Accessibility Statement
Why Accessibility is important to us
As TGK GmbH, our online shop tgk.de is the digital heart of our business and a central point for reaching our customers. In an increasingly interconnected world, it is crucial for us that this shop is accessible to everyone. For us, accessibility means that our online offering can be used without restrictions by people with and without disabilities – regardless of individual abilities or physical limitations.
This is not only a matter of social inclusion and equal opportunities, but also an immediate business and legal necessity. Beyond mere legal compliance, we see enormous potential in accessibility: It significantly expands our potential customer base, as not only people with permanent disabilities, but also older people, individuals with temporary limitations, or users with slow internet connections benefit from an accessible shop.
An accessible online shop improves the shopping experience for all customers, strengthens our online visibility, and solidifies our image as a responsible, innovative, and future-oriented company.
For TGK GmbH, the accessibility of our online shop is thus a strategic investment that secures our long-term success and underscores our commitment to inclusion and excellence in digital commerce.
We (TGK GmbH), as the shop operator, are therefore committed to designing this online shop in accordance with the relevant accessibility regulations. The following legal provisions apply to us:
In the spirit of Directive (EU) 2016/2102 and the Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSG), we strive to make our shop barrier-free accessible in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Disability Equality Act (BGG) and the Barrier-Free Information Technology Ordinance (BITV 2.0) for the implementation of Directive (EU) 2016/2102. The optimizations are based on the recommendations of WCAG 2.2 in the "AA" guidelines.
This accessibility statement applies to the shop https://www.tgk.de.
