That could mean that they pay close attention and then decide that they
don't like them and don't implement them...

Perhaps you should ask, bluntly:

  "Does the web interface generated by your product comply with WAI A,
  Double-A or Triple-A?"

And also since they no doubt have some kind of interface for generating
web content does this interface comply with the [1] ATAG?

I suspect that the answer will be that none of the guidelines are
complied with...
