Simply accessible.

At VIZIO, our goal is full and equal access to our products and
web content for everyone.

Our commitment to you.

We work to fulfill the digital accessibility requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the 21st Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act (CVAA). To promote accessibility, we have taken the following actions: 

  • We maintain and provide accessibility features in our products. 
  • We have adopted the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1 Level AA as our website accessibility goal for content produced by our organization or provided for our site by third-party developers.
    • Please note that VIZIO strives to ensure our accessibility features work correctly with modern browsers and assistive technology. Because Microsoft Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge (versions prior to 87) do not support the current technical standards and are no longer being supported or updated by Microsoft, we strongly recommend using another browser if you are using assistive technology. We recommend staying up to date with the latest version of your browser by enabling automatic updates in your browser of choice. 
    • We recommend several screen-reader + browser combinations including:
      • JAWS / Google Chrome (Windows)
      • JAWS / Microsoft Edge version 87 or greater (Windows)
      • NVDA / Mozilla Firefox (Windows)
      • Talkback / Google Chrome (Android)
      • VoiceOver / Safari (macOS and iOS)
    • Other browsers and assistive technology software may work, at least in part, with our website, but you may not have the best user experience if you decide to use other combinations.
  • We have initiated internal corporate training on product and web accessibility.
  • We have hired experts in web accessibility to conduct audits and user testing, monitor our website, and help us develop a plan to ensure our digital offerings meet best practices in accessibility.
  • We will continually review our products and website with best practices in accessibility.

We welcome feedback on how to improve the accessibility of our site and our products for all users. For product support, please visit the Contact Us page on support.vizio.com.
