Before any device or storage media is reused, sold, or disposed of, all data is permanently removed using industry-standard data wiping tools or encryption key destruction.

Equipment that cannot be securely wiped or is no longer functional is physically destroyed or handed over to certified e-waste disposal vendors.

3) Reuse Protocols

Devices intended for reuse within the organization are reimaged and reset to factory conditions, ensuring no residual data remains.

When outsourcing disposal, TestInvite only partners with vendors that certify secure data destruction in compliance with applicable privacy regulations.
