Introduction
Last updated: 30 October 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Tech Labz, trading as Secure Data Wiping ("we", "us", "our"), collects, uses and protects personal information when you visit securedatawiping.com, request a quote or use our services. We are committed to handling personal data in line with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Information We Collect
Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:
- Contact details: name, organisation, job title, email address, telephone number and address
- Enquiry and job details: the equipment you want wiped, quantities, locations, collection preferences and anything you tell us in forms, emails, WhatsApp or calls
- Account and transaction information: quotes, orders, invoices and payment records
- Technical data: IP address, browser type, device information and pages visited, collected through cookies and similar technologies
- Communications: records of correspondence with us
We do not knowingly collect personal data from children, and our services are aimed at organisations.
Data on Devices We Wipe
Equipment sent for wiping may contain personal data belonging to you or your customers, staff or patients. We do not access, copy or keep the contents of devices. Our process is to erase that data and record the result. Where any handling of that data is necessary for the service, we act on your documented instructions as a processor, and the terms of our agreement with you apply. See our guide to GDPR and data erasure for how this fits the wider legal picture.
How and Why We Use Your Information
| Purpose | Lawful basis |
|---|---|
| Responding to enquiries and providing quotes | Taking steps at your request before entering a contract; legitimate interests |
| Providing wiping, destruction and certificates | Performance of a contract |
| Invoicing and keeping financial records | Contract; legal obligation |
| Operating and improving our website and services | Legitimate interests |
| Marketing emails to business contacts about similar services | Legitimate interests, with an opt-out in every message; consent where required |
| Complying with legal and regulatory obligations | Legal obligation |
International Transfers
Some providers may process data outside the UK. Where this happens, we take steps so that your information remains protected, for example by using providers in countries with UK adequacy regulations or by using approved safeguards such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or the UK Addendum to the EU standard contractual clauses.
How Long We Keep Information
We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes above. As a guide, enquiry records are kept while the enquiry is live and for a reasonable period afterwards, and financial and certificate records are kept for the period required by law and good record-keeping practice. We then delete or anonymise the data.
Security
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against loss, misuse and unauthorised access. No online transmission is completely secure, so please avoid sending sensitive information by email where you can use a safer route, and contact us if you are unsure.

Under UK data protection law you have the right to:
- Be informed about how we use your data
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Have inaccurate data corrected
- Have data erased in certain circumstances
- Restrict or object to certain processing, including direct marketing
- Receive your data in a portable format where applicable
