 * Hello Dima,
 * How does the location permission work with the plugin. Is it set via the plugin
   or via the google maps api?
 * Also, is it possible for a user to reset their permission to allow/deny access?
 * Thanks,
 * James

 * Hello James,
 * Location permission is google maps + browser feature. Google maps asking browser
   to share location and it is up to user and browser whether to react or not. Users
   can reset access in the browser settings. If permissions are not set to ‘always
   allow’ popup will be show each time map loaded.
 * Thanks,
    Dima

 * Thanks for the reply Dima.
 * Is it worth using a postcode entry rather than an automatic location setup?
 * When using the plugin in a live environment, especially on mobile devices the
   site asks for location information but without explaining what for. If a user
   could enter a zip/postcode instead, this would put the control in the hands of
   the user, and enable people to see what stockists were in an area they may visit
   at a later date.
 * Thanks, James
