Accessibility Declaration

1) Introduction

We are pleased about your visit to our website and thank you for your interest.

Below you will find information regarding the accessible usability of our online service.

We inform you about:

  • what offerings and features you can expect on this website,
  • how you can use these offerings and features,
  • which options are available for accessible usage, and
  • which authority is responsible for monitoring accessibility on this website.

2) Offerings and Features of this Website

This website is an online shop for the sale of goods.

Goods refer to physical items in this context.

The goods presented here can be added to a virtual shopping cart and then ordered and paid for in a binding manner.

This website features both a header and a footer menu.

In the header menu, the goods we offer are listed by category and can be individually accessed from there.

Each product is described on its own detail page with further information on its essential characteristics, delivery contents, and total price. From there, it can be added to the electronic shopping cart.

Additionally, the header menu provides access to the electronic shopping cart once you have added at least one product. From this shopping cart, the electronic order process can be initiated and completed.

The footer menu contains links to our legal notice with contact information as well as to information regarding the legal foundations of our online service, shipping and payment options, and other helpful service pages.

3) Explanation on the Use of Offerings and Features

3.1 Virtual Buttons

This website can be operated using virtual buttons.

3.2 Homepage, Overview, and Detail Pages

On the homepage, the central section displays a selection of available products. By interacting with a product presentation, you are directed to the product detail page.

In the header menu, you can navigate between different product categories.
After selecting a category, you arrive at an overview page showing all products in that category.

By interacting with a product presentation on the overview page, you are again directed to the product detail page.

The product detail pages include, in addition to all essential product and price information, a quantity selection element and an “add to cart” button, if applicable.

If available, the desired quantity can be set using the quantity selection.

3.3 Electronic Shopping Cart

By clicking the add-to-cart button, you add the product (in the selected quantity, if applicable) to the electronic shopping cart.

This electronic cart can be accessed at any time via the header menu.

You can review the added products here. Using the appropriate buttons, products can be removed or their quantities adjusted, if applicable.

3.4 Electronic Ordering Process

After reviewing, you can complete the electronic ordering process by interacting with the relevant buttons.

First, you will be asked to enter your contact details (at minimum: name, email address, and shipping/billing address) via an input form.

In the next step, you can choose from the available shipping or service options.

Finally, you select one of the available payment methods, enter the necessary payment details, and finalize the order.

The order only becomes binding when you click the designated button on the final order page. This button is labeled “Buy,” “Buy Now,” “Order with Obligation to Pay,” or a similarly clear term.

Before clicking this order button, you can navigate back to previous steps using your browser's “Back” button and/or cancel the order process at any time.

If you choose to pay with an online payment method, you will be redirected to the payment provider’s system from the final order page to complete the payment there.

4) Legal Requirements for Accessibility

This website is considered an online shop among the so-called “services in electronic commerce” and is characterized by an electronic ordering and payment option.

It is therefore subject to specific legal requirements regarding accessibility.

Generally, this website must provide functions and procedures that are tailored to the needs of people with disabilities and enable operability with digital assistive technologies.

The online shop functions of this website must therefore be:

  • perceivable
  • operable
  • understandable, and
  • robust

in their design.

Perceivability means that the information and components of the online shop are presented in a way that makes them easily perceivable by all users.

Operability requires that the functions of the online shop can also be used by individuals with limitations in mobility or cognition.

Understandability means that the information and functions of the online shop are logically structured, easily recognizable, and clearly labeled.

Robustness finally demands that the content and functions of the online shop can be used reliably and without limitations, even when users employ digital assistive technologies.

If the online shop offers products for sale that are subject to accessibility requirements, then—where available—information about their accessible use must be provided.

5) Available Aids for Accessible Use

This website fulfills accessibility requirements through the following measures:

  • Alt texts for images: Images in the online shop are equipped with alternative texts that provide a short description and can be processed by screen readers.
  • Operation via mouse and keyboard: The online shop functions can be operated using either a mouse or a keyboard. The keyboard’s control keys can move and activate the cursor.
  • Browser-independent page layout: Contents and functions of this website are available in identical layout, alignment, and resolution regardless of the browser used.
  • Sufficient spacing between characters: Text characters are displayed with sufficient spacing to ensure readability.
  • Compatibility with screen readers: The content of the online shop is compatible with all common screen readers and can be read and interpreted by them.
  • Responsive design (adaptation to various screen sizes): The content, elements, and functions automatically adjust in size according to the user’s screen.
  • Scalability (visibility when enlarged): Page elements and content remain high-resolution and legible even when enlarged.
  • Strong color contrast: A high contrast between text and background colors is preset to ensure optimal visibility of page elements.
  • Textual hints for unfilled input fields: If mandatory input fields are left blank, a text-based hint appears in addition to color marking, clarifying what information is missing.
  • Subtitles in videos: Embedded videos are provided with subtitles to allow unrestricted playback for users who are deaf or hard of hearing.
