Declaration of accessibility
This accessibility statement applies to the website www.gasthof-schopper.at of the company Gasthof Schopper
The operators of this website endeavour to make its content and functions accessible in accordance with the Federal Act on Accessibility Requirements for Products and Services (BaFG), Federal Law Gazette I No. 48/2023, and Directive (EU) 2019/882.
Scope of this declaration
This declaration on accessibility applies to this website, any existing partner sites and any existing language versions, including all content and functions offered via mobile devices, insofar as these are subject to the scope of application of the BaFG (Section 2 (2) (6) - "Services in electronic commerce").
Status of conformity with the requirements
This website is partially compatible with conformity level AA of the "Guidelines for accessible web content - WCAG 2.1" and with the applicable European standard "EN 301 549 V 3.2.1 (2021-03)".
Content that is not accessible
The following content and functions are currently not or only partially accessible and (as explained below) excluded from the accessibility requirements:
The following example points are available for individual selection, depending on requirements:
1. statutory content exemptions (§ 2 para. 3 BaFG)
The following content is exempt:
"Some PDF documents provided on this website that were published before 28 June 2025 do not comply with current accessibility standards."
"Recorded video content created before 28 June 2025 is available without subtitles or audio description."
"Interactive maps for location display are not fully accessible; essential information (address, directions) is also provided in text form."
"Content that is integrated by external partners (e.g. social media plugins, embedded videos from third-party providers) is outside the area of responsibility and therefore cannot be fully accessible."
2. fundamental change (§ 17 BaFG)
"Certain design elements of our website are an integral part of our corporate design. A complete adaptation to barrier-free requirements would mean a fundamental change to this design."
"The display of interactive graphics is based on proprietary tools that cannot be technically adapted without significant loss of functionality. An accessible alternative in the form of a text description is provided."
Artistic and creative content:
"Certain artistic graphics, illustrations or layouts are part of the overall creative concept. A change to fulfil the accessibility requirements would significantly change the artistic character and the intended form of expression."
Brand identity:
"Some design elements, such as colour gradients, contrasting elements or animations, are central components of the visual brand identity. An accessible adaptation would represent a fundamental change in this brand perception."
Special interactive functions:
"Complex interactive elements (e.g. 3D product visualisations or simulations) are a core component of the offering. A complete adaptation for screen readers would significantly change the functionality and limit the user experience."
Dynamic content:
"The real-time display of certain live data (e.g. interactive stock market prices or map movements) could not be technically implemented in an accessible way without changing the central function of the application."
Multimedia presentations:
"Some multimedia presentations deliberately rely on the synchronisation of image and sound as a design element. A barrier-free adaptation (e.g. by separating the elements) would significantly change the overall experience."
Niche functions:
"Individual specialised functions are aimed exclusively at a specific user group and would be restricted in their original functionality by adaptations for accessibility."
3. disproportionate burden (§ 18 BaFG)
"A complete reworking of all historical PDF archives would represent a disproportionate financial and organisational effort. Central content will therefore be made accessible on request."
"Accessible adaptation of the booking software used is not possible due to the technical conditions of the external provider. However, users can receive support via alternative contact channels (telephone, email)."
Amounts of data:
"The complete barrier-free preparation of our image and video inventory would represent a disproportionate personnel and financial effort. However, important information is also provided in text form."
Third-party systems:
"Our website integrates external tools (e.g. payment or chat modules) that originate from third-party providers. As their customisation is beyond our control, these functions cannot currently be offered completely barrier-free."
Short-lived content:
"Certain content published at short notice (e.g. event announcements or seasonal campaigns) cannot always be provided in an accessible form due to the tight time frame."
Technical limitations:
"The interactive presentation of complex tables and statistics via third-party systems cannot be implemented without barriers. The essential content is therefore also published in an accessible PDF file."
Old systems / legacy software:
"Some older functionalities of the website are based on system components that will be replaced by a new system in the foreseeable future. Adapting these outdated modules would be technically complex and economically disproportionate."
Resource bottlenecks:
"Due to the size of the company and limited financial and human resources, not every function can currently be made fully accessible. However, we are endeavouring to make continuous improvements within the limits of available resources."
4. micro-enterprises (§ 6 BaFG)
"As a micro-enterprise with fewer than 10 employees and an annual turnover of less than €2 million, we are exempt from the obligation to fully implement the accessibility requirements for our online services in accordance with Section 6 BaFG. Nevertheless, we endeavour to make the content as accessible as possible."
