Review contrast of AI identity information
Check the rendered notice text and interactive controls in each supported theme and state. Includes a free implementation worksheet.
Short answer
Check the rendered notice text and interactive controls in each supported theme and state. Include overlays and disabled-looking styling that may make essential identity information difficult to perceive.

When to use this guide
A dark theme renders the AI label in low-contrast gray over a translucent chat header.
This is a fictional implementation scenario. The procedure below is Article 50 Hub's suggested working method, not a prescribed legal form, a customer result or a claim that every step is an additional statutory requirement.
Review procedure
-
Identify the foreground and effective background in the actual rendered state.
-
Measure relevant text and control contrast with an appropriate tool.
-
Test light, dark, hover and overlay states that change those colors.
-
Record the applicable criterion and verify corrected colors in the deployed component.
What the example review finds
-
Transparency changes the effective background color.
-
The dark-theme label uses a different token from the reviewed light theme.
Keep these example observations separate from your own results. An unknown or untested state should stay open until the relevant evidence has been inspected.

Criterion review
Use the downloadable blank worksheet linked on this page to connect the observed behavior with the deployed system. Add a reviewer, date, evidence reference, unresolved questions and a next action. The worksheet is editable locally and does not upload your records to Article 50 Hub.
Completion and handoff
Close the task only for the scope actually reviewed. Preserve the result that another authorized reviewer can reproduce, identify the owner of remaining work, and record a retest when the implementation changes. A completed worksheet is not a substitute for the underlying evidence.
Decision boundary
Contrast checks do not establish complete accessibility or determine whether the notice wording is adequate.
The official references below provide legal or technical context. Resolve applicability and exception questions with the responsible qualified reviewer; use the product's tools to organize implementation work within that assessment.
