Commitment to Accessibility
Franz Joseph Schütte GmbH is dedicated to ensuring that its website https://fjschuette.com/ is accessible to all users, in full compliance with the German Accessible Information Technology Ordinance (BITV 2.0) and EU Directive 2016/2102 on the accessibility of websites and mobile applications of public sector bodies. Our goal is to provide unrestricted access to our digital content and services for all individuals, regardless of physical, sensory, cognitive, or technical limitations. Accessibility is not only a legal obligation for us but also a core component of our corporate values, promoting inclusion and equal opportunities.
Accessibility Status
The website https://fjschuette.com/ has been extensively adapted to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, and is largely compliant. We have made significant efforts to ensure that our content is accessible to all users. However, we view accessibility as an ongoing process. Regular audits and technical adjustments are part of our commitment to continuously improving usability and meeting the highest standards.
Known Limitations
We have implemented comprehensive measures to ensure the accessibility of our website. Nevertheless, for the sake of caution and to ensure maximum transparency, we would like to point out potential isolated limitations that may persist despite our efforts:
- Image Descriptions: We have equipped all images on our website with complete and detailed alternative texts (alt texts) that are accessible to visually impaired users using screen readers. Should isolated instances of insufficient alt texts occur, for example due to future content, we will work to optimize them promptly.
- Keyboard Navigation: We have ensured that interactive elements, such as dropdown menus or dynamic content, are operable using a keyboard. Should isolated elements not be fully accessible via keyboard focus, we will adjust them immediately.
- Color Contrasts: The color contrasts on our website have been aligned with WCAG 2.1 requirements to ensure readability for users with visual impairments. Should isolated deviations occur, for example due to new design elements, we will correct them as quickly as possible.
- PDF Documents: We have endeavored to make all downloadable PDF documents accessible, including tagged structures and alternative texts for graphics. Should isolated documents not fully meet the requirements, we are working on their optimization.
- Multimedia Content: Videos on our website are equipped with subtitles and, where necessary, audio descriptions. Should isolated content not be fully accessible, for example due to future uploads, we will make it accessible promptly.
We are committed to maintaining the accessibility of our website at the highest level through regular audits and technical optimizations. Should isolated barriers arise despite our efforts, we kindly ask for your understanding and feedback to resolve them as quickly as possible.
