We collect, data wipe, refurbish and reuse your unwanted IT equipment, making refurbished items available to low income families.
Every year businesses dispose of millions of items of IT equipment — much of which is reusable. At the same time families living on low incomes cannot afford the computers that they need to play a real part in society.
Children are falling behind at school as education becomes more IT centred, unemployed people cannot develop the skills and experience they need to compete in the job market, and elderly people cannot use communication tools like Skype that would reduce their social isolation.
The most common way for businesses to manage old computers and IT equipment has been to consign them to a storage cupboard or room where they languish until the room is full or needs to be cleared. Whilst this may be a practical way to deal with the problem, it poses a huge risk to a company. Unless the computer – and more importantly the data on the computer – can be proven to be managed in line with GDPR regulations regarding security and access then the company can face a fine of up to £500,000.
