When used as a background color, it's crucial to ensure that any text or foreground elements layered on top have sufficient contrast to meet WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) standards. A contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for normal text and 3:1 for large text. Tools like WebAIM's Contrast Checker can be used to verify contrast ratios.

Careful consideration of color combinations is essential to avoid excluding users with visual impairments. It is generally not recommended to use this color for interactive elements like buttons or links without careful evaluation of accessibility.
