Accessibility

This declaration of accessibility applies to the website of HI-TRON Mainz, accessible at: www.hi-tron.dkfz.de. The Helmholtz Institute for Translational Oncology (HI-TRON is a collaboration of the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) with the Johannes Gutenberg-University (JGU), the University Medical Center Mainz (UMC Mainz) and the non-profit TRON gGmbH (TRON).

The HI-TRON Mainz endeavors to make the website www.hi-tron.dkfz.de accessible in accordance with the national legal provisions for the implementation of Directive (EU) 2016/2102 of the European Parliament and the Council. The legal basis is the Equal Opportunities for People with Disabilities Act ("Behindertengleichstellungsgesetz BGG") and the Barrier-Free Information Technology Ordinance ("Barrierefreie-Informationstechnik-Verordnung BITV") in their currently valid version.

As part of an internal accessibility check, however, it was found that the website does not yet guarantee complete accessibility. The HI-TRON Mainz is therefore working hard to further improve the barrier-free design of its website. We are continuously working on improvements.
