External Service: OpenStreetMap (Map & Geocoding)
To let customers choose a delivery locker or store on a map at checkout, this plugin uses OpenStreetMap services. This only happens on the checkout page, and only when a pickup-point shipping method is available.
- Map tiles are loaded from OpenStreetMap tile servers (tile.openstreetmap.org) by the customer’s browser to render the interactive pickup-point map. As the tile usage policy requires, each tile request carries your store’s address as the HTTP Referer.
- Nominatim (nominatim.openstreetmap.org) geocodes the customer’s postcode into map coordinates so the nearest pickup point can be suggested. This request is made from your server. Only the postcode and the country (Greece) are sent, along with your store’s address and the plugin version to identify the request as the usage policy requires — no personal or order data. Results are cached for 7 days (postcodes that cannot be found for 1 day) to minimise requests.
