Your Little Black Book privacy policy

{ last update: September 15 2020 }

If you’re working the influencer and digital nomad life like me, almost nothing is private anymore. The reason that I founded Your Little Black Book in 2012 is that I wanted to share my personal recommendations on where to eat, shop, travel and sleep with you. Along the way I started to give a peek into my private life as well. But we understand that you probably don’t want to share everything in your life online and that your privacy is very important. Therefore we created this privacy policy to explain in detail why and how we collect data on Your Little Black Book.
