If a document shows "Exemption Void" status, it means a Legacy Archive (pre-deadline) was modified after being archived. The ADA accessibility exemption has been permanently voided.
Key points:
- The record is preserved as compliance documentation that an ADA exemption violation occurred
- The file can be archived again, but any new entry will automatically be classified as General Archive regardless of the current date
- Files/URLs with voided exemptions permanently lose Legacy Archive eligibility
- The original voided record remains in the system for audit trail purposes
How this happens:
- A file's checksum changed after archiving (file was modified or replaced)
- A manually archived page's content was edited and saved
What to do:
- Investigate why the modification occurred
- If the content needs to remain accessible, remediate it to meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards
- If needed, create a new archive entry (will be General Archive)
