W3C provides conformance logos for Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2. Content providers can use these logos on their sites to indicate a claim of conformance to a specified conformance level of WCAG.

Note that these logos do not represent review or validation of conformance by W3C and/or WAI.

Conformance to WCAG 2 is defined in the Conformance section of WCAG. Here is the excerpt that defines the conformance levels:

  • For Level A conformance (the minimum level of conformance), the Web page satisfies all the Level A Success Criteria, or a conforming alternate version is provided.
  • For Level AA conformance, the Web page satisfies all the Level A and Level AA Success Criteria, or a Level AA conforming alternate version is provided.
  • For Level AAA conformance, the Web page satisfies all the Level A, Level AA and Level AAA Success Criteria, or a Level AAA conforming alternate version is provided.

Please see WCAG 2 Conformance section for more information on what is required in a conformance claim.
