This digital accessibility statement applies to the PLATINUM GmbH & Co. KG website published at https://www.platinum.com/.

Status of compliance with requirements

The website is currently not fully compliant with the technical requirements of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 and the Barrier-Free Information Technology Ordinance (BITV 2.0).

Non-accessible content

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

  • Many pages contain links without link text. | WCAG: 4.1.2
  • One page contains a list item that is not part of a list. | WCAG: 1.3.1
  • On all pages, the contrast between text and background is too low. | WCAG: 1.4.3
  • Some pages do not have a title. | WCAG: 2.4.2
  • Some pages contain ‘iframe’ elements without labels. Navigation to the iframes with screen readers is difficult. | WCAG: 4.1.2
  • Many pages contain form fields without labels. Navigation to the form fields with screen readers is difficult. | WCAG: 4.1.2
  • Several pages contain buttons without labels. Navigation to the buttons with screen readers is difficult. | WCAG: 4.1.2
  • Some pages contain headings that have no labels or contain the aria-hidden attribute and are therefore not accessible to screen readers. | WCAG: 1.3.1
  • Several pages contain invalid aria attribute values. These are not detected by screen readers and are therefore not output correctly. | WCAG: 4.1.2
  • On many pages, a parent element is missing the appropriate child elements. This can confuse screen reader users, as content is expected but none is present. | WCAG: 1.3.1
  • Many pages contain interactive elements whose names are not part of the label. This makes it difficult to control the website using voice control. | WCAG: 2.5.3
  • On one page, there are elements whose Aria ID appears multiple times. This makes it difficult to navigate the website with screen readers. | WCAG: 4.1.2
  • On one page, there are lists that contain elements that do not belong in lists. As a result, the lists may not be rendered correctly by assistive technologies. | WCAG: 1.3.1
The following content is not accessible because it represents a disproportionate burden in accordance with Section 12a (6) BGG:

  • There are images without captions on individual pages. Navigation to the images with screen readers is difficult. | WCAG: 1.1.1
