  • Compliance with Global Accessibility Standards: We strive to meet the needs of all of our members, by conforming with established accessibility standards, such as the W3C Web Content Guidelines 2.2 Level AA (WCAG 2.2 AA) and the European Harmonized Standard EN 301 549.
  • Regular testing: We regularly test our services against the latest accessibility guidelines, such as the WCAG 2.2 AA, and make necessary updates to sustain accessibility.
  • Feedback mechanisms: We have established channels for users to provide feedback on accessibility issues and aim to address concerns promptly.
  • We recognize that there is more work to be done: We commit to continuing to do the work to help everyone, everywhere, have the opportunity to connect, belong, and build meaningful relationships—free from barriers, bias, or exclusion.

Description of the Service and Measures to Support Accessibility

Hinge is on a mission to create meaningful connections for every single person worldwide.

  • Screen reader compatibility: Functional with popular screen readers
  • Multimedia alternatives: Alternative text accompanying visual and multimedia content.

Our service is delivered through an interface that works to support accessibility by:

  • Simple navigation: Logical layouts with consistent headings, landmarks, and menus

  • Help and support: Guides in accessible formats, where warranted
  • Error notifications: Clear and descriptive error messages to guide users in resolving issues
