Accessibility statement
We want the site to be usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. This statement describes what was built, what was actually tested and how, and how to contact us if you run into a problem.
Conformance level
The site was built to the requirements of the Israeli Equal Rights for Persons with Disabilities (Service Accessibility Adjustments) Regulations, 2013, and the Israeli standard IS 5568 "Guidelines for web content accessibility" at level AA. Our target is WCAG 2.2 level AA.
What is built in
- A "skip to content" link at the top of every page and standard landmarks (header, navigation, main content, footer).
- Full keyboard navigation with a visible focus indicator on every control.
- Level AA text contrast in light and dark mode, and a manual switch between the modes.
- Labels for every field, status messages announced to screen readers (aria-live), and buttons with clear names.
- Every chart has a title, a text description and an alternative data table ("Show the data as a table"). Line charts can also be stepped through with the keyboard.
- Information is never conveyed by color alone: the direction of change is also an arrow and words, and the rumor-check verdict is also an icon and a word.
- The operating system's "reduce motion" setting is respected.
- Layout adapted to narrow screens (from 360 pixels) without horizontal scrolling.
- Hebrew, English and Russian, each at its own address and with the correct text direction. The privacy policy and this statement are available in Hebrew and English.
- No popups. When the browser language differs from the page language, one line under the header offers the page in that language, and it can be closed. The only outside script is Cloudflare's anonymous, cookieless visit counter, which changes nothing on the page.
What was tested, how and when
The latest tests were run on 12 November 2026 on the development version of the site, in Chrome on a Windows 11 PC.

Not tested yet
- Manual testing with screen readers (NVDA, TalkBack, VoiceOver) has not been done yet. The semantic structure and chart descriptions were written to support them, but we do not claim what was not tested.
- Testing on iOS devices has not been done yet.
