Due to its composition, this hex color appears very dark, and care must be taken to ensure sufficient contrast when using it in designs, especially for text or interactive elements.

The color #03282B, a very dark shade of cyan, presents significant accessibility challenges, primarily due to its extremely low luminance. When used as text against a white background, it fails all WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) contrast ratio requirements. This means that users with visual impairments, including those with low vision or color blindness, will find it very difficult to read. To improve accessibility, it's crucial to use this color sparingly and only with light backgrounds that provide sufficient contrast. A contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for normal text and 3:1 for large text. When this is not achievable, avoid using this color for essential information. Ensure all interactive elements have appropriate visual cues that do not rely solely on color, and consider offering high-contrast themes. Providing sufficient spacing and sizing text can also help in readability.
