Accessibility Statement
Introduction and Our Mission
We, Otzar HaYam Cosmetics, believe that accessibility is not just a technical requirement, but a fundamental right of every person. We strive to make our website accessible and convenient for all users, regardless of their abilities, and are working hard to ensure the best user experience for every visitor.
This document details our efforts to ensure the website's accessibility, its compliance with standards, and the ways you can contact us if you encounter any issues.
Compliance Status
Our website is developed and constantly improved in accordance with Israeli Standard SI 5568, Level AA. This standard is based on the international guidelines of WCAG 2.0 (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0) and is mandatory for every public website in Israel.
We are working to ensure that every aspect of our website, from navigation to content, complies with these strict standards.
How We Ensure Accessibility
We have implemented a number of functions and technologies to ensure maximum accessibility:
-
Keyboard Navigation: The entire website can be fully used and navigated using only the keyboard, with no mouse required.
-
Screen Reader Compatibility: We use semantic HTML tags and alternative descriptions for images (alt-text), which allows people with visual impairments to effectively use screen reader software.
-
Visual Clarity: The colors, fonts, and contrast on the site have been selected to ensure good readability for people with visual impairments or color blindness. We avoid flashing content and use a responsive design that works well on all devices.
-
Clear Content: The text on the site is written in simple and clear language. We use headings and lists to make the information easy to read and understand.
Known Issues and Future Plans
Despite all our efforts, some parts of the site may still have limited accessibility, as the site is constantly being updated. We are committed to identifying and fixing any issues that are discovered as soon as possible, to ensure full access for everyone.
We regularly conduct internal accessibility checks and collaborate with experts to ensure that we comply with all up-to-date standards.
