Statement on accessibility
This accessibility statement applies to www.gabor.com
We design our website to be accessible in accordance with the German Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSG), in particular § 14 in conjunction with § 3 (1) BFSG, with reference to the Regulation on the German Accessibility Strengthening Act (BFSGV). The BFSG implements EU Directive 2019/882 on accessibility requirements for products and services.
The website www.gabor.com is Gabor’s official online presence with information about the latest collections, inspiration on fashion topics and comprehensive product details. Customers can buy footwear and bags online via the publicly accessible online shop.
Based on a self-assessment dated 28 June 2025, all of the stated requirements are currently being met. The accessibility assessment is based on the success criteria of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.2 at level AA, with a focus on the following areas:
Alternative texts and captions
- Alternative texts and captions
- Graphics, objects and controls contain alternative texts
- ARIA labels are uniformly assigned and cover all relevant elements

- List items are correctly marked up semantically
Keyboard operability and functionality without a mouse
- All functions can be operated in full without a mouse
- Keyboard navigation takes place in a logical order, including correct focus behaviour for selection fields
Contrasts and visual design
- The colour contrast for non-textual elements is sufficient
- Interactive elements meet the minimum required size and have sufficiently large click or touch areas
Video and multimedia content
- Playable media can be paused at any time
- Existing audio and video content meets the requirements for text alternatives
Forms and error handling
