Accessibility statement
=======================

The Tourismus- und Congress GmbH Frankfurt am Main is committed to ensure digital accessibility for people with disabilities for the websites ,  and . The legal basis is the Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz (BFSG) in conjunction with EU Directive 2019/882 and - for public institutions - the Barrier-free Information Technology Ordinance (BITV 2.0).

**Status of compatibility with the requirements**
The above-mentioned websites are currently partially compatible with the requirements of BITV 2.0 and WCAG 2.2 - conformity level AA.

**Non-accessible content**

- Individual titles containing English-language terms have not been labelled as foreign-language.
- Individual PDF files and documents are not yet accessible.
- Some content (e.g. maps or external widgets) is not yet fully usable with screen readers.
- The video files used do not have subtitles and are not transcribed.
- Depending on the contrast value of the image, the copyright information on the images may not be sufficiently recognisable.
- The texts displayed on the website are not additionally presented in plain language.
- Not all images have an alternative text that can be used by screen readers.
- Colour contrasts and keyboard navigation are not yet fully optimised on individual subpages.
- Not all content elements can be operated exclusively with the keyboard.
- No editorial landmarks have been maintained in the individual stages on the individual pages. The reason for this is that our individual pages only describe one topic at a time, which is why further organisation with the help of landmarks should not be necessary.
- A link title has not been maintained for all buttons where links have been stored (example: the button for submitting an editorial form)

**Aspects already optimised with regard to accessibility**

- An alternative text has been maintained for all images that are not purely decorative.
- The H-labelling of the headings was maintained in such a way that one H1 was defined per page and a hierarchical gradation of the other H-labelling was subsequently carried out.

**Creation of the declaration**

This declaration was created on 27 June 2025. The assessment of the website's accessibility is based on a self-assessment.
