## Description

Checks the accessibility statement you already published against the EU model statement
and its two dates — a consultant charges $150-$250 an hour.

#### What it does

It reads an accessibility statement you have already published and reports what 
the EU model statement requires and your file does not contain. Nineteen checks 
cover the commitment sentence, the legal basis, the compliance status wording, the
three reason categories for non-accessible content, the disproportionate burden 
assessment, the date of preparation, the date of last review, the feedback channel
and the enforcement procedure.

#### How to use it

 1. Install and activate the plugin.
 2. Edit the page or post where you want the tool and add the shortcode `[readystack_accessibility_statement_lint]`.
    In the block editor, use a Shortcode block.
 3. Open the page, paste the file you want to check into the box, and read the findings
    listed underneath. Nothing is uploaded.

#### What you can do with the results

Each finding names the rule it breaks and the fix. Correct the flagged lines, paste
the file again, and keep the clean result as a dated record of the check for your
checklist, ticket or client report.

#### Privacy

The tool runs in the browser of whoever opens the page. The plugin makes no external
requests, sets no cookies, adds no tracking and stores nothing in your database.
It has no settings screen.

#### Source code

The JavaScript and CSS files in the plugin’s assets folder are the complete, human-
readable source. There is no build step: nothing is compiled, bundled or minified,
so what you read is what runs.

#### Free and paid

The free tool on this page is complete for one pasted file at a time: every finding
is listed with the rule it breaks and the fix. Nothing in this plugin is locked 
or time-limited. A separate paid version for teams is sold on our website, not inside
this plugin. Full version: https://getreadystack.com/tools/accessibility-statement-
lint?ref=wporg

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install it from the Plugins
    screen.
 2. Activate it through the Plugins screen in WordPress.
 3. Add the shortcode `[readystack_accessibility_statement_lint]` to the page where
    you want the tool.

## FAQ

### Who is this for?

Public sector web teams in the EU, the digital agencies that publish on their behalf,
and private-sector service providers now covered by the European Accessibility Act.
If somebody on your team owns a page titled Accessibility statement, and a national
monitoring body can sample that page without warning, this extension checks the 
exact file the body will read.

### Why can’t I just ask a chatbot or use a free accessibility checker?

A chat assistant writes you a brand new statement in seconds, but it cannot open
the one already live on your domain, and it has no reliable sense of today’s date
against your last review date. Free contrast and WCAG checkers test pages, not this
document. The defects here are missing sections, stale dates and unfilled placeholders.

### Does the plugin send data anywhere?

No. Everything is worked out in the browser and nothing leaves the page.

### Do I need an account or an API key?

No. The free tool is self-contained.
