We understand data privacy is a genuine concern. We recommend that you do a factory reset before handing over the device.
We could also erase data on your phone and tablet for a small fee, using internationally approved software (used by leading brands in the USA and Europe). The data erasure will be done in your presence and takes an average of 2 to 3 minutes. Once completed we will instantly send you a data wipe certificate as proof of data erasure.

Android Erasure

High Level (3 Times) – DoD 5220.22-M – Overwrite the data with a value, then with the inverse of that value, then with a random value, verifying the write after each step. The first two wipes theoretically pull the magnetic field fully in one direction, then fully in the other, eliminating any residue of the original value. Data is overwritten in 1st pass with 0’s, 2nd pass with 1’s, and the last pass with random segments for data sanitization.


iOS Erasure

The defaulted Erasure for iOS is Secure Cryptographic Erase. The data on the device is encrypted by default, a new AES-256 encrypted file system is added and the old encryption keys are permanently removed during the erasure process. Once the device Secure Erase is completed we can regain the connection to the device and update the Erasure status. This encrypted file system replacement makes the recovering of old data impossible.

By trading in your device, you can save money on the purchase of a new device. Additionally, you contribute positively to the environment and the circular economy by giving your device a second life.
