When we do the hardware refresh or replacement that could affect the data, we would generally fully backup the system before performing any actions to ensure no data is being lost.

Please note, we do keep info for a while just in case if anything is being found missing within the stipulated time frame but we do not keep the information any further than the stipulated time and destroy all information immediately after that through our data wiping system.

There might be an additional cost which is discussed with the customer prior before performing the job.

To build a personal relationship with our clients and be on praiseworthy terms, our geeks sometimes call the client from their personal number, during this exchange, if any highly unlikely event such as arguments or dispute occur, and the client is not satisfied with a particular geek, then we should be informed so that we can assess the situation and take a proper course of action in response.
