Accessibility Declaration

We endeavour to make our services accessible barrier-free in accordance with § 1 BayBITV  2.0
The Federal Ordinance on Barrier-Free Information Technology and the Federal State Law Implementation in the Bavarian Information Technology Ordinance or the Bavarian eGovernment Ordinance corresponds to the implementation of the policy (EU) 2016/2102 for the barrier-free access to websites and mobile applications of public sector entities.
According to the Federal Ordinance on Barrier-Free Information Technology (BITV 2.0) and the Federal State Law Solution of Bay-BITV, only content in German language is to be provided on the start websites of public sector entities in order to describe the entity.
A video in sign language and a document in easy language are therefore only available in the German version.
