Accessibility Statement

This statement was last updated on November 1, 2024.

​

We at VisionTec, a non-profit organization based in Hessen, Germany, are working to make our site VisionTec accessible to people with disabilities.

What web accessibility is

Web accessibility means that our site is designed so that all visitors, regardless of their abilities or disabilities, can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the site. This includes optimizing our site for assistive technologies and ensuring it is usable with a variety of devices and systems.

Accessibility adjustments on this site

We have made several adjustments to this site to ensure compliance with WCAG 2.1 guidelines and have achieved an accessibility level of AA. The following adaptations have been implemented:

  • Accessibility Evaluation Tools: We used the Accessibility Wizard to identify and address potential accessibility issues throughout our website.

  • Language Settings: The primary language of the site has been set to enhance readability for assistive technologies.

  • Content Structure: We organized the content order logically to facilitate easier navigation for users.

  • Heading Structure: Clear heading structures have been established on all pages to improve understanding and navigation.

  • Alternative Text: Descriptive alternative text has been provided for all images to ensure that visually impaired users can comprehend visual content.

  • Color Contrast: We implemented color combinations that meet the required contrast ratios for better visibility and readability.

  • Reduced Motion: We minimized the use of motion effects to assist individuals with vestibular disorders.

  • Media Accessibility: All videos, audio files, and downloadable documents have been made accessible, including captions and transcripts.

Declaration of partial compliance with the standard due to third-party content

Certain elements of our site depend on third-party content that may not fully comply with accessibility standards. Specifically, some pages may contain content from YouTube and Vimeo. The following URLs are affected:

As such, we declare partial compliance with the accessibility standards for these pages.

We also offer assistance services to enhance the experience of visitors with disabilities.
