Circuit for Teams uses data from Open Street Maps and Google Maps to find the address of a stop.

Circuit does not own this data, so if you find that a stop address is incorrect (for example, the address is written correctly, but where that address is located on the map is incorrect), you will need to correct that address with Open Street Map or Google Maps.
