Accessibility statement

Last updated 19 September 2026.

The Hebrew version of this statement is the binding one.

Our commitment

We treat this site as a service that has to be available to everyone, including people with disabilities. It is built so that it can be operated with a keyboard alone, read with a screen reader, and enlarged. When something turns out not to work, we fix it.

The standard the site was tested against

The site was tested against Israeli Standard 5568 at conformance level AA, as required by the Equal Rights for Persons with Disabilities Regulations (Accessibility Adjustments to a Service), 2013.

What the site provides

The whole site can be operated with a keyboard alone. A "Skip to main content" link opens on the first Tab of every page, and the focus indicator is visible in both display modes.

An "Accessibility options" button in the corner of the screen opens a preferences panel:

  • High contrast: black ground, white text and a single accent colour.
  • Larger and smaller text, in four steps.
  • A readable font, from the fonts installed on your computer.
  • Highlighted headings and highlighted links.
  • Stop animations.
  • Strong keyboard focus.
  • Reset every preference.

Those preferences are stored in your browser only and are never sent to us. Escape or a click outside closes the panel, and the focus returns to the button that opened it.

Beyond the panel: the site has a light and a dark display mode; every text size is set in relative units, so raising the default font size in your browser settings changes the site too; every image carries alternative text; a link inside a paragraph is underlined rather than marked by colour alone; each page has one main heading and a landmark structure; the page language and writing direction are declared in the markup; the site honours the reduced-motion setting of your operating system, and no animation on it runs for more than five seconds.

The site has no forms and no documents to download.

Known accessibility limits

As of the date of this update we know of no accessibility limits on the site: the most recent audit found no open defect on any page, in either display mode and in both languages.

What was not tested, so the picture is complete: the site was not tested with a live screen reader, and not reviewed by a certified accessibility expert. The site's admin interface is not open to the public and is not part of the service this statement covers. If you meet something that does not work for you, that is exactly what we want to hear.
