Some linked images are missing alternative text. (WCAG Success Criterion 1.1.1 Non-Text Content)  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Embedded videos do not have sufficient text descriptions. (1.2.3 Audio Description or Media Alternative)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pages do not consistently use a fully coherent heading structure throughout. Downloadable PDFs are not tagged. (1.3.1 Info and Relationships)  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">b) Disproportionate Burden Exceptions<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Videos on the website do not include audio description. (WCAG Success Criterion 1.2.5 Audio Description (Prerecorded)) The videos can be regarded as additional content because the information conveyed is generally also available in text form on the website, or the videos are interviews without a feature-film storyline. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PDFs of print publications can be downloaded from the website. They are not fully implemented in an accessible manner. Here, too, content is presented that is also conveyed in summarized form directly on the website. For more recent publications, we endeavor to implement accessibility requirements. For older publications, the effort constitutes a disproportionate burden within the meaning of the accessibility provisions.    <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">c) Content Outside the Scope of the Applicable Legal Provisions<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The website provides documents (PDF) for download that were published before September 23, 2018. They are not relevant for administrative purposes and therefore fall outside the scope of the applicable legal provisions. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Videos published before September 23, 2020, fall outside the scope.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Third-party content that is not within our sphere of influence is excluded from Directive (EU) 2016\/2102. No statement can be made regarding compliance with the accessibility provisions for such third-party content. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Preparation of This Accessibility Statement<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This statement was prepared on the basis of a self-assessment carried out by Zentrum Alpines Bauen.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This statement was prepared on the basis of a self-assessment carried out by Zentrum Alpines Bauen. <br\/>This statement was last reviewed on 29.01.2026<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Feedback and Contact<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We continuously improve, revise, and expand the offerings and services on this website.
