Accessibility Statement Generator

Do you offer consumers one of these services via the website?

Information on the service (BaFG)

For services, the BaFG requires three pieces of information (§ 14 (2) and Annex 3). Annex 3 names the general terms and conditions or a similar document for this. It is therefore best to link the statement from your terms and conditions as well.

Non-accessible content

What is not (yet) accessible? For example: "Some images have no alternative text."

How to describe issues well: in plain language instead of jargon ("images" instead of "non-text content"), with the reason why it is a barrier, the affected areas, a workaround and when a fix is planned. For "outside the scope", please name the specific exemption, under the WZG according to § 2 (3).

Tip: first check your website with our Accessibility Check. Below the result you can transfer the issues found directly to this page. Go to the Accessibility Check

If you rely on a fundamental alteration (§ 17 BaFG) or a disproportionate burden (§ 18 BaFG), you must document your assessment, keep it for five years from the last provision of the service and present it on request. You must also notify the Sozialministeriumservice that you rely on it. The burden assessment must be repeated for each category of service at least every five years, whenever the offer changes and when the authority requests it. If you have received funding to improve accessibility, you cannot rely on a disproportionate burden.
