Accessibility Statement

At Iron Dog LLC, we believe that stories, community, and creative experiences should be accessible to all. We are committed to ensuring that TheButchersOfBlackwood.com and all Bläckwood digital content are inclusive and usable by people of all abilities.

​

1. Our Commitment

We strive to make our website and digital platforms conform with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, where reasonably practicable. These guidelines are internationally recognized standards for digital accessibility, ensuring that content is:

  • Perceivable – Information is presented in ways users can recognize, whether through sight, sound, or touch.

  • Operable – Navigation and interaction are possible for all users, including those relying on assistive technologies.

  • Understandable – Information and interfaces are clear, consistent, and user-friendly.

  • Robust – Content works with current and future assistive technologies.

We aim to support accessibility in accordance with applicable accessibility laws and recognized standards.

​

2. Measures Taken

To support accessibility, we:

  • Use alternative text for images and non-text elements.

  • Provide closed captions and/or transcripts for video and audio content where possible.

  • Design with high-contrast readability and resizable text.

  • Ensure keyboard navigation is supported throughout our website.

  • Test compatibility with common screen readers (JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver) and keyboard-only navigation.

  • Conduct periodic accessibility audits of our site and digital platforms.

  • ​

3. Ongoing Efforts

Accessibility is not a one-time effort—it is a continuous journey. As technology evolves, we will:

  • Regularly review and update our platforms to maintain WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance.

  • Train our team on accessibility best practices.

  • Actively seek feedback from users with disabilities to identify areas for improvement.

  • Update legacy content to meet current accessibility standards.

  • ​

4. Content Warnings and Accessibility

The Bläckwood series contains mature folk horror content including violence, disturbing themes, and graphic imagery. We ensure:

  • Content warnings and age-appropriate disclaimers are accessible to screen readers and clearly marked for all users.

  • Users can navigate past graphic content descriptions if desired.

  • Warning labels use clear, descriptive language rather than relying solely on visual cues.

 

5. Limitations and Alternatives

While we strive for full accessibility, some legacy content or third-party integrations may not yet fully conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards. Third-party platforms (Patreon, retail sites, social media) maintain their own accessibility standards. We cannot guarantee their compliance but select partners committed to accessibility where possible.

In cases where content is not fully accessible, we will provide alternative means of access upon request, including:

  • Alternative formats for documents or images

  • Text descriptions of visual content

  • Assistance with navigation or content access

 

6. Feedback and Assistance

We welcome your feedback. If you encounter any accessibility barriers on our website or platforms, please let us know so we can address them promptly.

Mailing Address: Iron Dog LLC, 7343 Cascade Road SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49546

Response Time: We will respond to accessibility concerns within 5-7 business days and work to resolve issues as quickly as possible.

 

7. Third-Party Content

Some features on our site link to or embed content from third-party services. While we select accessible platforms when possible, we are not responsible for the accessibility of external websites or services. Please contact those providers directly with accessibility concerns about their platforms.
