Guidelines for mobile devices

If you are recycling a mobile device or tablet, please read carefully!

GCER’s priority is to refurbish an eligible electronic device such as mobile device or tablet. To help make it possible, please adhere to the following preparation guidelines prior to the event drop off:

• Apple devices: remove iCloud lock or remote management. You do not need to access each individual device to clear individual device pin locks.
• Android devices: remove all pin locks to place these in ‘developer mode’.

GCER uses proprietary software to clear the data, verify the data has been wiped, collect serial numbers and issue certificates based on this secure data destruction.

In the event GCER cannot access Apple mobile devices and tablets due to iCloud lock or remote management, Green Century Electronics can still wipe them and verify the data destruction. The device will not be reused.

In the event GCER cannot access Android mobile devices and tablets due to pin locks, GCER cannot wipe or destroy data because the proprietary software is unable to be accessed. Therefore, GCER can only physically destroy the mobile devices or tablets. The device will not be reused.

For more information about data security and preparation of other manufactured electronic devices for reuse, please contact GCER at 503-764-9963, ext.0, or visit www.greencenturyonline.net.
