Data Security Recycle & Remarket

 

Procedures

 

Once initial contact has been made with regards to a collection we arrange with the client a date and time convenient to them for the collection to take place.

All items for collection are recorded by the driver as they are loaded onto the vehicle. A waste Transfer Note is issued.

Upon arrival all computers are inventorised detailing all information as requested by the client, this includes but is not limited to asset numbers, make and model.

All data is then securely removed as per the request of the client using our specialist software.

All traceable tags on the machine are removed such as company asset tags or other stickers with the company name on.

A confirmation list is sent to the client and a residual value or service cost is produced.

Within ten working days documentation is sent to the client which usually includes a Waste Transfer Note if not already provided, inventory of items received, invoice for items received and any other necessary documentation from The computer recycling people.

Why erase Hard Drives? Why not just delete everything?

 

If you think delete means just hitting delete will remove all of your data, think again. Just because you delete your data, doesn't mean that it's erased completely from your PC hard drive! When you hit the delete button, the data still resides on your PC. It's like removing the labels from folders in a filing cabinet; the information still exists but is not prominently displayed. Electronic data including email has completely transformed communications these days whereby almost everyone, business and home PC users alike, store critical data on their PCs.

Recently there have been stories in the News of confidential data being found on the Hard Drives (HD) of major organisations including Banks and Hospitals where their private information has been retrieved from an apparently erased HD using the most limited of computer knowledge.

Don't be exploited by unscrupulous merchants who will use your personal information for fraudulent activities. Ensure your data is securely erased with a product that is upstanding to MOD/US Defence security levels.

If you cannot erase your data securely or would rather the HD is destroyed completely the HD needs to be granulated. Data has even been retrieved from HD's which have been drilled or sliced.

Weee Directive - (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment)

 

What is it?

 

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive came into force in January 2007 and aims to both reduce the amount of WEEE being produced and encourage everyone to reuse, recycle and recover it.
