Accessibility Statement
The Fürth Tourist Information Centre strives to ensure that its website www.tourismus-fuerth.com complies with the Bavarian Digital Regulation (BayDiV), the Bavarian E-Government Regulation (BayEGovV), the requirements of the Barrier-Free Information Technology Regulation (BITV 2.0), and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1).
This accessibility statement applies to the website at www.tourismus-fuerth.com
Date of last revision: December 1, 2025
Status of compliance with requirements
The website is largely accessible. The most important measures are:
- Images & graphics: All important images have meaningful alt text. Graphics with text information have textual alternatives.
- Texts & readability: Font sizes are scalable (up to 200%) without loss of layout. Color contrasts largely meet WCAG AA requirements. Headings are logically structured.
- Navigation & usability: All content is accessible via keyboard; focus indicators are visible; menus, drop-downs, and pop-ups work without a mouse.
- Forms: All forms have clearly assigned labels, mandatory fields are marked, and forms can be completed entirely via keyboard.
- Links: Link texts are mostly meaningful; external links are marked if they open in a new window.
- Eye-Able Assistant: Users can customize the website to their individual needs (e.g., font size, contrast, read-aloud function).
- Eye-Able Translator: The website can be translated into simple language, AI-controlled for better comprehensibility.
Non-accessible content
Despite extensive measures, some content is not yet fully accessible:
- PDF documents: Some internal PDFs are not yet accessible (tags, text instead of images, bookmarks). We cannot provide accessibility information for external PDFs.
- Videos & multimedia: Not all embedded videos have subtitles, audio descriptions, or transcripts. The focusability of the controls is limited for some videos for screen readers.
- iFrames: Not all iFrames currently have an accessible name (title attribute). We have no influence on the content within the iFrames.
- Color contrasts for buttons: Some buttons do not yet fully comply with WCAG AA requirements. We are continuously working to eliminate these barriers step by step.
