Declaration of accessibility

Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH strives to make its website accessible in accordance with the Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSG) and the Regulation on the Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSGV). This statement applies to https://www.get-nord.com/.

 

Status of compatibility with the requirements

This website is partially compliant with the BFSG and the BFSGV due to the following incompatibilities or exceptions.

Our products and services can be found, accessed and used by people with disabilities in the usual way, without particular difficulty and generally without outside help.

 

Non-accessible content

The following content is not accessible because it is not compatible with the underlying harmonized standard EN 301 549: 

  • On single pages there are images without captions. It is difficult to navigate to the images with screen readers. | WCAG: 1.1.1
  • There are links without link text on single pages. | WCAG: 4.1.2
  • On many pages, the contrast between text and background is too low. | WCAG: 1.4.3
  • On single pages there are 'iframe' elements without labelling. Navigation with screen readers to the iframes is difficult. | WCAG: 4.1.2
  • There are headings on a page that have no caption or contain the aria-hidden attribute and are therefore not accessible to screen readers. | WCAG: 1.3.1
  • There are tables on single pages that have not been created correctly. Not all table data is assigned to table headers. It is not always clear which table content belongs to which table header. | WCAG: 1.3.1
  • On a page, a parent element lacks matching child elements. This can confuse screen reader users, as content is expected but none is there. | WCAG: 1.3.1
  • There are interactive elements on a page whose name is not part of the labeling. This makes it difficult to control the website using voice control. | WCAG: 2.5.3
