Accessibility Statement

Website accessibility statement
We invest considerable effort in making our website accessible and place the highest importance on providing equal service to all visitors, including people with disabilities. According to Israel’s Central Bureau of Statistics, more than 1,600,000 people in Israel live with varying degrees of disability. Making our website accessible to people with disabilities is a priority for our organization. An accessible website is more convenient and easier to use.

Website accessibility helps:
People with visual impairments, including blindness, low vision and color vision deficiencies, as well as people who wear glasses.
People with physical disabilities, including limited hand mobility that makes using a mouse difficult.
People with other difficulties, such as reading or comprehension difficulties and learning disabilities.
Online information plays an increasingly important role in every aspect of life. An accessible website helps people with disabilities, as well as other visitors, browse and access information and services.

The website’s accessibility work follows Israeli Standard 5568 and the international W3C accessibility guidelines at Level AA.
