/01 — WHY IT MATTERS

Deleting isn’t the same as gone

A factory reset or a quick delete doesn’t truly remove your data — it can often be recovered. Old laptops, PCs, phones and hard drives sold, binned or donated without proper wiping are a real risk to your privacy and, for businesses, your GDPR obligations.

We make it safe and simple: we securely erase every device to recognised standards (or physically destroy the drive if you prefer), certify it, and recycle the hardware responsibly — keeping it out of landfill.

  • Physical drive destruction option

// GOOD QUESTIONS

Frequently asked

Is a factory reset enough?

Not always — data can often still be recovered after a reset. Proper secure wiping (or physically destroying the drive) is the only way to be certain it’s gone. Wiping a computer that belonged to someone who has died? See our step-by-step guide.

Do I get proof the data was destroyed?

Yes — we provide a certificate of data destruction, which is important for GDPR and your own peace of mind.

What happens to the old hardware?

It’s recycled responsibly under WEEE regulations — kept out of landfill wherever possible, in line with our sustainability commitment.

Can you move my files before wiping?

Absolutely — we transfer anything you still need to your new device first, then wipe the old one. See new computer setup.
