There are a number of accessibility considerations of which implementors

should be aware when processing data described in this specification.

As with any implementation of web standards or protocols, ignoring
2566

accessibility issues will make this information unusable to a large

guidelines and standards such as [[WCAG21]] to ensure that all people,

important when establishing systems that utilize cryptography and encryption,
