Accessibility Statement
This accessibility statement applies to the website https://semeco.info. This website is run by EKFZ for Digital Health at TU Dresden. The EKFZ for Digital Health is committed to making its websites and mobile applications accessible, in accordance with “Website Accessibility Act” BfWebG (Barrierefreie-Websites-Gesetz) and the “Accessible IT Ordinance” BITV 2.0 (Barrierefreie-Informationstechnik-Verordnung), implementing EU Directive 2016/2102.
Preparation of this Accessibility Statement
This statement was prepared on 30th June 2023 and last reviewed on 27th June 2023. The basis for issuing this accessibility statement is a self-assessment of the website’s compatibility with the requirements of the BfWebG in accordance with BITV 2.0, carried out by TU Dresden.
Compliance status with the requirements of the BITV
The web presence of TU Dresden was launched before 23rd September 2018 and does not yet fully correspond to the current state of accessibility. We are constantly working on the further development of the TUD’s web presence and in doing so we are also trying to break down barriers.

- Alternatives for images and graphic elements are not fully available.
- No alternatives are offered for videos and time-controlled media.

TU Dresden’s website contains a large number of documents that were published before 23rd September 2018 and are not accessible. If you have any questions about documents and related deficiencies, please contact the Registration Office.
The responsibility for the editorial contents lies with the respective organisations and persons who have created the contents of these pages. They are supported in their work by regular quality controls and training. Nevertheless, errors and accessibility issues in implementation may occur. If you notice any shortcomings or difficulties in accessing the content, you are welcome to report these to the Registration Office.
Accessibility beyond legal requirements
To improve accessibility beyond the legal requirements, we have implemented the following additional contents:
- Overview page of the TU Dresden in simple language including glossary to explain difficult words
- Sign language video about TU Dresden
Both pages can be found under “Accessibility” in the header of our website.
