Accessibility Statement

The European Shock Society c/o Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Experimental and Clinical is committed to making its website accessible in accordance with Section 12a of the German Disability Equality Act (BGG), the German Accessible Information Technology Ordinance (BITV 2.0), and EN 301 549 (WCAG 2.1 Level AA).

Compliance Status

This website is partially compliant with BITV 2.0. Compliance was assessed through a self-evaluation conducted on August 11, 2026.

Non-Accessible Content

Some content and features are currently not fully accessible:

  • PDF documents are not consistently accessible.
  • Some graphics and images have missing or incomplete alternative text.
  • Videos currently do not include subtitles or audio descriptions.

Reasoning

Achieving full accessibility would constitute a disproportionate burden within the meaning of Article 10(2) of Directive (EU) 2016/2102. However, we are continuously working to improve accessibility.
