Its low luminance value results in a low contrast ratio against a standard white background. This can make text difficult to read for users with visual impairments. To ensure accessibility, it's crucial to use this color with lighter backgrounds that significantly increase the contrast ratio to meet WCAG guidelines. Consider using color contrast checking tools to verify compliance.

Providing alternative cues, such as text labels or icons, can greatly enhance accessibility for all users.
