Non-accessible content:

Despite our efforts to make the Website accessible, some content may currently not fully meet the requirements for digital accessibility.

This applies in particular to:

  • PDFs may contain elements (e.g., images, signature fields) that cannot be accessed in an accessible manner.
  • In some cases, images do not have alternative text (ALT text).
  • Subtitles and/or alternative texts are not yet consistently available for videos.
  • Hover effects are not clearly recognisable in some places.
  • In some cases, the contrast between text and background images is too low.
  • In some places, ARIA labels are missing to make HTML attributes readable for screen readers.

The implementation of further measures is coordinated internally and will be advanced step by step as capacity allows. We are committed to continuously improving accessibility and thank you for your understanding.
