The hex color #2462B2, also known as Fun Blue, presents some accessibility considerations, particularly for text and interactive elements. With a moderate luminance, it may not provide sufficient contrast against very light backgrounds like pure white (#FFFFFF). When using this color for text, ensure a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 against the background, as recommended by WCAG guidelines, to accommodate users with visual impairments. Darker text colors, such as black or very dark grays, would generally work well. For larger text (14pt bold or 18pt regular), a contrast ratio of 3:1 is acceptable. Consider using tools to check contrast ratios to ensure compliance. Additionally, avoid using this color as the sole indicator of functionality, such as in links or buttons. Always provide supplementary cues like underlines or labels to ensure inclusivity for all users.
