Accessibility

The National Cancer Prevention Center is a long-term cooperation between the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) and the German Cancer Aid.

The website www.krebspraevention.de is operated by the DKFZ as a partner of the National Cancer Prevention Center.

We endeavor to make the website accessible.
This is done 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.

Status ­of ­compliance ­with ­the ­requirements

The accessibility requirements result from Section 3 (1) to (4) and Section 4 of BITV 2.0, which was issued on the basis of Section 12d BGG.

Compliance with the requirements has not yet been checked. The review of good accessibility in accordance with BITV 2.0 will take place soon.
