Oracle Accessibility Conformance Report

VPAT® Version 2.0 - October 2017

Name of Product:

Oracle Service Cloud Feedback May 2017

Product Description:

Oracle Service Cloud Feedback Cloud Service (Feedback) contains flexible tools for creating custom surveys in a variety of formats. Surveys can be sent as mailings, served as web pages, or sent as events triggered by a campaign or business rule. With a wide range of formatting and customization options, including survey reminders, market testing, and full analytics integration for tracking results, surveys provide you with a powerful channel for inviting, gathering, and analyzing customer feedback.

End-User interfaces are web pages built in a combination of HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Accessibility features for this solution include Section 508/WCAG applicable features as stated below, support for screen-readers without re-direction to accessible versions of the page, and more advanced accessibility features like ARIA roles/landmarks, to provide good accessibility experiences to users.

This review considers standard elements used in the design of surveys for end-users. For a survey to be fully accessible, any user-generated content, such as templates, images, and other HTML content, should follow accessibility guidelines.

Notes:

This VPAT does not cover the following product areas:

Accessibility standards have been applied only for users taking the survey via any browser, not for the user interface for creating the surveys.

Evaluation Methods Used:

Oracle's policy is to design, develop and test both products and documentation to be accessible. The recommended styles of testing for accessibility include: (i) algorithmic automated tests, (ii) human judgement tests such as tool-assisted tests, visual inspection and manual operation, and (iii) testing with assistive technology by people with and without disabilities. Additional information about Oracle's accessibility program is available on http://www.oracle.com/corporate/accessibility/index.html
