Our commitment

rotem-e.com is the personal portfolio and knowledge base of Rotem E, a product designer. This site should be usable by everyone, including people who browse with a keyboard only, with a screen reader, at high zoom, or with motion sensitivity. Accessibility is treated as part of the design work, not as an add-on.

The standard we follow

The site is built to Israeli Standard 5568 (part 1) at level AA, which adopts the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). This is the technical standard named by Regulation 35 of the Equal Rights for Persons with Disabilities (Service Accessibility Adjustments) Regulations, 2013.

What was done

An accessibility review of the whole site was carried out on July 25, 2026, and the following were implemented and verified in a browser:

• Every control on the site can be reached and operated with a keyboard alone.
• A single, clearly visible focus indicator marks whichever element the keyboard is on. It is drawn as a blue ring inside a white one, so it stays visible on the site's white pages and on its deep-blue sections alike.
• Page structure is marked up for screen readers: one main heading per page, headings in order, and a marked-up main content region on every page. Pages that carry the site menu also mark up their header, navigation and footer regions.
• Images carry text alternatives. Decorative artwork is explicitly marked as decorative so screen readers skip it instead of reading out filenames, and the content editor now has a field for describing every picture that carries meaning.
• Animations respect the operating system's “reduce motion” setting: with it on, entrance and background animations do not play.
• Text colour contrast was measured against the site's backgrounds and meets the standard.
• Text can be enlarged to 200% and the page reflows without losing content or function.
• The site works at narrow widths, down to a 320-pixel-wide screen.
• Zoom is never blocked, on any device.

Browsers and assistive technology

The site is built for current versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, on desktop and mobile, and is intended to work with the screen readers that ship with those systems. Very old browsers may not present it correctly.
