Accessibility statement

The standard we worked to

The site is built to Regulation 35 of the Equal Rights for Persons with Disabilities (Accessibility Adjustments to a Service) Regulations, 2013, and works toward Israeli Standard 5568 at level AA, which is based on WCAG 2.0. We do not claim full AA conformance: the gaps listed below include level A failures, so stating that the site meets AA would not be accurate. Our turnover is below the threshold at which these adjustments become mandatory, so we are not currently obliged to make them. We have chosen to make them and to publish a statement anyway. The assessment was carried out by us, not by an accredited third party, and no formal accessibility audit has been performed.

What has been done

• Text direction for each language is decided on the server, not corrected in the browser. Hebrew and Arabic are served right-to-left from the first byte, so a screen reader gets the right direction and language without guessing.
• The player draws its own controls, but the progress and volume controls are real browser range inputs rather than drag areas — so they are keyboard-operable and announced by a screen reader by default. Position is read out as a time rather than a percentage, every control carries a label, and subtitles are chosen from inside the player, from a menu that closes on Escape and returns focus to the button that opened it.
• Every focusable element gets a visible focus indicator — an accent-coloured ring, including on the sign-in and sign-up fields.
• Page headings are properly nested and can be navigated by structure.
• Email and password fields are marked left-to-right so an address or password is never read in reverse.
• Animation and transitions stop for anyone whose system asks for reduced motion. The hero does not rotate on its own for them.
• Subtitle selection is available from the player and from the film's page.
• We did not install a third-party accessibility overlay. One is not required by the regulations, and it does not address what matters in a video service — keyboard navigation in the player, subtitle controls, and correct focus order.

What is not accessible yet

These are known gaps. We would rather write them down than leave an impression that everything is finished.

• There is no audio description. We will supply audio description for a particular title on request, where the rights and materials allow.
• The subtitles we carry are translation subtitles. They do not identify speakers or describe non-speech audio, so they are not captions in the sense the standard means.
• Advertising shown on the site is supplied by a third party, and we do not control the accessibility of the advertisement itself.
• During an ad break the player controls sit behind the advertisement layer, and we do not control the controls it presents instead. We have not tested full keyboard navigation during a break.
