Declaration on accessibility

The Mecklenburg-Vorpommern Tourist Board endeavors to make its website accessible in accordance with  14 paragraph 1 of the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern State Disability Equality Act (LBGG M-V) and the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern Barrier-free Information Technology Ordinance (BITVO M-V) in its current version.

Instructions for use 

The website is generally compatible with common browsers and devices. The font size can be adjusted using the browser's zoom function. Most of the content can be operated with a keyboard and screen reader. A special operating concept or further product documentation does not currently exist.

The website offers the following functions to improve accessibility: 

  • Enlargement of the font size 
  • Adjustment of the contrast 
  • Keyboard navigation 
  • Screen reader support 
  • Status of compatibility with the requirements 

    This website is partially compatible with the requirements of the LBGG M-V and the BITVO M-V 

    Non-accessible content 

    The content listed below is not accessible for the following reasons:

    • Incompatibility with the LBGG M-V and the BITVO M-V 
    • Some PDF documents and downloads are not formatted barrier-free 
    • Alternative texts for images and graphics are partially incomplete or missing 
    • Some contrasts in the design do not fully meet the contrast requirements. 
    • The navigation structure is not optimal for use with screen readers in all areas. 

    Unreasonable load 

    The adaptation of all older PDF files and embedded third-party content (e.g. map services) is currently regarded as an unreasonable burden in accordance with Section 1(3) BITVO M-V due to the high effort involved and the large amount of content.

    On request, we will be happy to provide you with individual assistance.

    The contents do not fall within the scope of the applicable legal provisions 

    Content from third parties that is not within the sphere of influence of the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern Tourist Board (e.g. social media plugins, embedded maps from external providers) is excluded from the accessibility declaration.
