The hex color #26329E, also known as Torea Bay, presents some accessibility challenges, particularly for users with visual impairments. Its relatively low luminance value of approximately 6% means that text rendered in this color on a white background may not meet WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) standards for contrast ratio. A contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for normal text and 3:1 for large text. Therefore, it's crucial to pair this color with a very light color for text or user interface elements to ensure readability. Using tools to check color contrast is highly advisable. When using #26329E for interactive elements, consider providing additional cues beyond color alone, such as text labels or icons, to ensure usability for all users. Also, avoid using this color as the sole indicator for important information or actions.
