There are audited logistics providers and sealed lock boxes with remote tracking for data-bearing items that are transported from a customer site to one of our processing centers.
In order to ensure that all data is erased, GP employs established and specified protocols. You can have confidence in GP's audited protocols to protect your company's privacy and good name when it comes to handling old inventory.
