Legal basis
The Barrier-Free Access Act (BFSG), which transposes EU Directive 2019/882 on accessibility requirements for products and services into German law, forms the legal basis for accessible products and services in Germany.
Status of compliance with requirements
Holst Porzellan GmbH is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continuously improving user-friendliness for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards.
Our websites are currently not fully compliant with WCAG 2.1 Level AAA requirements.
The current degree of compliance is between 84 and 88% (checked using the tool at https://accessibilitycheck.friendlycaptcha.com/de/).
The accessibility of our websites is regularly reviewed. Based on the results, we strive to continuously improve accessibility both technically and editorially.
To remove barriers, we use the ‘Barrierefrei Hilfswerkzeuge’ (engl. accessibility tools) plugin, which can be customised by every user of our websites.
Non-accessible content
Despite our efforts, you may encounter individual problems with accessibility when using our websites. Below you will find a description of the known restrictions. Please contact us if you encounter any other barriers that are not listed.
ARIA roles must contain specific, subordinate child roles:
Some ARIA roles that require subordinate roles do not contain them.
Elements may only use permitted ARIA attributes:
Individual elements use ARIA attributes that do not meet the requirements of WCAG 2.1 Level AAA.
Link purpose:
Several links do not have meaningful alternative text. This mainly affects linked images in the info boxes.
Contrast:
Not all colour contrasts meet the minimum requirements. In the body text, links are only distinguished from the surrounding text by colour; the contrast is insufficient.
Non-text content:
Some elements (e.g. images or frames) do not have alternative text. In some cases, only the file name is used as alternative text.
Focus:
For individual elements, it is not clearly recognisable that they currently have keyboard focus.
Focus sequence:
In some cases, elements that are not visible can be accessed via the keyboard, which can impair user guidance.
We are working on implementing the points listed here in a barrier-free manner.
