WebMax Accessibility Widget for WCAG, ADA, Section 508 & EAA

This plugin connects your WordPress site to the WebMax accessibility service and loads an accessibility widget on your front end after you connect an account. This is the official WordPress plugin from WebMax (webmax.co). What this plugin does

• Loads the WebMax accessibility widget on your public pages when your account is connected
• Lets you customize widget colors, position, language, statement link, and trigger options
• Syncs those settings with your WebMax account
• Shows plan/subscription status and lets you start checkout on WebMax
• Displays an accessibility statement generated for your site
• Includes a dashboard with plan and usage status, plus an automated check score for your home page (scanned with the widget turned off). Some issues can only be found by a manual review.

External service This plugin is a client for the WebMax accessibility service. Widget CSS and JavaScript ship inside the plugin (public/css/, public/js/) and are not loaded from remote CDNs. The plugin calls WebMax over HTTPS only for account/API operations (service calls):

• API and account: https://webmax.co/api/v1/
• Widget initialization: https://webmax.co/api/initWidget (proxied through this site’s REST route when serving the front-end widget)

A WebMax account is required. Data sent may include your site URL/domain, account email, authentication token, widget customization settings, subscription/billing requests, and (when you run an automated check) scan requests for your site URL. Creating an account, connecting the plugin, saving settings, managing billing, and running automated checks are user-initiated actions from the WordPress admin. The plugin does not add promotional “Powered by” credits or external marketing links on the public site.

Plans and free trial A WebMax account is required to turn on the widget. Paid plans are Starter ($19 a month), Business ($49 a month) and Pro ($99 a month). The Plan & Subscription tab and webmax.co/pricing-plans list what each plan includes. Try it free for 30 days: up to 1,000 page views a month, no card needed, and you're never charged automatically. After activation, go to WebMax → Accessibility Controls, connect your account under Plan & Subscription, then customize the widget.
