To ensure accessibility, it's crucial to pair #0A2424 with light colors, such as shades of white or very light gray, for text. When using it as a background, opt for very light foreground colors. Tools like contrast checkers can help verify compliance with accessibility standards. Using larger font sizes or adding text shadows/outlines can also improve readability.
