Are my personal information and data safe?

We recommend that you delete your data before sending your laptop to us, but if for any reason you haven`t it`s not a problem.

Data Security is a top priority for us as a business. When we receive any laptops, our skilled engineers erase and reformat the hard drive and any other storage media/ devices. This removes any data and any sensitive information.

We take data removal very seriously and you can rest assured that any personal files, and information that you`ve stored on your machine, will be securely erased and never recovered.

I`ve chosen to post my laptop. How should I pack and send it?

If you choose to post your laptop to us, the process is very simple. We`ll email you within 5 minutes of submitting the form, confirming we have your request. The email will contain a link to print out a label with your unique reference code ID on there and our address. There’s also a form that you`ll need to pop inside the box - make sure you do this or we won`t know who the laptop has come from!

Please make sure that your laptop is packaged adequately and the box secured. Click here to see our handy packaging guide for tips on how to prepare your laptop for shipping. If it arrives damaged or does not arrive at all we cannot accept responsibility, therefore we`d recommend that you send it to us insured with the postal service or a courier. If you select this method we`ll give you a £5 postage refund if you decide to sell us your laptop. We`ll email you as soon as it`s here with us for your peace of mind!
