We implement technical and organizational measures to protect your data against loss, destruction, access, alteration, and dissemination by unauthorized persons (Art. 32 GDPR). These security measures are continuously adapted to the current state of technology.
The use of our website and contact via the provided email contact options are voluntary. Please understand that secure electronic communication over the internet cannot be completely guaranteed.
We reserve the right to adapt this privacy policy to ensure it always complies with current legal requirements or to reflect changes in our services in the privacy policy. The latest version is available on our website.
We are committed to designing our website in accordance with the requirements of the Federal Disability Equality Act (BGStG, https://www.ris.bka.gv.at/GeltendeFassung.wxe?Abfrage=Bundesnormen&Gesetzesnummer=20004228) and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1, https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/).
We have implemented various measures to ensure the accessibility of our website, including the use of easily readable fonts, a clear page structure, and simple navigation options.
The following content is not yet, or only partially, compliant with accessibility requirements:
Some non-decorative images in the content lack alternative text, making this information inaccessible to screen reader users. This does not meet the WCAG success criterion 1.1.1 (Non-text Content). We plan to add alternative texts to all non-decorative images. All new images will be published with alternative texts.
Linked PDF documents are not accessible. For example, PDF documents are not tagged, making them difficult or impossible for screen reader users to access and use effectively. This does not meet WCAG success criterion 4.1.2 (Name, Role, Value). We are working to resolve this issue.
Colors and contrasts have not yet been checked, but we plan to conduct this review soon and make improvements.
No guarantee can be made regarding the accessibility compliance of linked third-party content.
If you encounter any barriers or have suggestions for improvement, please contact us via our contact email address. We appreciate your feedback to continuously improve the usability of our website.
If you do not receive an adequate response to your accessibility concerns, you have the option to contact the conciliation body of the Ministry of Social Affairs. Their website can be found here: https://www.sozialministeriumservice.at/Angehoerige/Gleichstellung/Schlichtung/Schlichtung.de.html.
