We put a man on the moon in the 1960's ... surely we can make information technology fully accessible to people with disabilities.  It can be done ... it must be done ... it will be done!

   Hi Lisa
  
 Presumably your comment, which I agree with, refers to these definitions in general? 
  
 Jim’s use of brackets instead of commas in a few places doesn’t change the definitions, it just makes them easier to read. Your comment applies to the originally proposed definitions and Jim’s improved versions.
  
 Best regards
  
 Mike
 PS There seems to be (at least) two different ways to refer to ,, () and []. In my (UK) understanding both the latter two are brackets (round and square) and that whether you use commas or brackets you are putting the text in between in parenthesis. It seems that in other (US?) understandings () are referred to as parentheses. Doing a quick Google search leads to much confusion on these namings! My UK-tuned brain had to read all of text behind  GrammarBook.com’s statement “Parentheses and brackets must never be used interchangeably” to have any clue what they were on about!!

    Hi All,
  
 How do these seem? Mostly the use of parenthesis to help with the “comma overload” plus an extension on the loss of rights and freedoms to cover people the user is acting on behalf of
  
 Important information:
 Information the user may need to complete any action or task (including offline tasks); or information related to safety, risk, privacy, health or opportunity.
  
 Critical service:
 A service that is needed to prevent  significant harm,  loss (such as significant financial loss), illness or injury to the user, a deterioration in the condition of a patient or the effective loss of rights or freedoms of the user or someone the user is acting on the behalf of.

  Hi folks
 Can we tighten up the wording at all for the following
  
  
  important information
  information the user may need to complete any action or task including an offline task, or related to safety, risks, privacy, health or opportunities
  
 critical service
 service that is needed to prevent significant harm, risk or loss such as: significant financial loss, illness, injury or deterioration in a patient's condition or effective loss of rights or freedoms
  
  All the best
