External services

This plugin establishes connections to remote servers to fetch event data, embed media, and render maps. Depending on your admin configuration, user data (like IP addresses) may be shared with these third-party providers when a visitor loads an event page.

This plugin communicates with the following external endpoints:

1. ** Church Event API & Image Hosting**

   • Target Domain: Dynamically defined in the plugin settings (e.g., https://www.veranstaltungen-ekvw.de/).
   • Data Fetching: The local WordPress server performs periodic background HTTP requests to this specified domain to import event details (titles, descriptions, times, and categories). This is done server-side and does not expose user data.
   • Images: By default (setting “Store event images in the media library”) event images are downloaded server-side during the import and served from your own media library. No visitor data is shared. If this setting is disabled, the images are embedded directly from the configured domain via standard HTML image tags (<img>). Then the visitor’s browser downloads the images from that server, exposing the visitor’s IP address and user-agent to it.

2. Map Provider via Iframes
   With the setting “OpenStreetMap image, stored in the media library” the WordPress server renders a static map image of every event location once during the import from the OpenStreetMap tile server (https://tile.openstreetmap.org, see https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/tiles/) and stores it in the media library. The visitor’s browser only loads this local image, no visitor data is shared. The required attribution “© OpenStreetMap contributors” is shown below the map.
   With the default setting “No map, link only” no map is embedded and the visitor’s browser does not connect to any map provider; only plain links to OpenStreetMap / Google Maps / Apple Maps are shown. If a map iframe is chosen in the plugin settings, this triggers client-side external connections:

   • OpenStreetMap Choice: If configured to use OpenStreetMap, an iframe connects to https://*.openstreetmap.org (or a related tile provider) to display the venue on a map. The privacy policy of OpenStreetMap can be found under: https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_Policy
   • Google Maps Choice: If configured to use Google Maps, an iframe embeds maps from https://www.google.com/maps, which is subject to Google’s privacy policy and tracks user interactions. The Google privacy policy can be found under: https://policies.google.com/privacy
