Accessibility notes

Ensure high contrast for text on backgrounds; use white or very light gray on #4A2C55, #673D76, and #865293.
#D29ED8 should only be used for large text or decorative elements when placed on darker purples due to its lightness.
Avoid pairing #AD75BF with #D29ED8 for text, as contrast will be insufficient for readability, especially for small text.
Verify all interactive elements meet WCAG AA contrast requirements against their surrounding backgrounds.
