External services

Bootstrap 5.3.8, Bootstrap Icons 1.11.3, and Chart.js 4.5.1 are bundled inside the plugin (assets/vendor/) and enqueued from the site only on admin and booking UI screens. No CDN is used for those libraries.

Optional — Google Maps (not affiliated with Google): If the site owner enables embedded maps under Settings → Partner Portal, listing pages can show a button for visitors to opt in before loading an iframe from https://maps.google.com/. Until the visitor clicks that button, no request is sent to Google. When loaded, the visitor’s IP address and map coordinates may be processed by Google.

Optional: Listing video embeds use WordPress wp_oembed_get() for URLs the site owner adds (e.g. YouTube). WooCommerce integration loads only when WooCommerce is active. Demo content uses placeholder images bundled in assets/demo/ (no remote downloads).
