The hex color #30389A, also known as Governor Bay, presents some accessibility challenges, particularly concerning color contrast. When used as a background color, it's essential to pair it with a light text color to ensure sufficient contrast for readability. According to WCAG guidelines, the contrast ratio between text and background should be at least 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text.

Consideration should also be given to users with visual impairments; relying solely on color to convey information should be avoided. Instead, incorporate text labels, icons, or patterns to enhance usability for all users. Furthermore, evaluate the color's impact on users with color blindness by simulating different types of color vision deficiencies. This can help identify potential issues and ensure that information is accessible to everyone, regardless of their visual abilities. Careful planning and testing are crucial when incorporating #30389A into a design to ensure it meets accessibility standards.
