While GetWCAG offers separate services to scan and report accessibility issues on your website, the Widget is distinct from those services and does not perform any scanning, testing, or compliance verification.

GetWCAG makes no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, regarding the effectiveness, fitness for a particular purpose, or legal sufficiency of the Widget. We do not warrant that the Widget will identify, resolve, or prevent all accessibility barriers or issues on your site.

We expressly disclaim all liability for any damages, losses, claims, or expenses of any kind arising out of or in connection with your use of the Widget, including but not limited to any claims of non-compliance, inaccessibility, or discrimination.

By installing or using the Widget, you acknowledge and agree that:
