IMPORTANT NOTICE
Our secure data erasure process is highly effective, and the software used obtained EAL 2+ certification on a data erasure security target and received evaluation by a Common Criteria for Information Technology Security Evaluation certified lab. This rigorous certification is the most comprehensive certification currently available.
Your data cannot be recovered. This highly advanced software provides the highest level of security, but it also means you need to export any files or information you may want to keep before making a donation. We cannot recover files from a wiped hard drive and it is against our policy to access any files of a donated device.
When you make a donation to Tech-Takeback, you confirm that you are happy for all data to be erased and that you are either the device owner, or have permission from the device owner, to destroy personal information.

We care about protecting your personal data - that's why we erase or destroy every piece of data that we receive.
We use White Canyon WipeDrive Enterprise for all our erasures. This software works by overwriting every single piece of data on a device/hard drive and then verifies this was successful. Only if it can verify that 100% has been erased successfully will it be considered to have passed. Nothing is left on the hard drive including the original operating system.
If the erasure cannot be 100% guaranteed, the hard drive will be shredded to ensure that data is inaccessible.

From 1st May 2021, we will no longer be providing data erasure certificates as standard.
Our data erasure process continues to operate to the same rigorous standards and data-bearing items will always be professionally erased.
Certificates are available upon request.
