1. We are not a certifying body
What Invoset does provide is a third-party scan and a dated record of conformance against WCAG 2.1 Level AA on the day the scan ran. This is documentation of testing, not a certificate.
2. We are not your attorney
Invoset is a software service. Nothing on this site, in our reports, in our badge, or in our communications constitutes legal advice or creates an attorney-client relationship. If you face an actual or threatened legal matter, including a demand letter or litigation, you should consult an attorney admitted in the relevant jurisdiction.
3. No guarantee of outcome
We do not guarantee that running scans, fixing findings, or displaying our badge will:
- Prevent any individual from filing a complaint or lawsuit against you
- Result in a particular settlement amount or court outcome
- Eliminate accessibility barriers for every user with every assistive technology configuration
- Keep you in compliance with every law in every jurisdiction at every moment
What multiple US courts have considered as evidence of good faith effort is a documented, ongoing accessibility program: dated scans, a remediation log, an accessibility statement, and access to qualified human review. Invoset helps produce that documentation.
4. Scope of automated testing
Industry consensus, including positions held by the World Wide Web Consortium and the National Federation of the Blind, is that automated scanning can deterministically detect roughly 30 to 40 percent of WCAG failures. The remainder requires human review by a qualified evaluator.
Invoset reports include findings produced by automated tools (the axe-core engine and visual inference). They do not substitute for human accessibility audits or for testing with users who rely on assistive technology.
5. The badge
The Invoset monitoring badge, when displayed, links to your most recent scan and the date it ran. It is a transparent record. It is not a seal of approval, a certification mark, or a representation that all accessibility barriers on your site have been eliminated.
6. Marketing language guidance for customers
We ask customers to avoid using the following framings, which can create legal risk for both parties and have been challenged in past cases against other vendors:
- "100 percent ADA compliant"
- "Guaranteed lawsuit protection"
- "Fully certified" or "officially certified"
- Any wording that suggests Invoset itself is a regulator or a court
Recommended framings:
- "Tested against WCAG 2.1 Level AA on a monthly cadence"
- "Actively monitored and remediating findings"
- "Documented good faith effort toward web accessibility"
