# V2 DEI And Accessibility Consultancy

V2 contracts DEI and accessibility partners for hiring, content review,
community management, feature design, verification, and player engagement.

## DEI Consultancy

The DEI consultancy reviews hiring practices, interview loops, promotion
criteria, compensation-band drift, content representation, community-management
policy, incident patterns, and manager training. Findings go to the studio GM,
HR/people partner, production director, and independent ombudsperson.

## Accessibility Consultancy

The accessibility consultancy, such as AbleGamers or a similar specialist,
reviews accessibility feature design, control hardware support, UI readability,
captioning, haptics alternatives, motor-access options, photosensitivity risk,
and community feedback intake. Verification evidence is attached to release
gates for affected features.

## Per-Feature Gate

Every release gate includes a DEI/accessibility review field. A feature cannot
ship if it changes representation, community policy, accessibility behavior,
minor safety, player reporting, onboarding, UI readability, or store disclosure
without recording the consultancy outcome or an approved not-applicable reason.

## Community Engagement

Consultants participate in structured community listening sessions for major
accessibility and representation changes. Player feedback is summarized without
exposing private health, identity, or account details.
