Please, include a clear info like "© OpenStreetMap (ODbL)" visible on the corner of the map. You are using OpenStreetMap data in violation of its license - without a clearly visible attribution. Please see https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright - especially https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1-0/ "You must include a notice associated with the Produced Work reasonably calculated to make any Person that uses, views, accesses, interacts with, or is otherwise exposed to the Produced Work aware that Content was obtained from the Database, Derivative Database, or the Database as part of a Collective Database, and that it is available under this License." -- Mateusz Konieczny
