<li>No API key required – uses OpenStreetMap tiles</li>
<li>Simple shortcode embedding</li>
<li>Address geocoding via Nominatim</li>
<li>Custom marker titles with popups</li>
<li>Multiple tile providers (OpenStreetMap, CartoDB Light, CartoDB Dark)</li>
<li>Responsive design for all devices</li>
<li>Configurable zoom levels</li>
<li>Enable/disable scroll wheel zoom</li>
<li>Gutenberg block support</li>
<li>Lightweight and fast loading</li>
</ul>

<h3>External Services</h3>
This plugin relies on the following third-party services to provide map functionality:
<h4>OpenStreetMap Tile Servers</h4>
This plugin displays maps using tile images from OpenStreetMap’s tile servers. Map tiles are loaded when a map is displayed on your website.
<ul>
<li>What it does: Provides the visual map tiles (the actual map images you see)</li>
<li>When data is sent: Every time a map is displayed on your site</li>
<li>What is sent: The geographic coordinates (latitude/longitude) and zoom level to determine which map tiles to load</li>
<li>Service provider: OpenStreetMap Foundation</li>
<li>Terms of Use: https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Terms_of_Use</li>
<li>Privacy Policy: https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_Policy</li>
<li>Tile Usage Policy: https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/tiles/</li>
</ul>
<h4>CartoDB/CARTO Tile Servers (Optional)</h4>
If you choose the CartoDB Light or CartoDB Dark tile providers, map tiles are loaded from CARTO’s servers instead.
<ul>
<li>What it does: Provides alternative styled map tiles</li>
<li>When data is sent: Only when CartoDB tile providers are selected</li>
<li>What is sent: Geographic coordinates and zoom level</li>
<li>Service provider: CARTO</li>
<li>Terms of Service: https://carto.com/legal/</li>
<li>Privacy Policy: https://carto.com/privacy/</li>
</ul>
<h4>Nominatim Geocoding Service</h4>
When you provide an address (instead of coordinates), this plugin uses the Nominatim geocoding service to convert the address to geographic coordinates.
<ul>
<li>What it does: Converts street addresses to latitude/longitude coordinates</li>
<li>When data is sent: Only when an address is provided in the shortcode (not when using lat/lng coordinates directly)</li>
<li>What is sent: The address text you specify in the shortcode</li>
<li>Data caching: Geocoded results are cached for 24 hours to reduce API calls</li>
<li>Service provider: OpenStreetMap Foundation</li>
<li>Terms of Use: https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/nominatim/</li>
<li>Privacy Policy: https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_Policy</li>
</ul>
Note: If you prefer not to use the geocoding service, you can always provide latitude and longitude coordinates directly using the <code>lat</code> and <code>lng</code> shortcode attributes.
