Based on the review, the websites are not or only partially compatible with the aforementioned requirements due to the following incompatibilities or exceptions.
- Text alternatives
Alternative texts for graphics and objects: Technically complete and also fundamentally fulfilled editorially, however alternative texts that are partially available often do not represent an equivalent to the image content or are occasionally missing completely. - In progress - - Accessible via keyboard
Usable without mouse: Some control elements cannot currently be selected and/or activated correctly using the keyboard. - In progress - - Navigable
Meaningful document titles: Document titles do not always adequately describe the content of the pages or lead to display problems. - In progress - Contrasts - Contrasts

The elimination of these deficiencies is currently being planned and is largely already in progress. As soon as there are improvements in terms of accessibility on our pages, these will be published here and we will endeavour to eliminate the remaining barriers as quickly as possible.
