Accessibility on the University of Konstanz website

This information is about the website: www.uni-konstanz.de

Information from public institutions
must be freely accessible.
That means:
Everyone should be able to
use and understand the information.

For example,
the law L-BGG for the state of Baden-Württemberg says so
(Landes-Behinderten-Gleichstellungs-Gesetz = law on equal opportunities for the disabled).
L-BGG is the abbreviation for this law.
This law says that
people with disabilities have the same rights
as people without disabilities.

Public institutions must follow the rules in the L-BGG.
Public institutions are public offices and authorities.
For example:

  • the "Finanzamt" (tax office)
  • the "Rathaus" (city hall)
  • the University of Konstanz
