Compliance status
We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to everyone and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstances and ability.
To achieve this, we strive to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities. Following these guidelines helps us to ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairments, cognitive disabilities and others.
This website uses various technologies to ensure that it is as accessible as possible at all times. We use an accessibility interface that allows people with certain disabilities to customize the UI (user interface) of the website and design it according to their personal needs.
In addition, the website uses an AI-based application that runs in the background and constantly optimizes the accessibility of the website. This application corrects the HTML code of the website and adapts its functionality and behavior to the screen readers used by blind users and to the keyboard functions used by people with motor impairments.
If you have discovered a malfunction or have suggestions for improvement, we look forward to hearing from you. You can contact the operators of the website by using the following e-mail info@wsb-berater.com
Screen reader and keyboard navigation
Our website uses Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA) attributes and various behavioral modifications to ensure that blind users visiting the website with a screen reader can read, understand and enjoy the features of the website.
As soon as a user with a screen reader enters your website, they will immediately receive a prompt to enter the screen reader profile so they can browse and operate your website effectively. Here's how our website covers some of the most important screen reader requirements, along with console screenshots of code examples:
Optimization for screen readers: We run a background process that learns the components of the website from top to bottom to ensure continuous compliance even when the website is updated. In this process, we provide screen readers with meaningful data using the ARIA attribute set. For example, we provide accurate form labels, descriptions for action icons (social media icons, search icons, shopping cart icons, etc.), validation instructions for form inputs, element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogs (popups), and others.
In addition, the background process scans all images on the website and provides an accurate and meaningful description based on image object recognition as an ALT tag (alternative text) for images that are not described. It also extracts text embedded in the image using OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To activate the adaptations for screen readers at any time, users only need to press the key combination Alt+1. Screen reader users will also receive automatic prompts to turn on screen reader mode as soon as they enter the website.
These adaptations are compatible with all common screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Optimization of keyboard navigation: The background process also adapts the HTML code of the website and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable via the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate through the website with the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links with the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements with the arrow keys and fill them in with the space bar or Enter key, as well as quick navigation and content skip menus that are available at any time by clicking Alt+1 or as the first elements of the website when navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus to them as soon as they appear and not allowing the focus to wander outside the popup.
Users can also use abbreviations such as "M" (menus), "H" (headings), "F" (forms), "B" (buttons) and "G" (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
Disability profiles supported on our website
Epilepsy-safe mode: This profile allows people with epilepsy to use the website safely by eliminating the risk of seizures caused by flashing or flashing animations and risky color combinations.
Mode for the visually impaired: This mode adapts the website to the needs of users with visual impairments, such as failing eyesight, tunnel vision, cataracts, glaucoma and others.
Mode for cognitive impairments: This mode offers various assistance options to help users with cognitive impairments such as dyslexia, autism, CVA and others to focus more easily on the essential elements of the website.
ADHD-friendly mode:
This mode helps users with ADHD and neurodevelopmental disorders to read, browse and focus on the most important elements of the website more easily, while significantly reducing distractions.
Blind-friendly mode:
In this mode, the website is configured to be compatible with screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver and TalkBack. A screen reader is software for blind users that is installed on computers and smartphones and with which websites must be compatible.
Keyboard navigation profile (motor-impaired): This profile enables people with motor disabilities to operate the website using the Tab, Shift+Tab and Enter keys. Users can also use keyboard shortcuts such as "M" (menus), "H" (headings), "F" (forms), "B" (buttons) and "G" (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
Additional UI, design and readability adjustments
Font customization - Users can increase and decrease the font size, change the font family (type), adjust the spacing, alignment, line height and much more.
Color adjustments - Users can select different color contrast profiles, such as light, dark, inverted and monochrome. Users can also swap the color schemes of titles, texts and backgrounds with over seven different color options.
Animations - People with epilepsy can stop all running animations with a click of the mouse. Animations controlled via the interface include videos, GIFs and flashing CSS transitions.
Content highlighting - Users can highlight important elements such as links and titles. You can also specify that only focused elements or elements held with the mouse pointer are highlighted.
Audio mute - Users with hearing aids may experience headaches or other problems due to automatic audio playback. With this option, users can mute the entire website immediately.
Cognitive disorders - we use a search engine linked to Wikipedia and Wiktionary that enables people with cognitive disorders to decipher the meaning of sentences, initials, slang, etc.
Additional functions - we offer users the ability to change the color and size of the cursor, use a print mode, activate a virtual keyboard and many other functions.
Compatibility with browsers and supporting technologies
We strive to support the widest possible range of browsers and assistive technologies so that our users can choose the tools that best suit them with as few restrictions as possible. That's why we've gone to great lengths to support all the major systems that account for over 95 % of user market share, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Notes, comments and feedback
We make every effort to give everyone the opportunity to adapt the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of being made accessible, or lack an appropriate technical solution to make them accessible. Nevertheless, we are constantly improving our accessibility, adding options and features, updating and improving them and developing and adopting new technologies. All of this is to achieve an optimal level of accessibility in line with technological advances. If you need help, please contact info@wsb-berater.com
