Colours and fonts
You must make sure that the contrast ratio of text and interactive elements in your service meets level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1).
Always use a sans serif font like Arial and minimum size of 12. These are plain fonts which screen readers can easily read.
Text should be black on a white background.
Don’t use coloured fonts unless it is a hyperlink then it will be set to blue and underlined.
