Hi,
They use the Belgian tiles (see
https://openstreetmap.be/en/projects/belgium-baselayer.html) since we
contacted them a while back (as you can see at
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Belgium/Websites). We
registered the issue as fixed there. I've sent them a message to please
make the fix.

Note that usually this kind of error is made by the web developer, not by
the map provider.
