Declaration on Accessibility

Accessibility

We endeavour to comply as far as possible with the guidelines of the Barrier-free Information Technology Regulation (Barrierefreie Informationstechnik-Verordnung – BITV). Our review of compliance with these guidelines is based on an independent BITV test conducted in May 2021. We are working to remove the barriers that are still in place.

State of compliance with requirements

Parts of this website do not meet the accessibility requirements set out in Section 3(1) to (3) and Section 4 of the Barrier-free Information Technology Regulation (BITV 2.0).

The following content on the website www.euro20plus.de is not fully accessible for the reasons outlined below.

  • At present, alternative text for older images and graphical control elements is sometimes either missing or incorrect. This content is being edited over time. We endeavour to make newly posted images and graphics accessible.
  • HTML elements have sometimes been misused for visual presentation of text.
  • The contrast ratio of some texts, graphical control elements and focus highlighting does not meet the required minimum.
  • Some elements do not (fully) support keyboard usability.
  • The video playing in the background on the main page cannot be paused or stopped, nor does it end automatically after five seconds.
  • (Some) videos do not come with captions. We endeavour to add captions to newly posted videos as soon as possible after release.
