Dear UMap-Webadmins,

rearding my iframe-embedded UMap i got a legal question: Isn't it
necessary to have an official contact linked from every web page due to
european laws
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Commerce_Directive_2000> ([1]
<https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loi_pour_la_confiance_dans_l%27%C3%A9conomie_num%C3%A9rique#Notion_de_%C2%AB_commer%C3%A7ant_%C3%A9lectronique_%C2%BB>,
[2] <https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impressumspflicht>)? Could someone
help me figure out, what I should link / add to our NGO website's
"Impressum" to address that the UMap is embedded as IFrame? Or is umap
something special, since it is non-commercial?

The german umap Homeapge <https://umap.openstreetmap.de/> has
"Impressum" and "Datenschutzerklärung" - why aren't such links on the
top-level homepage present on the french version? Or would every single
map need a visible link as e.g. in the footer of CyclOSM served by OSM
France (screenshot below)? If I'd add such a link via UMap-settings as
"credits", what would be the correct page as link target? Is the
organization at https://www.openstreetmap.fr/mentions-legales/ also
responsible for the french umap instance?

Cyclosm served by OSMfr


Maybe you could redirect me to the correct person responsible for the
webserver.

Thank you for provididing the UMap Webserver, services and best regards

Joachim
