Introduction
ROSE Bikes GmbH is committed to make its website accessible to all users, regardless of their abilities, in order to enable unrestricted use. We are guided by the requirements of the German Ordinance on Accessible Information Technology (BITV 2.0) and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at conformance level AA.

Status of compatibility with the requirements

Our website is currently partially conformant with the requirements of BITV 2.0.  Some content and functions still have limitations, which we are gradually identifying and eliminating.



The following areas are currently not fully accessible:

• Navigation: Missing "Skip-to-content" function and limited keyboard navigation in drop-down menus.
• Contrasts: Partially insufficient colour contrast, especially with light grey text on a white background.
• Alternative texts: Not all images have meaningful alternative texts.
• Videos: Embedded videos do not contain subtitles or transcripts.
• Structure: Unclear heading hierarchy and missing ARIA roles make it difficult to use with screen readers.
• Zoom function: Layout problems occur when enlarged to 200%, especially in the navigation.
• PDF documents: Some PDF files offered on the website are not accessible. This includes technical product datasheets or manuals that are not optimisedforscreen readers, do not have a semantic structure or are not searchable.

Measures to improve accessibility

We are constantly working to improve the accessibility of our website.

Planned measures include:

• Integrate a “Skip-to-content” function.
• Optimise colour contrasts in accordance with WCAG 2.1.
• Create meaningful alternative texts for all images.
• Provide subtitles and transcripts for videos.
• Revise the page structure to improve screen reader compatibility.
• Customise the layout for better scalability when zooming.
