The color #1d32c9, a deep shade of blue, presents some accessibility challenges, particularly when used as a foreground color on a white background. Its luminance is relatively low, which can make it difficult for individuals with visual impairments to distinguish text or elements using this color. A contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for normal text and 3:1 for large text (14pt bold or 18pt regular) to meet WCAG AA standards. Therefore, when using #1d32c9, it's crucial to pair it with a light background or use a lighter shade of blue to ensure readability.

Using a darker shade of blue or a lighter background color would enhance accessibility.
