# Accessibility statement

We want schwarzplan.eu to be usable by everyone, including with a screen reader, keyboard or magnification. Our benchmark is the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, level AA.

## Compliance status

This website is partially accessible. We last checked the homepage, city pages, cadastral map and checkout on 9 October 2026, both automatically and by hand with a keyboard.

## What is already in place

- Pages declare their language and use a clear heading structure
- Images have text alternatives
- Form fields in search and checkout are labelled
- The cadastral map works with a keyboard: search for an address or parcel, choose a result with the arrow keys, pan the map with the arrow keys and zoom with plus and minus; Enter selects the parcel under the crosshair in the centre of the map
- Ordering works without a customer account and without time limits

## Known limitations

- Some small grey text, such as format details and secondary information, does not meet the required colour contrast. We are working on it.
- The cadastral map shows boundaries and parcels graphically. It is only partly usable with a screen reader. The parcel sheet also states area, boundary lengths and angles as text.
- The plans themselves (PDF, DXF, DWG, SVG) are graphical technical data and by their nature cannot be made accessible.

## Report a barrier

If you come across a barrier or need content in another format, write to <support@schwarzplan.eu>. We usually reply within two working days.

## Enforcement

The authority responsible for enforcing the German Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSG) is the Marktüberwachungsstelle der Länder für die Barrierefreiheit von Produkten und Dienstleistungen (MLBF) in Magdeburg, Germany.
