It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Backyard Designer Farms is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA.

Images of text are only used for decorative purposes. Re-authentication after a session expires does not cause loss of data. Some videos have sign language interpretation.
