Welcome to RheinNatur Asia Pacific. This website is operated by Lucid Food Distribution Limited (“we”, “us”, or “our”), a Hong Kong-based distributor for RheinNatur.

- Information You Provide to Us: When you place an order, create an account, or contact us, you may provide personal details such as your name, billing address, shipping address, email address, and phone number.
- Payment Information: We do not collect or store your payment card details on our servers. All transactions are securely processed through Shopify’s checkout and its integrated, PCI-compliant payment gateways.
- Information Collected Automatically: As you browse our store, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including your IP address, browser type, time zone, and data about the specific products or web pages you view.

- Orders are processed through Shopify’s secure checkout. Shopify’s privacy practices are governed by their own Privacy Policy, which you can review on their website.
- We may also share your necessary details (like name and address) with trusted third-party logistics and shipping partners solely for the purpose of delivering your order.
6. International Data Transfers
As we serve customers across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region and utilize Shopify's global infrastructure, your personal information may be transferred to, stored, and processed outside of your country of residence (including in Hong Kong, Canada, and the United States). We ensure that any such transfers are conducted securely and in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
7. Data Retention and Security
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
