== External services ==

= Google Maps Platform =
Vertex Addons can load the Google Maps JavaScript and Static Maps APIs hosted at `maps.googleapis.com` when you enable map-related widgets. The visitor's browser calls Google's servers with the API key you configure, the map coordinates you supply, and standard browser metadata (such as IP address and user agent) so the map tiles and related functionality can be rendered. See the [Google Maps Platform Terms of Service](https://maps.google.com/help/terms_maps/) and the [Google Privacy Policy](https://policies.google.com/privacy) for details on how Google handles this data.

= Vertex Addons CDN and API =
When you browse or import Templates Kits, the plugin connects to Webilia-operated endpoints at `cdn.webilia.com` and `api.webilia.com` to fetch kit listings, previews, and assets. Those requests transmit the selected kit identifier together with the default WordPress request headers, which include your site's URL and WordPress version, so the templates can be downloaded and installed. Review the [Vertex Addons Terms & Conditions](https://vertexaddons.com/terms-and-conditions/) and [Vertex Addons Privacy Policy](https://vertexaddons.com/privacy-policy/) to understand how that data is processed.
