Issue Summary
Color contrast for "←"(Previous...) and "→"(Next...) standard text is insufficient.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open the "Home" page.
- Navigate to the header section.
- Navigate to the "Help" > "Jira Credits" buttons and activate them > a modal appears.
- Navigate to the mentioned text.
- Use any color contrast testing tool to check the color contrast.
- Observe that the color contrast between the standard text and the background color is insufficient.
Screenshot

Actual Results
The "←"(Previous...) and "→"(Next...) text present in the "Jira Credits 🌍" modal dialog that becomes available on activating the "Help" and "Jira Credits" buttons in the header section with #A39362 foreground color has an insufficient color contrast ratio of 2.5:1 with FFE8A8 background color.
Foreground: #A39362
Background: #FFE8A8
Color Contrast ratio: 2.5:1
This will make it difficult for people with low vision and color blindness to read standard text elements that have insufficient contrast.
Expected Results
The contrast ratio between foreground text and background for the standard text should be sufficient.
On all pages, ensure that each foreground/background color combination presents a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 for standard text.
Workaround
Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available.
