2. Accessibility Standards

This website strives to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at the AA level, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines provide a framework for making web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological disabilities.

We also strive to comply with the Israeli Equal Rights for Persons with Disabilities Law (1998) and the Israeli Standard SI 5568 regarding web content accessibility.

  • Heading Hierarchy: Logical heading structure (h1-h6) for easy navigation with screen readers;
  • ARIA Landmarks: ARIA roles and labels to identify page regions and interactive elements for assistive technology;
