Accessibility Statement

Effective date: September 5, 2026

Select Sourcing Solutions LLC wants BEAM NOTE, both the browser extension and the website at beamnoteapp.com, to be usable by as many people as possible, whatever their abilities or the technology they use. We are working toward the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA.

Conformance status

BEAM NOTE is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. “Partially conformant” means that some parts of the content do not yet fully conform to the standard. We have not yet published a formal conformance report (VPAT/ACR); one will be provided on request once an external evaluation has been completed.

Measures we take

• Keyboard access: the panel opens and closes with Alt+H; the composer can be cancelled with Esc and sent with Enter; controls are real buttons and switches with accessible names and states.
• Text and contrast: interface text is drawn at true size regardless of the page's zoom level, and colors are chosen for contrast against both light and dark pages.
• Content that wraps: long text and wide images wrap inside notes rather than forcing a sideways scroll.
• Semantic markup on the website: headings, lists, landmarks and labelled form controls.
• Accessibility is checked as part of our own testing before each release.

Compatibility

BEAM NOTE is designed to work with current versions of Google Chrome on Windows and macOS, together with the screen readers commonly used with Chrome (NVDA and JAWS on Windows, VoiceOver on macOS). The website relies on standard HTML, CSS, JavaScript and WAI-ARIA.

Known limitations

BEAM NOTE draws notes on top of web pages we do not control. Where a page itself is not accessible, we cannot make the notes attached to it fully accessible. The laser connector lines and colored markers are visual aids; the same information is available in text form in the panel's lists.

Assessment approach

We assess accessibility by self-evaluation using manual and automated tests in current Chrome with the screen readers listed above. We have not yet commissioned an external evaluation.

Feedback

If you meet an accessibility barrier in BEAM NOTE, please tell us at support@beamnoteapp.com. Say which page or feature it was and, if you can, what assistive technology you were using. We aim to respond within 5 business days and to propose a fix or workaround within 14 business days.
