We place great importance on providing equal service to all citizens and continually improving accessibility for people with disabilities.
We invest considerable resources in making our website and digital assets accessible in order to make our services more accessible and inclusive for individuals with disabilities.
Approximately 20% of the population in Israel are people with disabilities who rely on digital accessibility to consume general information and services.
The accessibility of the Alpaca Breeding Farm website is intended to make it more available, user-friendly, and convenient for people with unique needs — including those with motor limitations, cognitive impairments, low vision, blindness or color blindness, hearing impairments, and older adults.
Website accessibility has been implemented by the web accessibility company Vee – Website Accessibility.
Accessibility Level – AA
Vee has optimized the website for accessibility on common browsers and mobile devices when possible, and conducted testing using screen readers such as JAWS and NVDA.
The website complies with the requirements of the Israeli Equal Rights for People with Disabilities Regulations, 5568-2013, at AA level, and follows the recommendations of the WCAG 2.2 guidelines issued by the W3C.

An accessibility icon is displayed on the website (typically along the site borders). Clicking the icon opens the accessibility menu. After selecting a function from the menu, please allow time for the page to refresh and the requested changes to take effect.
To cancel a feature, click on the same function again. At any time, you may reset all accessibility settings.
The software operates on the following popular browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Opera (according to manufacturer support). It is recommended to browse in Chrome when using accessibility mode.
