Accessibility for your website — explained clearly.
Digital accessibility, often abbreviated as A11y, means making websites and digital services usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. Here you’ll learn what WCAG, EAA, BFSG and ADA mean, whether they apply to you, and how to put accessibility into practice.
Where do you want to start?
Four typical starting questions — each takes you straight to the right step.
Am I affected?
Three questions, a first assessment — including the microenterprise exemption.
What does the law require?
Obligations, deadlines and fines under the BFSG and EAA, clearly summarised.
Which criteria apply?
WCAG 2.2 made understandable: principles, levels and common mistakes.
How does my site do?
An honest, free scan shows you where you actually stand.
Accessibility in three layers
Law, standard, implementation — once you keep these three layers apart, the whole topic makes sense. Here’s how they fit together:
1 · The law (Why)
Laws require you to be accessible. In Germany the BFSG, EU-wide the European Accessibility Act — both apply to consumer-facing digital products and services. BFSG (Germany) · EAA (EU) · Am I affected?
2 · The standard (What)
The laws don’t define their own technology — via the EN 301 549 standard they reference the WCAG. They set out what “accessible” concretely means: testable success criteria at Level AA. Understand WCAG 2.2
3 · The implementation (How)
On your actual site it gets practical: find and fix real issues, an on-screen menu for visitors, an accessibility statement — tailored to your platform. WooCommerce · Contrast Checker
