FAQs

When you recycle computers is there a risk that our data can be seen by others?

No, all the hard drives in computers we receive are electrically degaussed then physically crushed. There is no risk of your data being seen by anyone else. We are registered to ISO standard 27001: Information security and follow rigid procedures with regards to the safety of your data.

Can you certify that our disks have been destroyed?

Yes, we can provide a certificate of destruction at a small charge. This will assist you to comply with your data protection legislation and internal audit procedures.

What are WEEE regulations?

These regulations require that all waste electrical items be stored and treated separately to other waste streams to ensure maximum re-use and recycling. Domestic electrical waste can normally be recycled at your local civic amenity facility. Jadestone deals primarily with local authorities, schools, NHS trusts and companies to ensure all electrical waste is correctly disposed of and that our customers meet and exceed all the relevant legislations and regulations.

Is mercury released from your lamp collection process?

No, all the fluorescent tubes are bulked and stored into a separate waste stream and sent to a central recycling facility. No mercury is released during our process.
