Accessibility statement

Status of the declaration: June 1, 2022

Information about the accessibility of these web pages in accordance with § 9b NBGG and about related contact options.

This declaration on accessibility applies to www.osnabrueck.de and the following subpages:

These web pages are mostly compliant with the requirements of the harmonized European standard EN 301 549 V2.1.2 (08-2018).

Non-accessible content:

  • Videos
  • Geodata
  • Fillable PDF documents
  • iFrames

The content listed is not accessible for the following reasons:

  • The videos on the pages listed above are generally not captioned or in sign language. Videos serve as a supplement to the other content on these websites. As a rule, the information in the videos is therefore also available in other forms. Future videos will be supplemented with readable text.
  • By their very nature, geodata applications cannot be displayed for blind people.
  • Due to the large number of PDF documents, they cannot be reprogrammed to be barrier-free afterwards. Future PDF files will be made accessible.
  • Not all content can be created directly at www.osnabrueck.de, but must be mapped via iFrames.

Creation of this accessibility statement

This statement was created on June 1, 2022. It is based on an assessment by severely vision impaired and blind users who have tested these websites.
