Creation process of this declaration

This declaration was created through internal tests.

Methods for checking accessibility:

Automated tests: Automated checks were carried out using recognized tools such as WAVE and Google Lighthouse. These tests are used to identify typical accessibility problems (e.g. contrasts, alternative texts, structural errors in the code).

Manual review: In addition, individual pages were manually reviewed based on the requirements of the Accessible Information Technology Ordinance (BITV 2.0) or the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1, Level AA). This included checking keyboard operability, logical heading structure, form accessibility, and

Screen reader tests: Simple user tests with common screen readers (e.g. NVDA and VoiceOver) were carried out to assess the comprehensibility and usability for visually impaired users.
