Accessibility Statement

in accordance with Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2018/1523 of October 11, 2018, establishing a model accessibility statement in accordance with Directive (EU) 2016/2102 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the accessibility of the websites and mobile applications of public sector bodies.

The Hall-Wattens Tourism Association endeavors to ensure that its website complies with § 14b of the Tyrolean Anti-Discrimination Act 2005 implementing Directive (EU) 2016/2102 of the European Parliament and of the Council of October 26, 2016, on the accessibility of the websites and mobile applications of public sector bodies (OJ L 327, December 2, 2016, p. 1).

This statement applies to the website www.hall-wattens.at

This website is partially compliant with Level AA of the “Web Content Accessibility Guidelines – WCAG 2.1” in accordance with the applicable harmonized European standard “European Standard EN 301 549 V2.1.2 (2018-08)” due to the following incompatibilities and exceptions.

Some images are missing alternative text, meaning that this information is not accessible to screen reader users. This means that WCAG success criterion 1.1.1 (non-text content) is not met.

Our videos are hosted and published on the YouTube video platform. It is not possible to provide the required audio descriptions for some of these videos. This means that WCAG success criterion 1.2.5 (recorded audio description) is not met. We believe that rectifying this would constitute a disproportionate burden within the meaning of the accessibility regulations.

Live videos are not subtitled. This means that WCAG success criterion 1.2.4 (live captions) is not met. We do not plan to subtitle live videos, as live videos are exempt from Directive (EU) 2016/2102.

PDF and Word documents used on the website are not accessible. For example, they are not tagged, so screen reader users cannot access them or can only access them inadequately with structural information. This means that WCAG success criterion 4.1.2 (name, role, value) is not met. If you require content from one of our PDF or Word documents, please contact us. We will endeavor to provide you with the information in another form.

Our website is designed in accordance with current technical capabilities and standards. If you encounter any problems with individual elements, please let us know.
