Privacy & cookie policy
EPSO Dundalk respects your privacy. This page explains every technology this website uses, what it stores, and why. Last updated October 2026.
Who we are
EPSO (formerly SEEK Urban Arts Festival) runs Dundalk's open-air mural gallery. For any privacy question or request, contact us.
What we collect
We don't ask you to create an account and we don't sell data. Browsing the murals, artists and stories requires no personal information. If you contact us, we use what you send only to reply.
Cookies and similar storage
For a private-tour enquiry, the details you enter are emailed to our team so they can discuss availability, cost and arrangements with you. Please share only information needed for your enquiry. Your contact details and message are not saved in browser storage.

Other technologies we use
- Google Analytics — only after you opt in. Helps us see which murals and stories people enjoy so we can improve the trail. Advertising features are switched off.
- Google Search Console (Webmaster Tools) — helps Google list our pages in search. It sets no cookies on your device; it only uses a verification tag and anonymous search statistics Google already holds.
- OpenStreetMap map tiles — the mural map loads images from OpenStreetMap servers, which see your IP address to deliver them. No cookies are set.
- Google Maps directions — only when you tap "walking directions", you leave our site for Google Maps, where Google's own privacy policy applies.
- Hosting — our hosting provider keeps short-lived server logs (such as IP address and page requested) for security and reliability.
- Fonts and images — served from our own site, so no third party sees them.
Your rights
Under GDPR you can ask to access, correct or delete any personal data we hold, or object to its use. You can withdraw analytics consent at any time with the button above, and complain to the Irish Data Protection Commission (dataprotection.ie).
