Declaration on digital
accessibility

Container

KTG Karlsruhe Tourismus GmbH and KME Karlsruhe Marketing und Event GmbH endeavor to ensure that their website complies with Section 10 (1) of the State Disability Equality Act (L-BGG) barrier-free accessibility.

This declaration on digital accessibility applies exclusively to the website www.karlsruhe-erleben.de.

Status of compatibility with the requirements

This website is partially compatible with Section 10 (1) L-BGG due to the following incompatibilities and exceptions.

Non-accessible content

The content listed below is not barrier-free for the following reasons:

Documents integrated into the website (.pdf, .doc, etc.)

Reason: The large number of documents provided, some of which are already older, has not yet made it possible to transfer them into an accessible format. Documents provided by third parties (e.g. other organizations, DMOs, associations, etc.) are also not accessible.

Videos integrated into the website

Justification: It has not yet been possible to provide the videos with an audio description.

Cartography within the website

Reason: A cartographic representation is a helpful and useful addition to information. Cartography is essentially a pictorial representation, which therefore cannot meet the requirements of the BITV.

Images from the shared mein.toubiz database do not always have an alternative text

Justification: The website uses the mein.toubiz database (central tourism database of the state of Baden-Württemberg) as a central element. Depending on the maintenance status, these data records are more or less barrier-free. It has not yet been possible to provide alternative texts for all data records.
