https://shufflenblues.com/location/ OSM is fantastic. I wanted a free, unencumbered map that matches the site's theme for ride sharing, billeting, and the venue location. The solution wasn't trivial, but at least it was possible. Couldn't imagine doing that with Google Maps. |

There's a little (i)nformation icon on the bottom right but it doesn't seem to do anything. If this is OSM then attribution is required. It's how we make people aware of the noncommercial project (considering we barely have budget for servers, running ads is a bit hard) and it also tells people where they can add corrections
The legalese is here if you want https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright but in short, OSM maps need to show something like "©OpenStreetMap Contributors". There's debate whether an (i) fold-out icon is enough since the license technically stipulates that anyone interacting with the material must also be aware that it's OSM data and not literally everyone will click that. Personally I find that clause too restrictive, and the use on your website so minimal... but that's the legal terms. Nobody ever got sued by the OpenStreetMap Foundation. Do with the information as you see fit :P. Personally I'm already happy that you found it suits your purposes well!
