Before handing over your electronics for recycling, there are a few important things you should do to ensure your personal data is protected and the device is ready for recycling:

  1. Back up your data: Before recycling your device, back up any important data you want to keep. This includes photos, documents, and any other personal information stored on the device.
  2. Erase your data: Once you have backed up your data, take the necessary steps to wipe your device clean of any personal information. Delete all files and applications, log out of all accounts, and reset the device to its factory settings.
