Accessibility Statement

Introduction

Today, the Internet serves as the largest repository of information for all users, particularly for users with disabilities. As such, we place great importance on providing equal access to information on the website for people with disabilities and ensuring a better browsing experience.

We strive to ensure that digital services are accessible to people with disabilities. Significant resources have been invested to make the website as usable as possible for people with disabilities, based on the belief that everyone has the right to live with equality, dignity, comfort, and independence.

This website’s accessibility has been implemented by the web accessibility company “Nagesh B’Click.”

The website complies, as much as possible, with the Israeli Equal Rights for Persons with Disabilities Regulations (Accessibility Adjustments for Services), 2013. Accessibility adjustments were made according to the Israeli Standard (SI 5568) for accessible web content at AA level and the international WCAG 2.0 guidelines.

The site provides a semantic structure for assistive technologies and supports standard keyboard navigation. For optimal screen reader experience, we recommend using the latest version of NVDA. Responsibility for website use and content lies with the site owners and/or their representatives, subject to the software terms of use and the company’s privacy policy.

The software enables compliance with WCAG 2.1 accessibility guidelines at AA level. The software is subject to the manufacturer’s terms of use and privacy policy, as well as the website owner’s privacy policy.
