The Graz Museum team is committed to making its website accessible in accordance with the Federal Act on Accessible Access to Federal Websites and Mobile Applications (Web Accessibility Act \u2013 WZG) and Directive (EU) 2016\/2102.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This accessibility statement applies to the website:
www.grazmuseum.at<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Status of compliance with requirements<\/strong> Non-accessible content<\/strong> 1. Color contrast<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Due to the chosen corporate design, some text elements and links do not meet the required minimum contrast ratios (e.g., elements with colored backgrounds or hover states).<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. Video elements without subtitles<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Videos currently lack subtitles or text alternatives (transcripts). Consequently, the content is not fully accessible to deaf or hard-of-hearing individuals. Retrofitting existing videos would be disproportionate; however, we are working on a solution for future content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. Navigation and keyboard operability<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Full keyboard navigation is not yet guaranteed across all sections of the website. Certain interactive elements (e.g., drop-down menus or modal windows) do not offer optimal focus handling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 4. PDF Documents<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n PDF files published before March 5, 2026, do not consistently meet accessibility requirements (e.g., missing tags, structural information). Due to resource constraints, there are currently no plans to retroactively make these documents accessible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We are continuously working to optimize our website and plan to address these issues gradually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 5. AI-Generated Alternative Text for images<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Some of the alternative text (alt text) used for images on this website is generated using artificial intelligence (AI). This alternative text serves to make image content accessible to blind and visually impaired users via screen readers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although the AI systems used are carefully selected, automatically generated image descriptions may occasionally be incomplete or incorrect. We regularly review and improve this alternative text and strive to continuously enhance its quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you encounter any inaccurate or incomplete alternative text, please let us know using the contact details provided below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Preparation of this Accessibility Statement<\/strong> Feedback and Contact<\/strong> We strive to respond to your inquiry in a timely manner.
