Priorities
Each checkpoint has a priority level assigned by the Working Group based on the checkpoint's impact on accessibility
Priority 1
A Web content developer must satisfy this checkpoint. Otherwise, one or more groups will find it impossible to access information in the document. Satisfying this checkpoint is a basic requirement for some groups to be able to use Web documents.
Priority 2
A Web content developer should satisfy this checkpoint. Otherwise, one or more groups will find it difficult to access information in the document. Satisfying this checkpoint will remove significant barriers to accessing Web documents.
Priority 3
A Web content developer may address this checkpoint. Otherwise, one or more groups will find it somewhat difficult to access information in the document. Satisfying this checkpoint will improve access to Web documents.
Some checkpoints specify a priority level that may change under certain (indicated) conditions.
Compliance
There are three defined levels of compliance:
Compliance level “A”: All checkpoints of Priority 1 are satisfied.
Compliance level “AA”: All checkpoints of Priorities 1 and 2 are satisfied.
Compliance level “AAA”: All checkpoints of Priorities 1, 2 and 3 are satisfied.
The website has been developed in accordance with the compatibility criteria on compliance level “AA”.
