Testimonials

 

"Computer Aid assumes full legal liability for the PCs; offers guaranteed WEEE compliance; environmental tracking of any unusable parts and uses advanced data erasure software to guarantee data removal to a Communications Electronics Security Group (CESG) approved standard. This means that we can be assured that their service helps us comply with relevant legislation."

 

"City of London Police recognises the important work done by Computer Aid International and was happy to make a donation to the project. Their assistance made disposing of the hardware easier and safer, and is now giving someone else a chance to learn about and benefit from the technology. We hope to make further donations to Computer Aid in the future."

 

"We are very happy to be involved in such a successful charity and it is a great opportunity for Investec to help provide schools with the equipment that can help change the lives of children across developing countries. We felt that Computer Aid's appeal fitted very well with our own CSR programme and was an effective, safe and environmentally friendly way of re-using our replaced IT equipment."

 

"Orange has been happy to support the work of Computer Aid as it's a great opportunity to contribute to fantastic causes whilst reusing our old computer equipment.  We felt Computer Aid was a good fit with our sustainability agenda, as well as keeping the IT guys happy with their rigorous standards of data erasure.  We hope to do lots more exciting stuff together in the future"

 

"Ricoh has a strong environmental and CSR policy, along with high standards for security and data protection. Computer Aid International fit these requirements well and we are happy that others are benefiting from our donation."

 

“We’re very proud to be involved with Computer Aid, who have provided Royal Mail Group with the opportunity to help young people in less fortunate circumstances. It’s a great feeling to know that school children around the world now have the chance to learn computer skills on our redundant PCs enabling them to work towards a brighter future.

Not only do we feel we’re giving the equipment to a worthwhile cause, we’re being more environmentally friendly which is important to us as a business. Full marks to Computer Aid for helping organisations like Royal Mail to ‘do the right thing’ and in doing so, help improve the lives of others”.

 

"Computer Aid made donating these PCs extremely straightforward by assuming full legal liability for the equipment we sent and providing documentation to prove our compliance with electrical waste and payment card industry regulations. I'm proud to say that our IT division already supports many local charities but with this donation to Computer Aid we are also able to make a difference to those in need even further afield which is a win-win solution for all concerned."

 

"We needed to use an organisation which would help us meet our obligations under the Data Protection Act - Computer Aid International had a certified data and applications disposal process which met our requirements extremely well. Our [desktop refurbishment] project was a huge success and Computer Aid International helped us make it so."

 

"We liked Computer Aid because we knew that they were donating our PCs to some great causes in the developing world. It is naturally also very important for Virgin that we have complete reassurance that all information stored on our PCs is data wiped. By wiping the hard disk to US military standards and removing all sensitive data, Computer Aid gives us this peace of mind"
