Action Performed:
Prerequisites:
- Go to Account.
- Select Security.
- Choose Report suspicious activity.
- Measure the contrast ratio of the white text on the red button 'Report suspicious activity.'
Other Occurrences:
- On Security - Close Account: the button 'Close account'
- On Report Details - Delete: the button 'Delete'
- On Report - This request is on hold: the text 'hold'
Expected Result:
The contrast ratio of the text against the background should be at least 4.50:1 for small text and 3.00:1 for large text (14pt bold or 18 pt+).
Actual Result:
The white text (#FAFBFD) on the red button background (#F3572F) gives a contrast ratio of 3.26:1
Area issue was found in:
Security
Failed WCAG checkpoints
WCAG 1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum)
https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG22/Understanding/contrast-minimum
User impact:
People with low vision often have difficulty reading text that does not contrast with its background. This can be exacerbated if the person has a color vision deficiency that lowers the contrast even further. Providing a minimum luminance contrast ratio between the text and its background can make the text more readable even if the person does not see the full range of colors. It also works for the rare individuals who see no color.
Suggested resolution:
Use a darker red color for the background to meet a contrast ratio of at least 4.50:1.
