Abstract
Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are disclosed for enabling users to alter website presentations based on selected web accessibility profiles. In one implementation, an accessibility graphical user interface (GUI) for a website is displayed. A selection of one of the plurality of web accessibility profiles included in the GUI is received. A first and second predefined adjustments to website display parameters associated with the selected web accessibility profile are identified and initiated. The initiation of the first change and the second change is configured to transform a presentation of the website to conform with needs of a user having the disability associated with the selected web accessibility profile.

A non-transitory computer readable medium containing instructions that when executed by at least one processor cause the at least one processor to perform operations for enabling users of a website to alter presentation of the website to address differing disabilities, the operations comprising:
- executing accessibility code included in website code, the accessibility code being configured to retrieve, from a server, data associated with an accessibility graphical user interface (GUI) and to cause a display of the accessibility GUI in conjunction with a display of the website, wherein the accessibility GUI includes a plurality of graphical elements each respectively addressing one of the differing disabilities;
- receiving input via the accessibility GUI, the input being indicative of a selection from the plurality of graphical elements of a specific graphical element reflective of a specific disability;
- accessing a first predefined adjustment to a first display parameter from a group of website display parameters to address a first aspect of the specific disability;
- accessing a second predefined adjustment to a second website display parameter from the group of the display parameters to address a second aspect of the specific disability;
- and
- in response to the selection of the specific graphical element, initiating the accessed first predefined adjustment and the accessed second predefined adjustment to alter a presentation of the website from a default website presentation to a transformed presentation configured to accommodate needs of individuals with the specific disability.

- receiving input via the accessibility GUI, the input being indicative of a selection from the plurality of graphical elements of a specific graphical element reflective of a specific disability;
- accessing a first predefined adjustment to a first display parameter from a group of website display parameters to address a first aspect of the specific disability;
- accessing a second predefined adjustment to a second website display parameter from the group of the display parameters to address a second aspect of the specific disability;
- and
- in response to the selection of the specific graphical element, initiating the accessed first predefined adjustment and the accessed second predefined adjustment to alter a presentation of the website from a default website presentation to a transformed presentation configured to accommodate needs of individuals with the specific disability.
- receiving input via the accessibility GUI indicative of a selection of a specific graphical element from the plurality of graphical elements, the specific graphical element reflective of a specific disability;
- identifying a first predefined adjustment to a first display parameter from a group of display parameters of the website to address a first aspect of the specific disability;
- identifying a second predefined adjustment to a second display parameter from the group of the display parameters of the website to address a second aspect of the specific disability;
- and
- in response to the selection of the specific graphical element, initiating the first predefined adjustment and the second predefined adjustment to transform a presentation of the website from a default website presentation to a transformed presentation that accommodates needs of individuals with the specific disability.
