Accessibility Statement
We build for infrastructure that everyone uses and nobody chooses. A site that some people cannot read would contradict the whole point of us. This statement says what we have done, what we know is imperfect, and how to tell us when we have got it wrong.
1 · Our commitment
72 Nation is committed to making this site usable by as many people as possible, regardless of disability, assistive technology or device. We treat accessibility as a requirement of the work rather than a compliance exercise, and we would rather be told about a barrier than not know about it.
2 · Standard we work to
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA, and to meet the requirements of Israeli Standard SI 5568 and the Equal Rights for Persons with Disabilities (Accessibility Adjustments to Service) Regulations, 5773-2013.
Current status: partially conformant. Partially conformant means most of the site meets the standard and some content does not yet. Where we know of a gap, it is listed below rather than left unstated.
3 · What we have done
- Text and background colors across the site are chosen to meet or exceed the AA contrast ratio, including gold on the dark ground and on light stock.
- The site is fully keyboard operable, in a logical order, with a visible focus indicator on every interactive element.
- Headings are used in a real hierarchy so a screen-reader user can navigate by structure rather than by scrolling.
- Every image conveying meaning carries a text alternative; images that are purely decorative are hidden from assistive technology.
- Layout reflows to any viewport down to 320px without horizontal scrolling or loss of content, and stays usable at 200% text zoom.
- Buttons, navigation links, form controls and every other standalone interactive target are at least 44 by 44 pixels. Links that sit inside a sentence of running text take the size of that text, which WCAG 2.2 permits for inline targets; where such a link is the only way to reach something, the same destination is also offered as a full-size control.
- No text anywhere on the site is smaller than 11.5 pixels, including labels, footnotes and the chips in these legal documents.
- Nothing on the site flashes, auto-plays audio, or moves without the visitor initiating it. The ambient motion in the page header is decorative, low-contrast, and stops entirely when the operating system requests reduced motion — the code behind it is not even downloaded in that case.
- Form fields have persistent visible labels, not placeholder-only labels, and errors are described in text rather than by color alone.
- The site does not depend on color alone to convey any information.
- Before any change reaches this site, every page is checked automatically at eleven viewport widths from 320 to 2560 pixels for horizontal overflow, undersized text, undersized targets, missing image alternatives and broken heading order. A failure blocks the release.
4 · Known limitations
We would rather publish these than let you discover them:
- The ambient graphic in the page header is rendered on a canvas and is not exposed to assistive technology. It is decorative and carries no information, and no content is available only through it.
- This site is published in English only. A Hebrew version is intended but is not available yet. If you would find the content easier in Hebrew, write to us and we will answer your question in Hebrew.
- Our conformance review is our own. We have not yet commissioned an audit by an external accessibility specialist, and we will say so here until we have.
- If we ever publish a document for download, or embed content from a third party, it may not meet the same standard as the site itself. Where that happens we will name it in this list and offer you the content another way in the meantime.
5 · Assistive technology we test with
We test with keyboard-only navigation, with the current versions of NVDA and VoiceOver, at 200% zoom, and in high-contrast and reduced-motion modes, on current versions of Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge. Testing combines automated checks with manual review, because automated checks alone do not find the barriers that matter most.
6 · Tell us about a barrier
If any part of this site is difficult or impossible for you to use, tell us. Describe the page and what happened; you do not need to know why it failed or use any particular terminology. A report in your own words is enough, and it is worth more to us than a technical one.
7 · If we do not resolve it
If you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact the Commission for Equal Rights of Persons with Disabilities at the Israeli Ministry of Justice. We would prefer to fix it ourselves first, and we will not treat a complaint as an adversarial act.
8 · Review
This statement was prepared on 24 August 2026 following a review of the site against WCAG 2.2 AA, combining automated checks across every page and viewport with manual keyboard and screen-reader testing. We review it whenever the site changes materially, and at least once a year. It is linked from the footer of every page of this site.
