Cannabis Social Club Dortmund e. V. wants everyone to be able to use csc.do. As a club, we are not a public body. The German Accessible Information Technology Ordinance (BITV 2.0) does not apply to us. We still follow the requirements of WCAG 2.2 at level AA and publish this statement voluntarily.
Compliance status
Because of the points listed below, this website is partially compliant with WCAG 2.2, level AA.
What is not yet accessible
- Maps: The map of the no-consumption zones, the map of our registered office and the map of advice services are images of a map. You can move and zoom them with the keyboard, but their content only becomes clear by looking at them. The “Check my location” and “Check an address in Dortmund” functions give their result as text, and the rules are also written out on the page. The address of our registered office is on the contact page. The advice services are listed with their addresses as text below their map; every number on the map can be reached with the keyboard and leads to the relevant service.
- PDF files: We have not checked the checklists, handouts and training certificate against PDF/UA. Their content is also available as a web page.
- Easy German: Only part of the website is available in Easy GermanDE (Leichte Sprache), currently eight pages, in German only.
- Sign language and audio: There are no videos in German Sign Language and no recorded audio versions. Your device’s read-aloud function works on all pages.
- Screen readers: We have not yet done a full test with a screen reader.
- Very narrow screens: At a width of 320 pixels, a long word in a narrow box may break in the middle, especially in the translated versions.
- Other services: The members’ portal (portal.csc.do) and linked websites of other providers are not covered by this statement.
What we do about it
- Easy German for the most important topics, linked at the bottom of every page.
- Reading aid (“Aa” button): larger text and more space between lines, words and letters.
- A dark view that is just as good as the light one.
- Full keyboard operation, with a visible focus and a “Skip to content” link.
- Colour contrasts calculated, fonts hosted by us, no embedded third-party services.
- The website in 20 languages: German, English, Turkish, Ukrainian, Arabic, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Bulgarian, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Persian, Kurdish (Kurmancî), Albanian, Serbian, French, Greek, Czech and Portuguese, each also including the sections knowledge, “Explained briefly”, training with test, code of conduct and news. More languages will follow.
How this statement was prepared
We prepared this statement on 29 September 2026 and checked it again on 30 September 2026 after eight more languages were added to the website. It is based on a self-assessment carried out from 28 to 30 September 2026:
- automated testing with axe-core, with no findings, most recently for the new pages in all 20 languages, on desktop in light and dark mode and on a smartphone,
- all 1,258 pages at a width of 320 pixels (equivalent to 400% zoom) and at 200% zoom,
- keyboard-only operation, including the age check, menu, search, self-test, training with test and the map of advice services,
- a visual check of the keyboard focus for every type of control.
We have fixed the errors we found. We will check the website again whenever a lot changes, and after one year at the latest.
