This accessibility statement applies to the content published by the ZEIT-Stiftung Ebelin und Gerd Bucerius (a foundation under civil law) at https://www.zeit-stiftung.de.

1. Our Understanding of Accessibility

As a foundation under civil law, the ZEIT-Stiftung Ebelin und Gerd Bucerius is not legally required to issue an accessibility statement for its website in accordance with the Hamburgische Behindertengleichstellungsgesetz (HmbBGG) and the Hamburgische Barrierefreien Informationstechnik-Verordnung (HmbBITVO).

Nevertheless, our goal is to make our website accessible to as many people as possible without creating additional barriers. We view accessibility as a contribution to inclusion and equal participation in society.

In designing our website to be accessible, we voluntarily adhere in particular to the guidelines of the Hamburgische Behindertengleichstellungsgesetz (HmbBGG) und der HmbBITVO zur Umsetzung der Richtlinie (EU) 2016/2102.

2. Status of Compliance with Requirements

The accessibility of this website was reviewed on July 23, 2026, as part of a self-assessment.

According to this assessment, our website is partially compliant with the above-mentioned requirements. The barriers described below currently still exist.

3. Non-Accessible Content

The following content and features are currently not accessible or are only partially accessible:

Keyboard Navigation
Certain navigation controls and elements on individual pages cannot yet be consistently accessed and operated using only the keyboard.

Alternative Text
Some images, particularly in older posts, still lack complete or meaningful alternative text.

Contrast
Some text-and-background combinations do not yet meet the recommended minimum contrast ratios in all cases.

Screen Reader Usage
Certain dynamic content and individual controls are not yet optimally detected and read aloud by screen readers in all cases.

We are working to gradually reduce these barriers and further improve the accessibility of our website. A new accessibility review is scheduled for July 2028.
