Ok, good points.

What about embedding a Google Map? I see those even on websites of German courts.

Are those allowed because the embed is needed functionally?

Or are they not, because you could instead use a cached image of the map and switch to a “live” connection to Google’s map server only when the user actually tries to move or zoom the map (and after displaying a consent pop up)?
