Accessibility
The aim of barrier-free internet is to make websites perceptible and operable for every user. For example, visually impaired people rely on the ability to change font size or color contrast. Blind people understand the content of Internet pages using computers with voice output or Braille (braille) lines. The content of a website can only be fully reproduced by these devices if the website is designed to be barrier-free. For users with limited motor skills, navigation using the keyboard instead of the mouse can be crucial for usability.
Status of compatibility with the requirements
The accessibility requirements result from Sections 3 Paragraphs 1 to 4 and 4 of BITV 2.0, which was issued on the basis of Section 12d BGG. Accessibility was checked on the basis of the Accessible Information Technology Ordinance 2.0 and the Bavarian Digital Ordinance (BayDiV), taking into account the requirements of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1. This website is partially compliant with the requirements.

- PDF files are not yet fully accessible in an accessible format.
- Some documents are only made available to the website by third parties in a non-accessible version.
