Hi – I’m Christine, the person behind One Small Bag. This site shares real-world tips on minimalist travel, packing light, and gear that works. I value your privacy and want to be totally clear about what data I collect and what I do with it (short version: not much, and nothing dodgy).
1. What I Collect and Why
If you sign up to my newsletter:
I’ll collect your email address and (if you choose to give it) your first name. This lets me send you occasional emails about new blog posts, travel tips, packing guides, or free resources like my ultralight packing list.
You can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of any email.
If you visit the website:
Like most websites, I use basic analytics tools (Google Analytics) to see how people are finding and using the site. This data is anonymous — it doesn’t tell me who you are. It just helps me improve the site and see which content people find useful.
2. Cookies
Yes, this site uses cookies — small bits of data stored in your browser. These help:
- Load the site properly
- Track anonymous traffic (Google Analytics)
- Let you use embedded features like forms or maps
You can manage or block cookies in your browser settings any time.
3. Third-Party Tools I Use
To run this site and newsletter smoothly, I use a few third-party services:
- MailerLite – to manage email subscriptions and send newsletters. Your name and email are stored securely on their servers. Here’s their privacy policy.
- Google Analytics – for anonymous site stats. Their privacy policy is here.
I never sell or share your personal data with third parties for marketing.
4. Your Rights Under GDPR
You have the right to:
- Know what data I hold about you
- Correct or update your details

6. Changes to This Policy
I may update this privacy policy if the way I handle data changes (which is unlikely). I’ll update the date at the top if I do.
7. Plain English Summary
I’m not in the business of selling your data or bombarding your inbox. I collect the minimum I need to run the blog and newsletter — and you’re in control of it at all times.
