This page is a translation for orientation only. The German version is legally authoritative. All decisions and provisions named on this page refer to German law. This translation was produced automatically/editorially and has not yet been reviewed by a native speaker for accuracy.

This page is a short English-language summary of the Barrierefreiheitserklärung (the accessibility statement required under German law, the BFSG), provided for orientation only. The German original, linked below, is the legally binding version. We aim for conformance with WCAG 2.2 Level AA under the harmonised standard EN 301 549, and we do not rely on the statutory exemption for micro-enterprises, because our users are often people shortly after a road accident who most need an accessible site.

Accessibility Statement

Summary (for orientation only — not the legally binding text):

Scope: the German Accessibility Strengthening Act (Barrierefreiheitsstärkungs gesetz, BFSG) has applied since 28 June 2025 to consumer-facing services provided electronically, which includes our accident-report form.
No micro-enterprise exemption claimed: the BFSG exempts micro-enterprises from the accessibility duty. We deliberately do not rely on this exemption, even where it might apply, because our target users are people shortly after a road accident — sometimes injured, sometimes not native German speakers, often under time pressure — who need an accessible site the most, and because our design already targets the same conformance level regardless.
Target conformance level: full conformance with the harmonised standard EN 301 549, which for web content points to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). Our target is WCAG 2.2, Level AA.
How we approach this: static HTML with no JavaScript dependency for content, so pages work reliably with screen readers and other assistive technology; locally served fonts with clearly readable typography; a structured heading hierarchy where every page answers its core question in an H1; and no content conveyed by colour, motion or image alone without a text equivalent.
Feedback on barriers: if you encounter a barrier that prevents you from using this site, please contact us using the details on the German original page. If a report does not lead to a satisfactory outcome, you may contact the responsible market-surveillance authority named there.

The German original is the legally binding version of this statement: Erklärung zur Barrierefreiheit (Deutsch).
