement

This statement covers the HarvestHawk portal at portal.harvesthawk.co.uk: the pages for farmers and their teams, the sign-in pages and the pages our own staff use. HarvestHawk AgriSystem Ltd runs it.

We want as many people as possible to be able to use it, whatever their sight, hearing, movement or way of reading, and whatever phone or computer they use.

What you should be able to do

  • Use every page with a keyboard alone, with a clear outline on whatever has focus.
  • Use a screen reader such as NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver or TalkBack.
  • Zoom in up to 400% without the words running off the side of the screen.
  • Choose a light or a dark look, or let your device choose.
  • Turn off movement: the portal follows your device's reduced motion setting.
  • Tap buttons and links that are at least 44 pixels across, so they are easy to hit on a phone.
  • Read what went wrong in words when a form is not right, next to the box it is about.

How accessible the portal is

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.2 at level AA. The portal partly meets them, because of the things listed below.

What is not fully accessible yet

  • PDF downloads (crop reports, quotes, invoices and spray records) are made for printing. They are tagged for screen readers, but their tables and maps can be harder to follow than the same information on screen in the portal.
  • The interactive field maps can be moved and zoomed with the keyboard, and they read out the value at the centre, but the colours of the map picture are not described in full. The report's numbers and its written spots say what the map shows.
  • Map files for farm software (GeoTIFF, KML and shapefiles) are not meant to be read on screen.
  • Some documents uploaded before 2026 may be scanned pictures of pages rather than text.

How we test it

Before each release we run an automated checker (axe) over the portal's pages at phone and desktop widths, in the light and the dark look, and check keyboard use by hand. We are arranging a session with people who use screen readers every day.
