Accessibility statement

Introduction

The Cookie Labs GmbH wants this website to be usable by as many people as possible. This statement applies to thecookielabs.com.

Conformance status

This website is partially conformant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. This is based on a self-assessment of 12 November 2026 using automated testing tools (axe-core and WebAbility).

Known limitations

  • In the cookie banner, some buttons do not meet the required color contrast.
  • In the language switcher, the visible text and the name exposed to screen readers do not match.
  • Keyboard focus is not visible in some places or can be hidden by the fixed header.
  • Some buttons in the timeline navigation on the home page have a smaller click target than recommended.
  • The "Universum" menu and the website animations have not yet been fully tested with assistive technologies.

We are working on fixing these issues.

How we test

We regularly test the website with automated tools. A manual review with screen readers by our DiversityUX team is still pending.
