Due to Bird in Hands use of software as a service (SAAS) providers for this website, third party integrations for themes and specialty applications or features for website functionality, and links or embeds to third party media on external services, there may be components that are beyond our control and can only achieve a partial level of accessibility conformance.

We rely on our service providers to ensure that the fundamental source code used meets all applicable accessibility standards.
