How we proceed
In Germany, the Barrier-free Information Technology Ordinance 2.0 (BITV 2.0) applies to public bodies and the Barrier-free Strengthening Act (BFSG) will apply to various private providers from June 2025 as the legal basis.
The BITV test is suitable for both variants, in which the WCAG 2.1 criteria are tested up to level AA, plus other requirements specified by harmonized standards and laws.
We also test to the highest standard in the Quick Review, but to a limited extent. As a rule, a review comprises a home page and a sub-page. In many cases, this means that the majority of existing barriers can already be identified.
