Question DOCU-12

Has a VPAT or ACR been created or updated for the product and version under consideration within the past year?

Weight20
High RiskNo
RequiredYes
Compliant AnswerYes

Standard Guidance

If your answer is "I do not know," select "No." If the VPAT/ACR is for an older version of the product or has not been updated, its information does not accurately reflect accessibility of the product under consideration.

Answering "NO"

Please state your plans (when and by whom) to complete a VPAT.

Answering "YES"

State the date the VPAT was completed. Include this VPAT in your submission and/or link to its web location.

Reason for Question

VPATs (Voluntary Product Accessibility Template) / ACRs (Accessibility Conformance Report, a completed VPAT) are standard accessibility reporting formats from the ITIC https://www.itic.org/policy/accessibility/vpat (opens in a new tab). They can be self-assessments from a vendor, though higher confidence is given if completed by expert third parties. It is important to confirm the version of the product tested and reported on for the VPAT matches the one under consideration.

Follow-Up Inquiries
