Accessibility Statement

The WEICON GmbH & Co. KG strives to make its website www.weicon.de accessible in accordance with the Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz (BFSG) and the Barrierefreie-Informationstechnik-Verordnung (BFITV) .

Status of Compliance with the Requirements

This website is partially compliant with the requirements of EN 301 549 and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA. Not all requirements are fully met at this time.

Non-accessible Content

Currently, the following identified barriers exist on our website:

Linked images without alternative text: Not all images used currently have alternative text, so users with screen readers cannot recognize what is depicted in some images.
Duplicate links: Some links are currently listed twice on the same page, making keyboard navigation difficult.
Keyboard control: Some system-caused obstacles will be resolved shortly through an update to a new version.
Empty form labels: There is at least one form field without a labeled label, making it difficult to use with screen readers.
Empty links: At least one link on this website contains no text or content, making the purpose of the link unrecognizable for screen reader users.
Empty buttons: There are buttons on several pages without visible or audible content that cannot be recognized by assistive technologies.
Broken ARIA reference: There are faulty ARIA references, causing assistive technologies to incorrectly assign or interpret certain elements.
Very low color contrast: Several elements (distributed across the entire website) have a very low color contrast, which can limit readability, especially for people with visual impairments.
Empty heading: At least one heading on the website is without content, which can impair navigation for screen reader users.

We are continuously working to identify and eliminate these barriers. Improvements are already planned and will be implemented promptly.
