Accessibility Statement
Last updated as per 2026, August 10th
S.H.S. is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying relevant accessibility standards.
Measures to support accessibility
This website has been built on the Wix platform and is designed to comply with the Israeli Standard (IS) 5568 "Guidelines for Internet Content Accessibility" at Conformance Level AA. This standard aligns directly with the international Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) Level AA.
As a presentation and informational website, we have optimized our digital presence around the following core practices:
-
Text & Layout: All font sizes, contrast ratios, and layouts have been configured to support readability and avoid visual barriers.
-
Media & Design: Our website consists strictly of informational text and decorative images. All non-text visual elements have been configured as decorative, allowing screen readers to bypass them seamlessly for an optimal reading experience. Any and all non-decorative media elements (images, audio and videos) incorporated in the future, shall be supported with proper informative alternate text and ensure forms include clear labels, as per above mentioned (IS) 5568 Standard.
-
Use clear structure and headings to support screen readers and smooth keyboard and other assistive technology navigation.
-
Provide sufficient color contrast where possible and avoid relying on color alone to convey information.
-
Regularly review pages and content as the site evolves.
