you can add to your root folder of zencart installation and link via information box or alternative you can install additional info pages plugin and you be able to add page directly via zen-cart admin panel.

Re: Accessibility Statement - where and how to place?

To keep things simple I decided to add a link to the report in the "information" sidebox. I made it the first item in that sidebox. The report itself was uploaded to the website. For those interested these were the files added or changed:

include/extra_datafiles/website_access_filenames.php (copied and modified a similar file in that folder)
include/filename.php
include/languages/english.php
include/languages/english/classic/website_access.php (copied and modified a similar file in that folder)
include/languages/english/extra_definitions/website_access.php (copied and modified a similar file in that folder)
include/modules/pages/website_access/header_php.php (copied and modified a similar folder & file in that folder)
include/modules/sideboxes/information.php
include/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_website_access_default.php (copied and modified a similar file in that folder)
include/templates/template_default/tpl_website_access_default.php (copied and modified a similar file in that folder)
include/languages/english/website_access.php (copied and modified a similar file in that folder)
include/languages/english/html_includes/define_website_access.php
include/languages/english/html_includes/responsive_classic/define_website_access.php

The code for the define_website_access.php is:

<h1>To access our current report click on:<BR><BR> <font color=#000000> <a href="http://www.website name.com/report name.html">Website Name Accessibility Report </font></H1>

You could create an EZ-Page and specify its link to be displayed in your header or footer or a sidebox.
