Certified data erasure with Blancco

Not every data storage device needs to be destroyed. Working laptops, desktops, servers and smartphones can also be securely wiped. With certified data erasure, all data is completely and verifiably removed using software. The device remains intact and can be reused afterwards.

Reuzado erases data storage devices using Blancco Certified Data Erasure, recognised worldwide as the standard for secure data erasure. Reuzado is a Blancco ITAD Gold Partner. You will receive a certificate for each data storage device, and the residual value of reusable equipment is offset against the costs.

How certified data erasure works

1. Registration

Please send us a list of the appliances, including the quantities and, preferably, the make and model. You will receive a no-obligation estimate of the costs and the potential return.

2. Secure collection

Our own drivers collect the equipment. The lorries are fitted with cameras, track-and-trace systems and secure storage facilities.

3. Registration

In our secure warehouse, every device is registered, weighed and assigned a unique tracking number. You can track everything via the Circu-IT customer portal.

4. Erasing with Blancco

Every data storage device is erased using Blancco. If erasure is not possible – for example, in the case of a faulty disc – the data storage device is physically destroyed.

5. Certificate and reuse

You will receive a certificate for each data storage device. Reusable equipment is prepared for a second life and the residual value is taken into account.

Benefits of data erasure

  • Data demonstrably and completely deleted
  • Certificate per data carrier, suitable for audits and GDPR-compliant
  • Equipment remains intact and can be reused
  • The residual value is offset against the costs
  • Reuse in accordance with the EN 50614 standard

When should you opt for physical destruction?

Deletion only works on data storage media that are in good working order. We physically destroy faulty discs, or data storage media for which your organisation requires maximum security, using a DIN 66399 shredder. Read more about destroy data storage media and destroy hard drives.

Data erasure and hardware buy-back in one

Would you like to not only securely wipe decommissioned equipment, but also sell it? At hardware buyout We combine certified data erasure with a fair residual value. This means that disposing of old IT equipment is often cost-neutral or even profitable. Take a look at our other services for data destruction.

Frequently asked questions about data deletion

What is the difference between data erasure and data destruction?

With data erasure, the data is deleted using software and the device remains usable. With data destruction, the data storage medium itself is physically destroyed. Erasure is the most sustainable option for functioning equipment; destruction is necessary for faulty data storage media or where maximum security is required.

Is it really impossible to recover deleted data?

Why isn’t formatting or a factory reset enough?
