3. Information We Collect
3.1 Information you provide
- Inquiry and contact forms: name, organization, email address, phone number (where provided), and the content of your message. Used to respond to institutional, sales, and partnership inquiries.
- Orders and payment details: contact and delivery details for product or service orders. Payments are processed by Stripe; we do not store full card numbers on our servers.

3.2 Information collected automatically

3.3 The LinkedIn application (MSR Daily Publisher)
The application is used to publish daily content to the LinkedIn profile authorized by the account holder. It accesses only the minimum profile identity needed for posting and does not collect data from other LinkedIn members. Content published through the application is limited to material prepared for that purpose.
4. How We Use Information
- To respond to inquiries and provide requested services or quotations;
- To process and deliver orders, including logistics and customs documentation where required;
- To operate, secure, and improve our websites and services;
- To send marketing communications where you have consented, and to honor opt-out requests;
- To comply with legal, regulatory, and tax obligations.
We do not sell personal information, and we do not use personal information for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.
5. Legal Bases (GDPR) and Lawful Grounds (PIPL)
- Contract: processing needed to provide services or fulfill orders you requested;
- Consent: marketing communications and optional cookies or tracking, which you may withdraw at any time;
- Legitimate interests: security, fraud prevention, and improving our services, balanced against your rights;
- Legal obligation: record-keeping and disclosures required by applicable law, including the Personal Information Protection Law of the PRC (PIPL) and Hong Kong's Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (PDPO) where applicable.
7. International Transfers
Our operations span Hong Kong SAR, the PRC, and international service providers. Where personal information is transferred across borders, we rely on appropriate safeguards, including contractual protections and compliance with PIPL cross-border transfer rules, to maintain a level of protection equivalent to that described in this policy.
8. Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy or as required by law. Inquiry and order records are retained for the period needed to deliver and support the service, then deleted or anonymized. Marketing data is retained until consent is withdrawn or the recipient opts out.
9. Security
We apply organizational and technical measures appropriate to the risk, including encrypted transmission (HTTPS), access controls, and restricted server access. All products sold through lwpstore.com are for laboratory research use only and are not for human or veterinary consumption, diagnosis, or treatment.
10. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

- Request correction of inaccurate information;
- Request deletion of your information (subject to legal retention requirements);
- Restrict or object to certain processing;
- Receive your information in a portable format;
- Withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
To exercise any of these rights, email info@rothschild.hk.com with your request. We respond within applicable time limits and may ask you to verify your identity first.
12. Marketing Communications
We send marketing email only where we have consent or an applicable lawful basis. Every message includes a clear unsubscribe mechanism. If you no longer wish to receive communications, use the unsubscribe link in any message or email us directly and we will honor the request promptly.
13. Children
Our websites and services are directed to business, research, and institutional audiences and are not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors.
