Accessibility statement

Techeles Israel is an independent information service. We work to improve access to guides and services for people with visual, motor, hearing or reading disabilities.

Accessibility update: 21 October 2026

Our approach

Our work targets applicable Israeli accessibility requirements, Israeli Standard 5568 at level AA, and improvements based on WCAG 2.2 AA. This statement is not a professional certification or a claim that full conformance with every criterion has been verified.

  • Use Tab and Shift+Tab to move between controls, Enter to follow links, and Enter or Space to activate buttons.
  • The accessibility button at the bottom right opens text size, high contrast, link highlighting and reduced motion options. Escape closes the dialog.

Testing and known limitations

Code, keyboard, display and automated checks were performed in a Chromium test environment. A professional accessibility survey and user testing with NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver and TalkBack on physical devices have not been completed. Official source links may lead to websites or documents outside our control. You can request assistance or an alternative way to receive information if a page or process is inaccessible.
