The internet has become an indispensable part of our daily lives, yet not everyone has equal access. At DYNAMYA, we are committed to ensuring that every individual, regardless of physical or technical capabilities, has full access to digital information. Barrier-free websites are not just a legal requirement, but a mark of respect and inclusivity. Our implementation of the latest BITV guidelines ensures that no one is left out.
The updated BITV (Barrier-Free Information Technology Ordinance) guidelines, effective from 2025 in Germany, set new standards for the accessibility of digital offerings.
These regulations ensure that websites and mobile applications of public bodies must be accessible to everyone. The enhancements include improved accessibility for multimedia content, better support for assistive technologies, and clearer guidelines for navigation and information architecture.
Our implementation of the latest BITV guidelines ensures that no one is left out.
Ensure all images, videos, and audio files have clear descriptions.
Users must be able to control media content, including pausing, stopping, and managing volume.
High contrasts and the ability to adjust color schemes help users with visual impairments.
All embedded or linked documents must be provided in formats accessible to screen readers.
Websites must be structured so that they can be easily navigated using various aids such as keyboards and screen readers.
Using clear and simple language and the ability to adjust text size improves accessibility.
Uniformity of navigation elements across the website helps users orient themselves.
Clear feedback during interactions, especially in case of errors, is essential for all users to effectively use the website.
Websites must be compatible with a variety of technologies used by people with disabilities.
Ensure all form fields are labeled and provide assistance.
DYNAMYA has extensive experience in developing websites according to BITV guidelines, particularly for public institutions. We have successfully accompanied the BIK BITV-Test, a recognized procedure for verifying the accessibility of web offerings. Our expertise in this area ensures that we not only meet the requirements but exceed them.
Technologies for Barrier-Free Websites: We implement barrier-free websites using WordPress or TYPO3, two of the most powerful content management systems that are ideally suited to meet the requirements of the BITV guidelines. Our deep expertise in both systems guarantees that every website we develop is not only legally compliant but also user-friendly and technically up-to-date.
