Accessibility

My website complies with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 and the BITV guidelines for accessible websites. This includes the following:

Keyboard operability: All functions are accessible without a mouse.
High-contrast design: Good readability for all visual abilities.
Responsive Design: Seamlessly adapts to different screen sizes and devices.
Screen reader compatibility: Content is read clearly and comprehensively.
Logical structure: Headings and content follow a logical sequence.
Accessible media: Alternative text is provided, and videos do not start automatically without control.

How do I adjust the font size?

Use the keyboard shortcuts [CTRL] [+] (enlarge) and [CTRL] [-] (reduce)
Press the [CTRL] key and turn the mouse wheel.
You can also set your preferred font size in your browser settings. Our site respects this setting.

My offer for you

Audit and remediation

I test your site against WCAG 2.2 and hand you a report that names every finding: what is affected, why it matters and what it takes to fix. On request I then implement the fixes myself.

For German public sector bodies I also produce the accessibility statement in the form the BGG and BITV 2.0 require.

Automated checks only find part of the problem. Keyboard operation, screen reader behaviour and plain language have to be checked by a person. A report consisting of nothing but a tool run mostly creates a false sense of safety.

New build

When remediating an existing site would cost more than replacing it, I build it again. Accessibility then sits in the structure from the start rather than being negotiated in afterwards.

That means semantic markup, a real heading hierarchy, keyboard paths that actually work, and contrast decided at design time rather than patched afterwards.

Technically I work with a headless CMS, React and Next.js. I don't do the design myself, so I bring in UX partners I have worked with for years.

Further reading

The effort pays off beyond the legal trigger. Clearer navigation and plainer text help every visitor, and the same clean structure is easier for search engines and AI assistants to read.

It also affects more people than most expect. A broken arm, sunlight on a screen or a noisy office create the same barriers, just temporarily.

I have written up what this means in practice: "Digital Accessibility"
