The color #9F96D0, also known as Blue Bell, presents moderate accessibility challenges. Its contrast ratio against pure white is approximately 2.4:1, which falls significantly short of the WCAG's recommended minimum of 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text. Consequently, using this color for text on a white background is not advisable, especially for users with visual impairments.

Pairing it with darker shades can improve its legibility, but careful evaluation is crucial to ensure compliance with accessibility standards and provide an inclusive user experience.
