  Removing Personal Data From Computers Before for Recycling

 
 
Before recycling computers, cell phones, eReaders, tablets or any other electronic device, removing your personal data is necessary for your security. Accounts you set up to access iTunes or eBay may still be active so that the new owner of your electronic device can access your account with your credit card information.
 
 

There are two methods we offer for you to secure data from old devices:

  1. Removal of the hard drive from the computer. You can keep the computer for the just in case situation where there is data on the old hard drive that you may still need. High Tech House Calls can read the data off of the hard drive and copy the files you need to your new computer. Your old computer will be recycled without a hard drive that contains your personal data.
  2. Your hard drive can be re-formatted. This erases the contents of the hard drive.  For other devices such as cell phones and tablets, those devices can be reset to a factory default. The device will look the same as when you first bought it home with none of your data on it.

Once you device is secure, High Tech House Calls can recycling your equipment legally or help you sell it through eBay or other buyer/seller websites.
