ADA Title III

ADA Title III bans disability discrimination by ‘places of public accommodation’ — and US courts have extended that to websites and apps for years. There's no DOJ rulebook for private sites and no official certification, so plaintiffs sue directly: 3,117 federal website lawsuits in 2025, up 27% year over year, with e-commerce the single most-targeted sector. Courts and demand letters apply WCAG 2.1/2.2 AA as the benchmark. Settlements run a median around $18,500 plus legal fees — and serial filers come back. What protects you isn't a widget; it's documented, dated proof you found your issues and are fixing them.
