Specifically:<\/p>\n<h3>Incompatibility with accessibility legislation<\/h3>\n<p>The content listed below does not comply with the relevant legal requirements on accessibility:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alternative text for images and links is available in some cases, but is not consistently descriptive or correctly marked up.<\/li>\n<li>The structure of headings and content is largely correct, but in a few instances there are still minor deviations from semantic standards.<\/li>\n<li>Some animations (e.g. slider transitions or image changes) may be perceived by some users as distracting or disruptive.<\/li>\n<li>Content in plain language is not available, or is only available in part.<\/li>\n<li>Form fields are mostly marked up correctly; however, in a few cases, consistent label assignments are missing.<\/li>\n<li>Error messages in forms are not always clearly identifiable or worded in a way that is fully accessible.<\/li>\n<li>The HTML structure contains a few semantic issues (e.g. undeclared landmarks or unclear ARIA roles).<\/li>\n<li>Overall, the website works well with screen readers, but certain navigation and interaction elements could be improved.<\/li>\n<li>Graphics and visual elements (e.g. infographics) may be perceived as distracting by some users.<\/li>\n<li>The site can largely be operated using a keyboard, but drop-down menus and sliders do not always respond as expected.<\/li>\n<li>Colour contrasts are generally sufficient, but may sometimes be too low in the case of hover effects or text superimposed on other elements (e.g. on images).<\/li>\n<li>Not all information is provided via more than one sensory channel; for example, there are no additional textual explanations for colour-coded labels.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Disproportionate burden<\/h3>\n<p>The following content is not made accessible because this would place a disproportionate burden on us:<\/p>\n<p>To the best of our knowledge, there are no sections on this website for which an exemption on the grounds of disproportionate burden is claimed under Article 5 of Directive (EU) 2016\/2102.<\/p>\n<h3>Accessible alternatives<\/h3>\n<p>For our non-accessible content, we provide the following accessible alternatives:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Elementor Ally plugin for customising contrast, font sizes and visual settings.<\/li>\n<li>A section in Plain Language (\u201eAbout us\u201c) is available or in the final stages of implementation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Evaluation method<\/h3>\n<p>The website\u2019s accessibility was assessed by:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Manual visual inspection of key page sections (Home, About Us, Contact, Services).<\/li>\n<li>Use of automated testing tools such as WAVE, AXE and Lighthouse.<\/li>\n<li>Compliance with the guidelines set out in WCAG 2.1, BITV 2.0 and the Act to Strengthen Accessibility (BFSG).<\/li>\n<li>Incorporation of the features of the Elementor Ally plugin, particularly with regard to keyboard accessibility, contrast and user customisation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Enforcement proceedings<\/h2>\n<p>If you believe that you have been disadvantaged by a lack of accessibility on our website, you may contact the relevant enforcement body.
