LV.com will work with most screen readers and mobile accessibility tools. If you are sight-impaired in any way and use a screen reader, we would like to know your thoughts and feelings about our website.
To make our content accessible to as many people as possible we provide transcripts of all our audio and video content.
Where we use meaningful images to support content on the page, we use the 'alt' text attribute to help you understand what the image displays and its purpose.
Links you find on pages also make use of alternative text within the 'title' element. Your screen reader may read this out as part of your custom settings. Depending on how you have your software set up, one or more settings may need to be included.
The documents provided on this website are in portable document format or PDF. For text-to-speech you may need to download and install additional software.
We test with the most popular web browsers and operating systems. However, as there are so many we cannot test with all of them.
By choosing the most popular browsers though, we offer you the most choice available. The LV.com site is tested on Windows and Mac OS operating systems including smartphones using iOS and Android.
Our website has been designed to plain English best practices using writing-for-web techniques. We have tried to remove all our jargon, or where we need to have some for legal reasons we at least explain what it means.
We can send product literature to you in Braille, Large font or Audio. For us to make sure that we send you the correct information we'll need your name, address, our product you're interested in and the format you'd like it to be, for example, Braille.
Every web browser has its settings and keyboard shortcuts to use. We've included the most popular below, however we cannot show all of them. For more information, you should refer to your web browser help menu.
In every web browser is the ability to resize the text you view on the screen.

If you use a Mac, press the Apple Key and the plus key.
Please note, if you have a screen reader installed on your device your keyboard shortcuts may have been modified by the application. This is especially important for anyone using the JAWS application.
