Web Content Accessibility

Inter-Research Science Publisher is committed to providing a website that is accessible to all users, following the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (WC3). As Inter-Research sits solely within Germany, the relevant framework is legally set by the European Accessibility Act (EAA) and the German Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz (BFSG). A major upgrade of the Inter-Research website is currently in development which (among other aims) will bring it into BFSG / EAA / WCAG compliancy, expected to be implemented by end May 2025. A Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) will be undertaken once the upgrade is implemented, which will also map related compliancy under the USA Revised Section 508 Standards. In the meantime, users who experience access difficulties within the framework of Section 508 or the WCAG 2.0 are very welcome to contact us to advise us of the problem and to work with us to develop individual practical solutions.
