Accessibility Statement in Plain Language
Accessibility Statement in Easy-to-Read Language
Some people have trouble reading websites.
For example, people with learning disabilities.
That’s why:
Anyone who creates a website
should ensure it is accessible.
This is stipulated in several laws.
We are subject to this law:
Accessibility Enhancement Act (BFSG)
We strive to comply with the law.
Some rules are still not being followed .
For example:
- Sometimes there is text on images.
The text color is sometimes hard to make out.
This makes it difficult for some people to read the text. - There may be issues with some PDF documents.
- Videos do not have captions .
People who are hard of hearing or deaf need captions. - Some people use the keyboard instead of the mouse.
For example, people who are blind.
They cannot access some of the information on our website using the keyboard.
